You know, it's these little things that make Japan different.
Here are 11 examples of these differences;
1. Drinks for the blind
Blind people can now know what's inside a can by reading the braille written on the top.
2. Conserve natural resources
A common type of toilet in Japan is one where you can wash your hands with water from the toilet tank, and reuse it for the next flush.
3. Street Arts
The manhole covers in Japan are beautiful.
4. Consideration for others
If you lose a bag in the street, chances are someone will put it somewhere easy to find and untouched. And nobody will take it.
5. Fish location
Fish (Koi) sometimes live in pipes in Japan.
6. Toilet courtesy
With modern toilets, you can mask the sounds of peeing and pooping with the sounds of running water.
7. Umbrellas
Umbrella lockers, so you can leave your umbrella at the entrance of the building, without anyone accidentally taking it (no one would steal it anyway).
8. Emergency Procedures
Elevator seats that can be used as toilets in case of emergency.
9. Restaurant Menus
Fake plastic items in front of restaurants that look like real food.
10. Bathroom label
Separate slippers for going to the toilet.
11. Retail sale of eggs
Eggs sold in vending machines are common in the countryside.
Here is a list of things that make Japan a little different.
