Luggage行李 Problem in Japan

1 It’s a common常見的 scenario情節.

2 You’ve just arrived到達 in Japan and want to explore探索 but it’s still too early to check in to your hotel or Airbnb.

3 Alternatively或者, check-out for the previous以前的 place was at the special hour of 10 AM but your transportation運輸 onward向前 doesn’t depart離開 until much later in the day.

4 Talk about a massive大量的 headache頭痛!

5 Unbeknownst未知 to most first-time travelers旅行者, the problem of baggage行李 handling處理 is one of the most daunting畏縮的 challenges挑戰 they will face.

6 While hotel check-ins in Japan usually通常 start around 3–4 PM, some places let you leave your luggage before.

7 Doing so is often the least painful痛苦 option選項 but it can often be inconvenient不方便 due to由於 location地點.

8 What’s a traveler supposed應該 to do?

9 Contrary相反 to what you might think, carrying攜帶 large luggage while exploring the city is not a good idea.

10 In the crowded擁擠的 streets where people go about their daily日常 lives, you’ll only slow down pedestrian行人 traffic交通.

11 Bringing large luggage inside shops can be hazardous危險 as it prevents預防 other customers顧客 from navigating導航 the store.

12 Even worse, your bags can accidentally偶然 knock over merchandise商品 or displays顯示.

13 If this weren’t enough, the scruffy破舊的, sweaty出汗 backpacker背包客 look might be one of the few fashion trends趨勢 that will never be considered考慮 cool in Tokyo.

14 So what do you do when you’re burdened負擔 with baggage行李 but don’t want to waste half a precious寶貴 day waiting to move it somewhere else?

15 While you may not realize瞭解 it, you are far from alone in your plight困境.

16 Japan’s got your back on this one!

17 Believe相信 it or not, many Japanese also need to stow裝載 bags or luggage行李.

18 In fact, every major主要 train station車站 as well as many smaller stations and metro地鐵 stations have coin lockers available可用的.

19 In large train stations, there are usually lockers both inside and outside the ticket售票 gates大門.

20 There are typically two to three locker sizes available, including sizes big enough to hold a large suitcase手提箱.

21 Most of these are coin lockers and only accept 100 yen coins, but some high-tech高科技 lockers also accept credit cards.

22 Look at the signs around the station for the words “Coin Lockers” or ask station staff職員 for assistance協助 if you can’t find any signs標誌 indicating指示 their location地點.

23 In high-density高密度 areas, especially尤其 shopping districts地區, there are often經常 even more coin lockers available outside of the train station area.

24 Base charges基本費用 can start quite cheap便宜 and increase增加 every 3 or 6 hours or so.

25 If the lockers in the train stations are all full by the time you find them, you may still be in luck outside of the station.

26 Shibuya澀谷 Station, for example, has many coin lockers.

27 Shinjuku新宿 also has lockers outside the station area.

28 Got an extra額外 bag but don’t know what to do with it?

29 Tokyo Station offers a cloakroom衣帽間 service accepting luggage up to 2 meters米 in length長度 and 30 kg in weight重量.

30 At a cost of 600 yen per piece, this is not a bad option選項 for the big stuff東西.

31 You can find the cloak衣帽間 service reception in Tokyo Station at the JR East Travel Service Center.

32 The Travel Service Center is located near the north entrance but just ask a station attendant服務員 if you get lost.

33 Remember that they are only open until 8:30 PM, so you will need to pick up your stuff before then.

34 If neither of these locations is convenient方便 for you, it’s time to get creative創造力.

35 One option is to use a manga漫畫 store or internet cafe聯網咖啡館.

36 The downside缺點 is that these require要求 membership 會員資格and can be tricky棘手 for travelers.

37 Most places will accept your passport護照 but some may still require an address地址 or phone number in Japan.

38 On the bright side好的一面 , you can buy cheap package一套 deals that give you a private cubicle隔間, computer/internet, free drinks, and even access使用權 to a shower room淋浴房 sometimes.

39 Just be forewarned預警 that this is not as secure安全的 way to store貯藏 your items項目.

40 I do not recommend推薦 leaving something extremely極其 valuable價值 in an unattended無人看管 cubicle隔間.

41 There are combination-lock密碼鎖 safes保險箱 in some of these places to store valuables but they tend to be only for small items.

42 If you’ve checked out of your hotel in the morning and have quite a number of hours before your flight航班 or transportation運輸, this can be a really great option選項 because you will have a conveniently-located方便地分配 place to come back to and relax放鬆 whenever不論何時 you want, have free soft drinks不含酒精的飲料, and even grab抓住 a quick shower before在……之前 you head off.

43 With their large selection選擇 of manga and Japanese magazines, it may also be an excellent好的 chance機會 for you to peruse細讀 some of the pop culture文化 publications出版物 you may have been curious好奇 about.

44 This service connects連接 people with stuff東西 to stow裝載 and shops that have empty空的 space to store it.

45 You can search搜索 and reserve預訂 your nearest luggage行李 storage貯存 space online so there is no more need to look for open lockers or luggage storage counters櫃檯.

46 Furthermore此外, you may also store larger bags that would not fit適合 inside lockers too.

47 This is a great option for snowboards滑雪板, ski滑雪 equipment設備, instruments樂器, strollers嬰兒車, etc.
