October is cool and comfortable, but also one of the rainiest months. The Golden Week holiday (Oct 1-7) brings a massive influx of domestic tourists, making it the busiest time to visit. After the holiday, crowds thin out, and the weather remains pleasant.
Layers, a waterproof jacket, and an umbrella. Comfortable shoes for walking. A light sweater for cooler evenings.
Avoid visiting during Golden Week if you dislike crowds; book everything months in advance. After October 7, prices drop and crowds decrease. The rain can be heavy, so plan indoor activities.
