About Tsukuba City (slightly updated from the Bulletin #3 version)
Tsukuba city is located about 50 km north of Tokyo. A shuttle bus
from Narita (Tokyo International) Airport to Tsukuba City Center
runs 9 times a day, between 07:20 and 20:00, which takes about 100
minutes. The conference site, EPOCHAL Tsukuba Congress Center is
about 10 min walk from Tsukuba Center bus terminal. We booked
rooms at nearby hotels, most of which are in walking distance from
the conference site and from the bus terminal. Special conference
rates are set between 6,300yen and 10,000yen for a single room. The
Hotel reservation should be made through our website. As of Jun/1,
all the lower fare rooms are full, and rooms at the two Okura Frontier
Hotels are still available. KEK is located about 10 km north of
the city center, and Tsukuba Mountain is about 14 km further north.
The city map and the shuttle bus schedule are available on the
hotel reservation and the Tsukuba city pages of our website.
