Ambient Temp around Dec are 12C highest to lowest 5C. Still same...Cold wind are the killing part. One cold wind blow to you...your teeth also will automatic fight each other.

Can you describe abit or show us your photo of what you wear normally when u go out during Winter at Tokyo?
I really interested on Jpnese Winter dressing at Tokyo le.
I dont want to be overdressed or underdressed and become the laughing stock for them.

For scarf, an alternative for guys & gals who want something easier and not really fashionable ..Use a BUFF!

Since I hv a buff for my Mountain biking activities, I used the same buff during my winter Holiday too..Not expensive..nowadays got lotsa cheapo brand dy and price from RM15 till RM50..You can find it in those small stalls ~ Mid Valley, The Curve & even I found one inside GM wholesale market in Klang for RM15..I grabbed that one recently haha.

Scarf/buff is equally important bcos one of teh worse exposed skin is your ear, lips & neck..Your ear will instantly freeze badly once the cold wind as what regentcid mentioned blow even the weather say ~ 6C..Once strong wind, temperature might dropped to zero. and very painful ear & crack lip for sure..sometime, nose also bleeding..well my daighter nose blee once in Seoul haha

Buff seems so cool!
I would definitely prefer it more than scarf which more preferable for gals.

I'm planning to go on this coming Oct... mainly Tokyo or maybe Kyoto for 7 days.. do you guys have a sample itinerary ?

I thought scarf looks more fashion and trendy?
Last time i use white scarf cover neck + jacket's tudung to cover my ear and whole head

I;m going end of next month, yeah

Do you DIY or follow group tour?

DIY free and easy to Osaka

I did mentioned Buff is more rugged type & less fashioneable. When I used it in Seoul, the only ppl using Buff tehre were those construction workers, salesmen ajushi & etc.. + me.. haha ..furthermore I used those cheapo black coloured thin mask type buff..really like rempit haha

Mind share with your itinerary pls?

Tokyo 2days
Osaka 3days

Details will update soon

What are the things to do, see, eat in Osaka?

Do your own home work first if you want to get my advise.

Closed 22 May - June 1.

Hmm Nikko a bit too far. Probably will stop by Yokohama or Kamakura. Actually want to combine with Odaiba, don't know if enough time. Then again, I think there's nothin much to see in Odaiba right?

Odaiba must go at night. The Rainbow Bridge..

Odaiba are Tokyo most romantic places....Tonight Japan Obaiba must be very crowded......Holy place for love bird.
