🇯🇵 To all our international friends planning a visit to Japan,
Shrines are not theme parks.
Temples are not photo studios.
And Japanese streets are not trash cans.
Japan warmly welcomes visitors from all over the world.
However, we truly hope that this welcome is met with genuine respect.
That’s why I’ve created a “Japan Manners Guide” especially for our overseas guests.
Please follow these guidelines to help protect the culture, history, nature, and local communities that have been cherished and passed down through generations.
If you cannot respect these rules, it would be better for everyone if you didn’t come. 🇯🇵
This way, both sides can have a positive experience.
