🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect temperatures between +20°C and +28°C with high humidity (up to 82%). As it is the peak of the Tsuyu (rainy season), rain is very likely. Clothing: Wear light, breathable fabrics and comfortable waterproof shoes. Gear: A sturdy umbrella is essential; most convenience stores (7-Eleven/Lawson) sell high-quality clear umbrellas that look great in photos. Pro-Tip: The rain makes the greenery of Shinjuku Gyoen and Meiji Jingu look incredibly lush and vibrant—perfect for moody, romantic photography.
