Reply To: Alone in Japan, legs not strong
For My first trip to Japan I would probably describe myself similarly and though I was tired and legs hurt it was so wonderful to be there. True there aren’t a lot of park benches etc as Josh pointed out there are lovely cafes to have a coffee or tea that can help alleviate the legs. I can’t stress enough good shoes. Another time I was in Tokyo with a friend who has arthritis and a few times we walked between train stations rather than taking the train as she found the stairs difficult. Not sure if there are elevators in more stations.
