Accessibility: 30,000 steps?!
Plan Around Walking and Steps
Kristin and David Neusel
JAPAN, Japan
Japan is accessible in many ways, but still involves lots of walking and stairs.
Train stations are massive, and even when elevators are available, they’re often at the far ends of platforms. Attractions like temples, shrines, and castles frequently require climbing steps or walking on uneven stone paths.
Wear comfortable walking shoes and pack light for day trips. If you need accessibility information, the Japan National Tourism Organization has a dedicated resource: https://www.japan.travel/en/plan/accessibility/. For those who tire easily, consider building breaks into your itinerary—cafés and parks are perfect rest stops.
