5 more tips for your japan trip travel tokyo culture difference garbage bag restaurant menu google

Five more tips for your Japan trip. Number one, when choosing a restaurant, you can trust Google review with a rating over 3.6. Japanese people tend to rate restaurants strictly compared to overseas, so low scores might be harsher than you expect. Number two, in Japan, people stand on the left side of the escalator in KTO region like Tokyo and the right side in Kai region like Kyoto and Osaka. Walking on escalators are common, but recently in some areas due to safety concerns, it’s discouraged. So, be mindful and follow the locals. Number three, be quiet on transits and avoid eating. Number four, some restaurants will not be able to accommodate changes like vegan requests or allergies. So, if you really want to visit a particular place, contact them in advance and see what they can do. Number five, carry a small trash bag with you because public trash bins are very rare in Japan. This is partly due to the safety concerns after past incidents, strict recycling rules, and general public’s habit to keep the streets
