About Japan

The Japanese is the term the locals are referred to by most of the world and can be called from elsewhere in the world on +81. Strangely Japan has no official national language, as there are a number of Japanese dialects.

In Japan itself, you will hear people refer to it as Nippon, or Nihon, instead of Japan. Depends what you going to Japan for, but say for skiing, then can head to Rusutsu, Moiwa or Kiroro, to name just three.

Many, many, many beaches to go and lie on and swim off, but these are just some of the best ones, and apologies to those not mentioned.

Research:- Shirahama, Yaeyama, Shikoku (good for surfing) or Emerald Beach (only beach in Japan in a lagoon). But whatever island in Japan you are on, you will probably find beautiful white sand beaches.

If peaks are your thing, then Mount Fuji is the one everyone knows. Lakes and rivers and waterfalls abound here, so you never too far away from one. The biggest is Lake Biwa.

Due to the mountainous nature of most of Japan, there is a well known local quote of, this not being a river, but more of a waterfall. The longest river is the Shinano. Technology and cars are two of the main industries. The Samurai are a large part of Japanese history.

It is on the Pacific Rim of Fire, so lots of tectonic plate activity. Japan consists of nearly seven thousand islands and nearly three quarters of the land is not usable for anything, as too many trees or too mountainous. Tokyo is the capital.

Osaka is week known for the earthquake that was part of the reason that brought down Barings Bank in London. Football and baseball draw the big crowds.

The traditional sport of Sumo continues to be popular, although there are signs of some loss of interest in Japanese boys taking up the sport. No official figures, but Buddhism and Shinto are the main two, with some following both. However, it is thought that most people have no particular faith.

Getting close to one hundred and thirty million people live on these islands. Tokyo is one of the main attractions for tourists. A ride on the Bullet Train is a must and head for Mount Fuji.

The locals yearn for the Yen that has a currency code of JPY.
