• use proper walking shoes • public toilets are non-existent, go to toilets in dept stores or mall • also nursing rooms in dept stores or mall • portable stroller is available for rent • this particular model of Cybex stroller is so compact and ubiquitous in Japan, many tourists left their stroller at home just to get this in Japan https://shop.akachan.jp/shop/g/g250161000

I live in Tokyo! But also I guess it depends where you compare to? Where are there more public toilets?

Almost all parks have public toilets, even the rather small ones you'd find in very dense areas They're also surprisingly clean

Hit me up when you come back we can go toilet hunting 😂 😂 😂 FR tho I am constantly surprised about how common and clean public toilets are in this country, having been brought up in a place where there are absolutely zero, and even when they exist you usually don't want to use them (especially in stations!)
