Things Okay in Japan but Illegal Around the World

Shocking Laws okay in Japan, but illegal around the world. So I’ve made videos before on things you can’t do in Japan because of laws or unknown laws that could get you arrested, but in this video I wanted to switch things up a little and share with you some things that are legal in Japan but may be illegal in other parts of the world. Many think that Japan is a very strict country, but when you hear some of these Japanese laws you may be scratching your head. And to be clear from the start, I don’t recommend doing any of these things. I’m not providing legal advice and this is for entertainment only.

Unspoken RULES of Japan - What I wish I Knew Before Coming
You DON'T Need to worry about Traveling to Japan, but you DO Need to know some these simple unspoken RULES when you come to Japan, Japanese culture is based on avoiding a scene and confrontations so they usually WON'T tell you if you're doing something unacceptable on your Japan Trip. I have lived in Japan for many years, and these are what I wish someone would have told me before I moved here, some might be obvious but others will surprise you and help guide you so you can enjoy Japan and it's amazing culture! (Also be sure to tell me your own travel tips in the comments!)

3 Things NOT to do in Japan
I've learnt how to scarf down food on the fly in Japan in one spot faster than Popeye eating a can of spinach. #japan #traveltips #japantravel
12 Things NOT To Do in Japan! #shorts
FULL VIDEO HERE:
Are you planning a trip to Japan? The Japanese are relatively reserved and you probably won’t even realize that you’re offending them unless you follow this quick guide of things NOT to do in Japan.
1. Don’t Wear Shoes in the House
They simply don’t want the dirt from the outside being trekked all over their clean floors and tatami mats.
2. Don’t Forget the Toilet Slippers
The Japanese have a dedicated set of slippers for toilet usage. Every foreigner forgets to remove these at some point.
3. Don’t Expect Western Toilets
If you’re lucky, you may encounter one these Super Toilets. However, many places in Japan still have this. A hole in the ground.
4. Don’t Bathe Dirty
These deep “ofuro” tubs are NOT for cleaning! Get in AFTER you’ve already showered as several people may take a turn in the same hot water.
5. Don't Show Your Tattoos
Tatoos are associated with Yakuza gangsters, so you'll often see no tattoo signs at pools, hotsprings, gyms and resorts.
6. Don’t Misuse Chopsticks
Here are a few chopstick etiquette rules:
Don’t wave them, drum, sword-fight, point at people, poke food, stand upright, pass food, stab food, pull dishes, lick, cross them or lay them like bridge.
7. Don’t Be Afraid to Slurp and Burp
Japanese will sip, slurp, and even audibly burp throughout the meal as a polite sign that they are enjoying it!
8. Don’t Pour Your Own Drink
The custom is to keep each OTHERS’ glasses full. It's challenging to keep tabs on how much you’re imbibing when someone else is constantly refilling your glass! Kanpai!
9. Stop Spreading the Germs
If you’re sick in public wear a surgical mask!
10. Don’t Point to Your Chest for “Me”
In Japan the gesture is to point to one’s nose!
11. Avoid the Number Four
Four is a very superstitious number in Japan, akin to unlucky 13. It is pronounced ‘shi’ in Japanese, which has the same sound as their word for death.
12. Don’t Assume Yes means Yes
Although hi translates to “yes”, it's more of a “uhuh, I hear you” kind of utterance. Don’t assume they’ve agreed with what your are saying. Also the Japanese rarely use a precise “no”. They prefer a subtle maybe. or “we’ll try our best”. 'No' is considered too direct and confrontational. Yes and no questions can get very confusing.
Now you know what NOT to do, enjoy your stay in this fascinating country.

12 things that make Japan unique I Experience of an Indian Traveller
Japan is a land of unique experiences and during my two weeks I discovered many things and fell in love. So here I am sharing 12 things that make Japan unique as per my experience.
I have been to a couple of countries and never found so many unique things in any other country. Whether we talk about its topography, its culture, food or comfort. Everything in Japan feels like its specially hand - picked. In Japan, everything is well organised.
People in Japan truly understand the fragility of life and they never forget to enjoy the little moments. Specially during the cherry blossom season people have hanami parties under the cherry trees to just soak in the beauty and have a great time with friends, family and colleagues.
And just like this there are so many concepts of Japan people that teach towards the higher quotient of happiness. They have such unique ways of doing things which is totally different from the rest of the world. Seriously, there is so much more to discover in Japan and I just can't wait to travel and experience it.
Have you travelled to Japan? if yes, do share any of your unique experience. And if not, would you want to travel to Japan ?
