  "faq": [
    {
      "question": "Which outing should I choose for my first Tokyo day?",
      "answer": "An old Tokyo morning is a welcoming introduction to temple streets, food and the river. For a vivid contrast, choose Meiji Jingu and Shibuya. Start with one outing: these are alternatives, not a checklist to squeeze into a single day."
    },
    {
      "question": "Do I need a railway pass for these outings?",
      "answer": "Not necessarily. With only a few rides, a rechargeable Suica or PASMO may be simpler. Compare any pass with the actual operators and journeys you will use; a Tokyo subway pass is not the same as a ticket for every train."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can I add Skytree, teamLab or a theme park?",
      "answer": "Yes, but give a major ticketed attraction its own time and check its official reservation and entry arrangements. This guide focuses on flexible neighbourhood outings. Tokyo Disney Resort, longer excursions and a full day at a major attraction need separate plans."
    },
    {
      "question": "What if I want to do less walking?",
      "answer": "Choose one main place and a nearby meal, then check the gate and station access notes. A garden, shrine or museum can still involve a long approach. Use a suitable train or taxi for a longer connection and leave room for rests."
    },
    {
      "question": "Do I need to book through Fumi?",
      "answer": "No. This guide and planner are free, and Fumi receives no booking commissions. Book directly with a venue where needed. The Fumi app is a separate interactive companion, with free credits to get started."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can I keep my day on my phone?",
      "answer": "Yes. Save favourites, choose your stops and share a day link or download the day sheet. The sheet keeps your Japanese place names and notes; new maps and directions need a connection. Saved choices stay in this browser, separately for each city."
