Connect with travelers with disabilities and welcoming locals, offering tips on accessible hotels, wheelchair-friendly attractions, and transportation in Japan. From Tokyo’s bustling Shibuya Crossing and historic Asakusa to Kyoto’s golden Kinkaku-ji, Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park, and the hot springs of Hakone, whether it’s your first visit or a return trip, this is the place to ask about accommodations, getting around, or inclusive activities – someone here has likely experienced it before. You’ll find personal stories, travel tips, and recommendations for cultural, historical, and nature experiences.

Reply To: Wheelchair accessible restaurants in Tokyo and Kyoto
My friend @allyhongo found this great list for Tokyo:

It is a list of great accessible restaurants. They are a bit fancier, but hey, how often do you come to Japan, right!
Of course, it is in Japanese… but Google Translate should work. If not, tell us which you are interested in and we can get more info.
I have been to the second one (for a government PR campaign) and can confirm it is good. (I think the owner’s son has a disability…?)
