My trip to Japan was amazing! I felt super safe the whole time. The food was incredible, and everything was reasonably priced. My hotel was in a great spot, it was in Ginza. The food and shopping were really affordable too!"

I went there with a friend for her birthday. We were a little bit disappointed because there weren't many things to see or visit but still happy we went there. We visited a magnificent temple but the way to get there was quite an adventure 😂. The view was amazing. We visited Shizuoka's castle but a bit sad because there wasn't much to see because almost everything was burnt in a fire long time ago. The fish in shizuoka is divine and so cheap compared to France!

I was in Takamatsu for 4 days which was more than enough to see the city and some nearby nature areas. I went to and recommend: - Takamatsu Castle Park - Ogijima (lsland) - Ritsurin Garden - Kotohiragu (shrine, hike up 800 stairs) - Sanuki Manno Park - Takaya Shrine (hike) - Chichibugahama Beach (great for sunset and there's an uncle who takes photos for you for free) I recommend Kotohiragu and Sanuki Manno Park the same day because it's just a short bus ride from near the bottom of the shrine to the bottom of the park. In the bus there's a phone number to call the park and have a car pick you up (for free) to bring you to the entrance of the park (pay for entrance fee). I didn't have a Japanese phone number but the bus driver kindlly told me about this and called for me! Otherwise I would've had to walk uphill for 30+ minutes just to get to the entrance. PSA for vegans: Few to no vegan options in the area. I went out for food twice and the rest was surviving off of grocery store food. Two bakeries in the main strip in Takamatsu had plain white baguettes and another bakery had big sliced bread that were all vegan (grocery store bread all has milk). Funnily enough Starbucks has several vegan desserts in Japan so I had some of those (although definitely more pricy so it's a treat)

I definitely would say a lot of military ruin some of the experiences but overall it’s a very safe and pleasant experience.

I travelled to Osaka in April 2024 with family. It was an amazing experience. The city felt very culturally rich. The foods were amazing. The local people were very friendly. The city was very clean. In total, I really love the city.

Tokyo was a very safe city. The street was very bright and there were many people on streets even in nights. And convenience store foods are really good. You must try those. I recommend egg sandwich and tuna triangle seaweed rice.

Pretty safe compared to other countries. You can walk around alone, you won’t get robbed. People even will bring lost things to the nearest police stations, so if you lose something there’s a high chance of getting it back. Of course you hear about sexual harassment cases on public transport etc. so it does exist. I personally never saw it happening though.

It's safe normally But I don't really wanna walk alone at night Woman walking alone at midnight could be dangerous. And It's not biased, but recently I feel scared of foreign guys being so loud at night and acting bit disrespectful.
