  • People travel to Japan for relaxation, culture, history, shopping and the food. But it's also perceived as being safe, clean and cheaper than usual, which are all important drivers since the pandemic, reports CNBC's Travel Eidtor Monica Pitrelli.

    I have been to Japan 3 times. Here is the list of why...
    1) Safety (unlike USA)
    2) Clean (unlike USA)
    3) Pleasant (unlike USA)
    4) Uniqueness (unlike USA)
    5) Affordability (unlike USA)
    6) Efficiency (unlike USA)

      I completely agree. I can add more, at least I think I represent most of Indonesian tourists about Japan.
      7) The food is just so delicious
      8) Every corner of Japan is INSTAGRAMABLE
      9) There are so many things that you can buy. From expensive items to cheap items for giving to your coworkers or relatives. It is in our culture to come back not with empty handed.
      10) Asian loves anime, so going to Japan is like a pilgrimage

      Exactly! I’m Brazilian and I’ve been living in Japan for 24 years, I work here, I pay taxes so Japan is my home now and it pisses me off when I see so many disrespectful tourists. If things go the way it is, Japanese people should speak out more! Like one day one tourist cut the line in from of me, ME! I simply said “Wtf are you thinking you’re doing? Go to the back of the line! I waited for hours and now you think you can just cut! LEAVE! OUT!” Yeah I was super rude because the Chinese woman hasn’t asked politely if she could cut the line if she had I would’ve said “I’m sorry I can’t allow you to do that, it’s not fair to all the people behind me! If we waited for hours, you can wait too! Make an effort! I bet it’s worth it! Good luck sweetie!” 😂

    I travel to Japan regularly since 2010. It’s clean, safe, people are respectful and polite. Very customer focused staff in restaurants and shops. Unfortunately because of bad tourist behavior, they have had to change the access to the Gion area in Kyoto. Tourists need to be respectful of the local culture like keeping their voices down on trains. Observe and try to fit in don’t act like rude tourists.

    I went to Tokyo for the first time in 2017. It wowed me so much I've since made it a yearly vacation spot (pausing only for COVID19). As a lone traveler, I especially appreciate the safety factor, which ironically is safer than my own home country. And despite the language differences, Japan has made significant accommodations for foreigners. The only thing the Japanese people ask in return is that you respect their culture, customs, and laws.

Such people are very rare, though. We hope that visitors to Japan will relax and enjoy the good things Japan has to offer.

    You can even feel to move to Japan for good when you get there. You can also experience the Shogun era if you visit famous Japanese Castles, just as the SHOGUN Movie you`ve watched recently.
    You have no choice. Just do it!

    *In Japan, learning that enriches the mind is called "kyou-you." 😊😊😊When translated into English, ``kyou-you'' becomes ``education,'' so it cannot be translated correctly and it is difficult to gain understanding. kyou-you is something we acquire from our parents, grandparents, teachers, local uncles and aunts, friends, lovers, nature, religion, books, history (historical facts), culture, etc.😄😁

    I'm Japanese, but I've helped people from other countries get lost several times. Japanese people are not good at English, but there are many people who can't leave people in trouble alone. Please enjoy your trip to Japan. Okinawa has a different food culture and national character, so it's fun to go there. Ishigaki Island is recommended.

    Japan is a hyper capitalistic country that embraced globalism, yet proud of its culture, keeping it alive and unique, and at the same time generating new form of media/entertainment fusing foreign and traditional ideas, never scream "appropriation", always happy to share with others. There's a reason why Japanese games and Animes are so popular in the world.
    Couple that with a population trained from childhood about "ask not what society can do for you, ask what you can do for society". The secret to maintaining a clean, safe and orderly society.

      I'm Japanese and have traveled to about 50 countries. I've noticed that extremely rude tourists are a problem in Japan. However, I also see that some foreign tourists are so concerned about not breaking our rules that they don't fully enjoy their visit.
      As a traveler, it’s impossible to learn all the local customs, even though I always study guidebooks and do extensive research before visiting a new country. You don’t need to worry too much about making small mistakes.
      I believe Japan doesn’t have as many taboos compared to other countries because it is religiously open. Just use common sense. If a behavior isn’t nice behavior in your country, it likely isn’t acceptable in Japan. For example, don’t use the train’s hand straps for exercise, and do not break a branch off a tree to take a nice picture.

