Japanese culture is absolutely incomparable to any in our Western world. Their deeply rooted politeness, precision, and dedication to work are rarely seen anywhere else. And though you might know Japan as a home to anime, sumo wrestlers, cherry blossoms and bullet trains, their ingenuity shows in many other aspects of their daily lives. Starting with extremely innovative toilets and vending machines filled with fresh farm eggs, to the unique system of Tokyo subway and drainage canals swarming with Koi fish. These are just a particle of the interesting facts about Japanese culture. Actually, there are so many that this one post couldn't fit them all.

Bored Panda has compiled some of the weirdest inventions, cultural practices and amazing facts about Japan that will make this country your go-to destination.

I have double thoughts about it. Part of me, thinks this is awsome and effective, but the othe other part thinks that, if you don't make regular people uncomfortable too, you make less impact and the people might not want to support your cause because for them, the protest is only beneficial. If everyone's uncomfortable, everyone will be like "Oh, give them what they want, so this can f***ing end!" But then, again, not everyone is the same, and my appreciation for this kind of striking is prevailing. So, I praise these drivers.

Everyone obsessing about the "king understanding" part of this note. It's just a typo. When you learn not only a different language but also another alphabet and master it like they do, you can mock it.

I work in a hotel that welcomes a lot of Japanese guests, the point behind this letter is that the guest will actually make a big complaint if there was no notification. In fact Japanese guests are very difficult and have high expectations. Small matters that could easily be resolved at the time are not mentioned directly to the hotel. An example might be Housekeeping setting up 1 toothbrush instead of 2, rather than ask for an extra toothbrush they will wait til they get home and launch an official complaint through their travel agent.

its mostly to stop you from making any transactions or some stuff like that. ita a well reputed hotel and no business man would want money transaction fail or any other bad stuff happen like broke video conference or something. so its better to know in advance so u plan accordingly and fact they did send notice is soooo cool and very important everyone should do it

Kind understanding. It would help if people tried hard to understand and respect (and appreciate) what was in the message, instead of seeking out simple typos - and usually none of these moaners can write anything in Japanese!
