From the smallest inventions and initiatives, Japanese people always put their heart into it and prove to everyone that as long as it is what you want, nothing is impossible.

Japan is a wonderful country with beautiful natural scenery and a unique culture. Not only that, Japanese people are very creative. They can create things that you cannot find anywhere else in the world except Japan.

Brightside has selected unique initiatives in Japan that should be replicated in many countries around the world.

In Japan, the gas pumps are not placed on the ground but suspended from the ceiling of the gas station. It may seem funny but it actually makes sense because drivers can pump their own gas just by sitting at their seats.

2. Special vending machines

With a population of 127 million, how to save space as much as possible is always a priority in Japan. Special double-decker parking areas like this one were probably created to meet that demand.

The Japanese care about even the smallest things about their fellow countrymen. They understand that even the visually impaired want to know what drink they are holding in their hands.

That's why in Japan, you won't find any soft drink cans that don't have embossed letters printed on the lid.

5. Chair with hanging bag

One of the most annoying things about going out on a date is having to hold onto your bag so it doesn’t fall off the back of your chair. That’s why chairs with a hole in the backrest for hanging bags were invented.

Everyone knows how crazy Japanese people are about work. That also means work pressure is inevitable. So what is the best way to reduce stress?
