So there are 3 main types of bows the first one is called the eshaku which is a 15 degree bow and it is done in an informal setting as a greeting the next one is called the keirei which is a 30 degree bow to show someone of a higher level, respect and then we have the saikeirei which is a 45 degree bow reserved for major occasions like meeting the emperor or used to apologize when you've screwed up something really big so if your in Japan and your walking on the streets and someone randomly hands you tissue don't be scared because this is how many many Japanese businesses advertise their business if your handing out free tissue people are more likely to take this and see what your company has got to offer rather than if you hand out flyers I think it's a pretty good idea and also you know I never run out of tissues anymore Some Japanese companies conduct a morning exercise session for their workers they believe that this makes their workers more healthier and productive for a days work Japan has some really really cool animal cafes out there you've got the dog cafe cat cafe, rabbit cafe, bird cafe, reptile cafe even owl cafe and penguin cafe that's alot of pretty cool animals to be drinking tea with So in Japan most of the streets don't have names the blocks have numbers so the streets are just empty space inbetween the blocks and the buildings on the block are numbered in order of age so the first building built there is called number one the second one is called number two and even if it is on opposite sides it doesn't matter Despite Japan for being a very very developed country most of the people there still use cash to pay for everything so for those of you who are planning to go to Japan make sure to have some cash on you because not all the shops accept card In Japan there is actually hardly any rubbish bins on the streets, yet there is no litter Japanese are very good citizens and they try to keep their country clean so they bring their rubbish home Now in Japan did you know they have a cat island, rabbit island, monkey island, monkey mountain, horse cape, deer park and fox park So in Japan schools are quite strict in their rules so up until high school you normally aren't allowed to dye your hair so what a lot of young Japanese students do is when they get into university the first thing they do is dye their hair If you guys are ever eating with Japanese people remember never never never to stick your chopsticks vertically on your rice and remember never to pass food chopstick to chopstick these are performed at a Japanese funeral so it is said to bring bad luck and you just wouldn't like to see something that's perform at a funeral done at he dining table So guys, those were my ten fun facts about Japan I hope you found it interesting and hopefully could take away something and please comment down below about what other videos you would like to see me do So I'll see you in my next video, see you guys! byeeee ! :)
