Rainy season ideas: ① visit a museum
As genkidesu wrote on May 16th, the rainy season was declared in Southern Kyushu on that day. It won't be long until the rest of the country officially enters the rainy season. The thing with the rainy season is though, it doesn't rain every single day, so you can still catch a dry day here and there. But even on the rainiest days, there is plenty of things to do in Japan.
Visit a museum
Rainy season is the perfect time to check out museums near you. Moreover, you will find that there are excellent traveling / temporary exhibitions in museums around the country. There is always a great selection of exhibitions in Tokyo and the Greater Tokyo area. There is quite a lot of information online in English about exhibitions in the Tokyo area.
However, I would err caution about using AI to research what is on. In my experience, and I've tested it a lot, AI gets information for events wrong eight times out of ten. Using a search engine like Bing or Duckduckgo is more likely to give you up-to-date accurate results.
Moreover, if you use the search engine on City-cost it brings up a great selection of museums worth visiting in different parts of Japan. What museum will you go to this summer?
