Hello! It’s my first time traveling alone to Japan next week. I’ll stay in Kyoto for a day then travel to Tokyo via shinkansen. Are Kyoto and Tokyo stations as overwhelming as how they look or is it easy to navigate? Also, do I need to load my IC card to enter? Thanks in advance
Edit: Thank you all for the advices! addtl question: I already booked a non-reserved seat via klook, since its non-reserved, can I use it anytime of the day I booked it? (in klook, I have to choose a schedule but according to google it says if i miss the train, i can hop in on the next one, so im confuse)
