12 special things in the land of cherry blossoms
(Baonghean.vn) - Japan is not only the famous land of cherry blossoms and an ancient culture, but also a place with simple values that make people who come here not want to return.
1. Tokyo is the safest city in the world
 |
| Tokyo (Japan) is the safest and most livable city in the world. In addition, if based on basic criteria of personal security, health care or facilities, Osaka - another large city in the land of cherry blossoms also ranked third in the list. |
2.Japanese children have a national birthday
 |
| Shichi-Go-San (Seven-Five-Three) is a traditional Japanese holiday celebrated on November 15th to mark the coming of age of all children across Japan. It is a tradition for families with children in this country and usually takes place twice a year: the first time when the child turns 3, and the second time when the child turns 5 for boys and 7 for girls. |
3. The whole population exercises in the morning
 |
| Schoolchildren and employees of most companies start their day with morning exercises. This tradition has been around since 1928 and is widely supported by the public because it not only makes people feel healthier but also encourages people to move closer together, which is extremely important in a country as community-oriented as Japan. |
4. Premium Friday
 |
| Employees in Japan often suffer from fatigue and burnout from working overtime all week long. To combat this, the government has introduced a program called Premium Friday, which allows employees to leave work a few hours early on the last Friday of the month. |
5. Companies with a thousand-year history
 |
| Property rights in Japan are strictly regulated, which is why old-fashioned businesses like the Hoshi Ryokan (a traditional inn) still exist today. This business was founded in 718 and has been passed down through 46 generations. |
6.Sanctuaries for wildlife
 |
| Coming to Japan, people can visit many special tourist destinations where you will have direct contact with extremely lovely wild animals. Those are the Sika Deer in Nara Park, the lovely Rabbits on Okunoshima Island, the hot spring monkeys at Jigokudani Monkey Park or countless naughty Foxes in the "fox village" at the foot of Miyagi Zao Mountain, for example. These places make you feel close to nature and relax after stressful working days. |
7. Ability to repair roads at lightning speed
 |
| At the end of 2016, the whole world was amazed by the super-fast working ability of the Japanese people when the Fukuoka city government took just over 2 days to complete the repair of a large sinkhole nearly 14m deep. |
8. The most caring maintenance workers in the world
 |
| In Japan, investors always pay attention to even the smallest details to satisfy customers and local residents. They are willing to design a faucet right on the balcony so that home buyers can easily water the plants, or "innovate" manhole covers with eye-catching colors to help the streets become more lively and less monotonous. |
9. Minimum Space - Maximum Comfort
 |
| Japanese people often live in small apartments but their houses are fully equipped with the most modern amenities, especially their balcony even has a sink used for watering plants. |
10. The world's best Shinkansen high-speed rail system
 |
| Although located in an area that is frequently hit by earthquakes and typhoons, since 1964, the Japanese have started using the Shinkansen high-speed rail system connecting major cities on the two main islands to help people travel more conveniently. Since then, the Shinkansen high-speed rail system has always been among the fastest, most modern, punctual and best-quality rail systems in the world. |
11. Early warning system to all people
 |
| In 2007, the Japanese government launched the J-Alert early warning system to notify all citizens of natural disasters, catastrophes, terrorism or war... in the earliest possible time. J-Alert includes a system that operates based on modern satellite technology to help the Japanese government quickly send signals to radio and television stations, emergency loudspeakers placed throughout residential areas as well as send direct messages to all mobile devices in the affected area. |
12. Diverse consumer goods
 |
