What should I pay attention to when traveling to Japan?

6. There are many kinds of restaurants in Japan, including Japanese food, Italian food, Chinese food and French food, each with its own strengths; Different grades of restaurants, high-end, mid-range and fast food, have good cost-effective choices according to the budget. However, Japanese restaurants generally do not have the habit of bringing their own food.

7. It is said that the Japanese are quiet, but it is not. Go to izakaya. All the people who drink happily, talk loudly and sing loudly are Japanese. Japanese restaurants have different speaking volumes according to different uses. Many fashionable high-end restaurants and Michelin-starred shops can't bring children in (be sure to confirm when making an appointment), so it's natural to be quiet and elegant and not talk loudly; If you go to izakaya, you can definitely talk about drinking in a big bowl and let off steam.

8. The service attitude of Japanese catering industry is very good. If you break a plate, usually you won't. I don't need compensation. The waiter will also ask if you are injured and deal with the scene sincerely. Unlike Europe and America, Japanese restaurants don't need to tip by the meter, so it is more obvious that this professionalism is rare and there is no beauty of money temptation. Therefore, eating in Japanese restaurants, according to one's ability, and having as many CDs as possible may be the best service for waiters. Some group tours may need to tip drivers, please confirm with each other.

9. When eating in a Japanese restaurant, you often have to take off your shoes and sit on the tatami. Therefore, a warm reminder, before going out, check whether the shoes are easy to put on and take off, and whether there are holes in the socks, and then go to the Japanese restaurant. In addition, there are toilet slippers in the bathroom of Japanese restaurants, which should be put back in the bathroom after use. Don't accidentally put it back in the tatami room, it will make people think they are drunk. Japanese usually wipe off water stains with paper towels after washing their hands in the bathroom sink for the next person to use.

10. Eat in a Japanese restaurant. If you want to take photos of delicious food, you should have no problem in popular middle and low-end restaurants. However, for high-end restaurants or Michelin-rated restaurants, it is best to ask the waiter in advance and ask for permission before taking pictures, because some restaurants don't-I don't want problems with their boutiques. As for photographing the environment in the restaurant, or it is possible to photograph other dining guests in the restaurant, regardless of the level, it is best to ask the permission of the restaurant staff before photographing. Japanese portrait rights and portrait rights have become too sensitive to the confidentiality of personal information, so we must be very careful.

The third is shopping.

1 1. During the Spring Festival, many Japanese merchants actively launched various discounted goods. The depreciation of the yen makes shopping more affordable and intimate. I suggest going to big department stores and shopping malls in Japan as much as possible. Such big-name shops are places that Japanese people like to go. They are very cheap and have a tax exemption system, which can exempt foreign tourists from 8% consumption tax. In addition, there is a 15% discount for using UnionPay cards in some large shopping malls. Duty-free plus UnionPay card, the total is 13%, which is very favorable. In Japan, there are more than 200,000 shops that can use UnionPay cards. You can also use UnionPay cards to withdraw cash from ATMs in Japan without changing a lot of yen to travel without cash. It's convenient to hold a UnionPay card in your hand.

12. There are also black-hearted Japanese businesses called duty-free shops. The price of the same commodity is more than 50% or even twice as expensive as that of ordinary shopping malls, so we should learn to identify it.

13. Remember, smoking can only be carried out in designated places. Many shopping malls and coffee shops in Tokyo will set up smoking areas in a more humane way. However, this regional setting should be strictly observed. Smoking should not be allowed to cross the line. Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo even stipulates that you can't smoke when you walk, or you will be fined. In addition, there are few garbage cans in Japan, and there are almost no garbage cans on the roadside. Therefore, plastic bags with garbage are necessary props for traveling to Japan.

14. Shopping in shopping malls in Japan generally has samples to try, cos.

15. soak in Japanese hot springs and enjoy yourself. Hot spring hotels in Japan generally provide harmonious bathrobes, but wearing harmonious bathrobes often makes jokes. Remember, a woman's left lapel must be above and her right lapel must be below. On the other hand, the man's right lapel is above and the left lapel is below. After check-in, put on a Japanese bathrobe, soak in hot springs, and then eat in a bathrobe, which is one of the favorite enjoyment of Japanese people. So it will be more professional to put on a Japanese bathrobe in the room, put all the valuables in the room, and then go to the hot springs lightly.

16. On TV, we often see stars wrapped in big towels and soak in hot springs, shouting that it is too comfortable. Actually, it stands for shooting. You can go to Japan to soak in hot springs without a towel. First of all, of course, most non-mixed baths in Japan have separate hot spring rooms for men and women. First, sit on the bench (you can't stand to avoid splashing on others), wash your body with the shower, and then soak in the hot spring. Women should tie their hair with towels or rubber bands, not wigs. Don't let it fall into the hot spring. You can cover your body with a small towel when you walk, but you must put the small towel outside the pool after entering the hot spring.

17. Hot springs are three in and three out. Each soaking time is about 5 minutes. Japanese people like to have dinner after soaking in hot springs. The cold beer for dinner will be especially delicious at this time, but remember not to drink it before soaking in the hot spring. Rest for a few hours after dinner, go to a simple hot spring before going to bed, and get up early the next morning to watch the sunrise in Ran Ran while taking a hot spring bath. This is the best way for Japanese to enjoy hot spring hotels. Generally, you can check in at 3 pm the day before and check out at 10 the next morning.

18. Finally, most of the service personnel in hot spring hotels are women in kimonos. Most of them are well-trained, show you the way, pour you tea in the hotel room, and make a quilt for you when you go to eat. If you can learn a few simple Japanese words at this time (thank you) or;
