Some pages on chan.co.jp include real places, addresses, phone numbers, and websites. Those details are intended to help readers, but they should not be treated as guaranteed current or complete in every case.

Practical rule
Before making travel, booking, purchase, or timing decisions based on any listing or article, please confirm the latest details directly with the official business, venue, institution, or operator.
