That tended to be the only place I found them, and yes, I definitely filled up my water bottles there.

This tip tends to work for all countries, not just Japan. Look for green parks on Google Maps, especially named ones, if you're trying to find water fountains.

That tip doesn’t work in China (or at least Beijing and Shanghai). But bottled water is one or two kuai, and someone should be selling somewhere.

Apparently you wouldn't want to drink the tap water there anyway, based on some cursory research.
