Accuracy

I try to keep the practical bits current, but Tokyo changes fast — hours, closures, exhibitions, opening ceremonies. Please always confirm anything time-sensitive with the operator’s own site before you set out. If you spot something I’ve got wrong, please tell me through the contact page.
