Your Tips On...Japan

Timely advice

Seasonal sights

“Timing a visit for the cherry blossom in spring can be hit and miss. It’s very weather-dependent and lasts only a few days. Fans of Japanese gardens will appreciate the autumn leaf colors just as much. It’s a less short-lived event, so you’ll be less likely to miss it.” David Kingsnorth

Island life

Odaiba

“When in Tokyo, spare an afternoon to visit the island of Odaiba. See the Gundam statue [right], shop till you drop, eat traditional food and relax in the gardens. Oh, and don’t forget to see the robotic receptionist. Well, it is Japan!” Mark Blyth

Saving face

Dining etiquette

“When eating out, most restaurants give you a small, damp cloth before your meal. It’s to clean your hands before the meal – not, as I found out, to clean your face with. If you use it for your face, some people find it funny, some find it weird and most will not tell you about your faux pas until you’ve done it innumerable times.” Oliver Futter
