Nagano station map

Many times you have just few minutes to change the trains at Nagano station. Its a bit confusing as
you have to get out of the Nagano station (to the right side) and go to the Subway on the street.
This MAP will save you lots of time as the trains to Yudanaka don't run frequently.

There is information center infront of Shinkansen gates !

- travel by CHUO TAXI - direc transfer between Narita,Haneda and any Hotel in Nagno, Niigata 
  or oposit.  Narita - Yudanaka Shibu Onsen - 12.000 per person (5hours).  Many foreign    
  tourist and also me in person use Chuo Taxi because of - Easy English. Online booking, almost
  the same cost like trains, you don't have to change trains and worry about baggage. There is
  only one negative - it takes bit longer time.
