explanation: Principal airport of Tokyo and its environment. Initial airport of Tokyo, Haneda being saturated, the government decided to build a new airport in Chiba prefecture in 1966. Due to a protestation coming from farmers and students, the airport opened very lately in 1978 with only one runway. In order to reach the airport from Tokyo, take a train from Tokyo or Ueno railroad stations (one hour of trip) or a bus from major stations and hotels (between one and half and 2 hours of trip)
