Somewhere you leave in the morning. Buses count as much as trains — most of what people come to Japan to see is not on a railway line.

What is actually within a 10 minute walk

Straight-line distance from the building, measured against OpenStreetMap. Walking times use 80 m per minute, the convention used by Japanese property listings. Only about four in ten places in Japan have an English name in OpenStreetMap, so some names below appear in Japanese — still useful for showing to a taxi driver or matching a shopfront.

ATMs that take foreign cards

not in this reading33 found

Currency exchange

not scored1 found

Shown for information only. 197 exchange counters are mapped for the whole country, far fewer than exist, so they are never scored. If you have a card, the ATM count above is the more reliable answer.

Post office

Sends things home, and holds a Japan Post ATM that takes foreign cards — away from the cities this is often the only one within walking distance. Sub-post offices (簡易郵便局) frequently have no machine, so they are listed here but not counted as ATMs.
