Question
I'm a woman in my twenties traveling alone in Tokyo. It looks like there will be a rainy day during my stay — do you have any suggestions for a relaxed way to enjoy the day without going outdoors too much?

I recommend spending the day around Tokyo Station! ☔ The station itself can get a bit busy, but the surrounding area is surprisingly calm — and the best part is that you can move around without getting wet. Most nearby buildings are connected by underground walkways, so it's super easy to explore.
If you're looking for somewhere cozy, check out Yaesu Public inside Tokyo Midtown Yaesu (directly connected to the station!). 🍷✨ It's an open, relaxed space with a great view of Tokyo Station where you can enjoy wine, beer, and delicious food.
The vibe feels like a casual public lounge, and it's totally comfortable even if you're alone. I love spending rainy afternoons there, just sipping a drink and watching the trains come and go. 🚉☕
