Streets in Japan are notoriously difficult to navigate. Japanese Penguin offers some advice on finding your way when the streets have no names. The bottom line?
[I]f you plan to drive in Japan, get GPS. If you have to walk or bike somewhere, make sure you have solid directions and know exactly where you’re going and how to get there. Directions from an English-speaking person are ideal, though at the very least you should carry a map. Finally, recognize that navigation in Japan is based on landmarks rather than street names, so it’s important to always be mindful of your surroundings.
