MOSCOW, 16 APR — RIA Novosti. The experts gave advice to Russian tourists who after the opening of the borders will want to visit Japan, according to the Office for tourism in Japan.
many tourist spots in this country there is a payment terminal, as Japan still is a country of paper money. “Always carry cash, the benefit to remove them from the card now at all post offices and convenience stores “7-Eleven”— said the press service of the Office.
the Experts added that the ballot boxes and garbage cans on the streets are almost no. If you plan, for example, eat street food, you need to be willing to carry your garbage with you to the hotel.

In order not to provoke unnecessary conflicts, people began to walk on the left side of the road, — explained in the Office of tourism. — As well as in Osaka there were mostly merchants, not samurai, that they wore no swords, and the Luggage in his right hand. And it was easier to go right.”

In Japan, almost zero crime and no theft. If you forgot something in transport, it is likely that it will find and return. It is only necessary to contact the nearest police station or to staff at the station.
because in this country the law prohibits non-professionals to provide paid transport services, Uber and similar services work only in some major cities and are no different from regular taxis. Experts clarify that they are pretty expensive and I advise you to give preference to public transport. To use a taxi makes sense only if you have Luggage or at night, when they stopped the trains and buses. The green light on the glass so that the machine is busy, red – free.
