3 Tips to Help You Travel Like a Pro in Japan
Are you going to Japan? Make sure to follow these 3 tips to make your journey as smooth as possible and to have a leg-up on other tourists!
- Japan is a cash-based society, so it's important to have enough yen on hand for your trip. You can withdraw cash from ATMs at convenience stores or banks, but make sure to check if your bank card is compatible with Japanese ATMs. You can also exchange currency at airports or banks, but the exchange rates may not be as favorable.
- Japan is known for its efficient and punctual transportation system, but it can also be crowded and busy, especially during peak travel seasons. To avoid long lines and wait times, it's recommended to reserve your tickets and seats in advance. This includes train tickets, bus tickets, and even restaurant reservations. Many popular attractions also offer online ticket reservations, so make sure to check their websites beforehand.
- Chopsticks are a common utensil in Japan, and it's important to know how to use them properly to avoid any cultural faux pas. Some basic tips include not sticking chopsticks upright in rice (as it resembles a funeral ritual), not passing food with chopsticks (as it's associated with funerals), and not using chopsticks to point or gesture. It's also important to know how to hold chopsticks correctly and how to use chopstick rests.
