Weather in the Far East

Tokyo’s weather is a showcase of Japan’s four distinct seasons, each offering its own charm and experiences. Spring, from March to May, is a dream with mild temperatures of 10–20°C and the iconic cherry blossoms painting the city in shades of pink. It’s perfect for picnics in Ueno Park or strolls under blooming sakura trees along the Meguro River.

Summer, from June to August, brings warmth and humidity, with temperatures ranging from 25–35°C. This is also the season of festivals and fireworks, where you can enjoy vibrant celebrations like the Sumida River Fireworks or sip cold drinks in traditional yukata. Be prepared for occasional rainy days in June during the tsuyu (rainy season).

Autumn, from September to November, is breathtaking, with temperatures between 15–25°C and the city glowing in fiery reds, oranges, and yellows. It’s an ideal time for exploring Meiji Shrine or taking a day trip to Mount Takao to see the autumn foliage.

Winter, from December to February, is cool and crisp, with temperatures between 0–10°C. While snow is rare, clear blue skies dominate, making it the perfect time to admire Mount Fuji from afar or explore the cozy charm of Tokyo’s izakayas. No matter the season, Tokyo’s weather ensures a dynamic and unforgettable adventure.

Things to do in Tokyo

Tokyo is renowned for its neighborhoods, each with its unique character and attractions. Shibuya, with its famous scramble crossing and vibrant nightlife, epitomizes the city's youthful energy and trendsetting fashion. Shinjuku is a hub of entertainment and business, home to the bustling Kabukicho district and the peaceful Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden. Ginza, known for its luxury shopping and fine dining, contrasts with the quirky and colorful streets of Harajuku, where fashion and creativity thrive. 

Tokyo is also a city of contrasts, where tranquil parks and gardens, like Ueno Park and the Imperial Palace East Gardens, offer peaceful retreats from the urban hustle. Seasonal festivals, such as the cherry blossom (sakura) viewing in spring and the Sumida River Fireworks in summer, showcase the city's deep-rooted traditions and community spirit.

Explore the historic Asakusa district, home to the majestic Senso-ji Temple, where you can soak in the serenity of ancient rituals amidst the lively streets of Nakamise, filled with delicious treats and unique souvenirs. Then, make your way to the trendy Harajuku neighborhood, where vibrant fashion meets quirky shops down Takeshita Street—perfect for that unforgettable Instagram moment! Next, dive into Tokyo’s culinary scene that will have your taste buds dancing! From savoring sushi at Tsukiji Outer Market to indulging in a steaming bowl of ramen in Shinjuku, the food here is an experience unto itself.