    Even as time goes by and the surface of a town changes, nothing changes in the underlying foundation of the unique Japanese culture.
    The common root of the creation of originality in Japanese culture is the uniqueness of its geopolitical location and the influence of its natural environment.
    Even if they import culture and knowledge from abroad, they are not dominated by it, and after a certain period of time, they select the content, integrate it with their own culture, improve it, and eventually create a new style because of the influence of their unique natural environment.
    Japan's original country name "NIPPON”means "the land under the sun" , but another traditional country name is "YAMATO ,WA ” , meaning “Peacefull Harmony (among People and Nature)”. So Japan's name means “the Land under the Sun” and” the Land of "Great Harmony of People and Nature,”
    The history of Japan is very old, about 2,000 years since the Emperor's reign, but humans began to live in villages and communities in this island nation about 14,000 years ago, during “the JOMON pottery” culture. (That's 30,000 years ago, if you count the Neolithic period.)
    Surrounded on all sides by the sea and geographically isolated from the Eurasian continent in the Pacific Ocean, this island nation has a warm and humid climate, and because it is a volcanic island, mountains occupy about 80% of its land, it is rich in underground clear water resources through its natural filtration system, and is blessed with diverse vegetation and fishery resources.
    For this reason, people have lived here for tens of thousands of years, enjoying the abundant nature and living in peace with nature.
    Since ancient times, the people of this land have respected human harmony and have lived in peace by working together as a group.
    However, while the natural environment of this island nation is rich to live, it is also harsh to live and has both light and dark sides.
    They have shared and enjoyed the blessings of nature by pooling their wisdom and collectively overcoming numerous severe and harsh natural disasters, such as frequent volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunami, summer typhoons, and heavy snowfall in winter.
    This is because this island nation has a harsh natural environment that cannot be overcome by a single person.
    Individuals are too weak to face the fury of nature when natural disasters suddenly strike the wealth they have built up and can destroy their cities overnight.
    That is why Japanese people believed that they should suppress their egos, avoid conflict among humans, cooperate with each other to create a livable environment and maintain public cleanliness, and join forces to prevent disasters before they occur and to restore the environment immediately after they have occurred.
    They believed that this is the most wise, efficient, and rational way to maintain peace and freedom in each other's lives, this would bring about better results rather than to create more chaos and conflict by insisting on each other's selfishness.
    because of the environment in which disasters frequently occur that cannot be resolved by individual power alone.
    And this thinkings have given rise to Japan's unique teachings, culture, and behavior.
    For example, it is fundamentally connected to the Japanese mindset of "Behaving in a way that does not bother others in public places," "Helping each other if someone is in trouble," and "Not doing bad things even if no one is watching."
    And one of the teachings of the ancient Shinto religion, "Purify yourself (kiyome) by getting rid of Defilement (kegare)," has been taken over today as a basic manner to "Not pollute even in public places," to “Always keep the environment and yourself clean”, and to make everyone, regardless of status, gender, or age. feel comfortable equally.
    The warm and humid island climate is not only a paradise for humans and animals, but also a paradise for bacteria and microorganisms to thrive.
    Without cleanliness in daily life, bacteria can easily multiply and food can spoil.
    It is clear why the ancient Japanese Shinto religion taught the importance of “maintaining a clean environment on a daily basis. Even before the development of science, they strictly taught cleanliness because they knew that laziness and uncleanliness would lead to plague and other disasters through the growth of invisible bacteria, leading to the death and destruction of a people.
    This is the ancient wisdom to survive safely in the dangerous natural environment unique to this island nation(the climate in Japan, unlike that of the continent, is humid, and pathogens can easily multiply.)
    Over the years, this wisdom to live has been formed into a unique Japanese behavior and culture that is different from that of other countries.
    The Japanese people have lived in this land since ancient times, and based on their experience of the coexistence of heaven and hell, they believed that human beings are not the main actors in the natural world, but are only one member of the natural world and one of the objects that are kept alive by the natural environment.
    Therefore, with an attitude of humility, human beings thought that harmony with the natural world, other living creatures, and nature, as well as cooperative behavior and peaceful harmony among other human beings, were important.
    After all, They have thought this is the wisest way to live happily for the limited period of one's human life on this earth.
    The ancient name of Japan, "YAMATO" or "WA" (peaceful harmony between people and nature), represents the wishes and reality of the people who have been trying to survive in the rich and at the same time harsh natural environment unique to island countries, which is different from the dry and stable land of the Eurasian continent.
    And it is in this ancient Japanese country name "YAMATO/WA" that the essence of Japanese culture, the origin and secret of its unique culture, which is very different from the cultures of other Asian countries on the continent, is hidden.
    What is happening in Japan is definitely a phenomenon on this same planet, not on Mars.
    If you can't take it that way, it is because you have been under the illusion that you know everything about this planet when you know only a part of it.
    And the reason why the phenomena in Japan look so special to you is because the natural environment in Japan is different from the natural environment of your birthplace.
    Not only human beings, but also animals, plants, and microorganisms, all “life forms” that were born on the earth, adapt their behavior to the environment in order to survive.

    Japan has become a popular touristic destination since the Japanese government changed policy and decided to attract mass tourism. They did a lot of things to make that possible and in the span of 6 years the number of international tourists increased by 5 folds and that was before the pandemic which stopped that progression. Perhaps in the US they just figured out that Japan had become a popular touristic destination.
