Seeking Advice for Japan Trip (Dec 27 – Jan 4): Shinkansen, Shops, and New Year Celebrations!

Hi everyone!

I'm traveling to Japan with my partner from December 27th to January 4th, and I plan to visit Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo, and Mt. Fuji. I have a few questions:

  • Shinkansen Availability: Will the Shinkansen be running during this period?
  • Booking Shinkansen: When can I start booking tickets for the Shinkansen?
  • Shops During New Year: Will shops be open on New Year's Eve and New Year's (December 31st to January 2nd)?
  • New Year Fireworks: Are there any fireworks displays to welcome the New Year, and if so, where can I find them?
  • Travel Tips: Anything I should be aware of or look out for during this time?

Any further recommendations are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your help! 😊
