Japan

Japan is a small country located in east Asia.

The population is around 130,000,000 (one hundred and thirty million) people. The total world population is 6,800,000,000 (six point eight billion), which means that roughly 2 in every 100 people are Japanese.

Japan's land area measures 378,000 (three hundred and seventy-eight thousand) square kilometers.

If the earth's land area is 149,000,000 (one hundred and forty-nine million) square kilometers then Japan is no bigger than this red dot

Japan is the most advanced country in Asia. It is second only to America in GDP and it's proud of its high standard of living and economic wealth.

Life expectancy of Japanese men is 79 years and 86 years for women, which is the longest in the world.

And there are culture practices such as KABUKI, BONSAI, SUMO, SADOU, KIMONO and ORIGAMI, all of which have developed into distinctly Japanese traditions.

Japan is a country with its own original culture and

history. Do you want to know more details about it? Now let ’s welcome ...

1. Character.

Japanese people tend to be short, have black hair, small mouth and small eyes. This is a typical Japanese salaryman

And Kimono is Japanese traditional clothes. It ’s very beautiful right?

Japanese people are, generally, pretty shy. You could say that they find it particularly difficult to express how they really feel. They also need to be careful of the relationships between their boss and co-workers.

So don't forget to bow on your way home, again, and again, and again. They pay a lot attention to the word ----”Polite ”

2.Food

From traditional Japanese style food, to Chinese, Italian, French and American style junk food, Japan is a nation of food lovers.

When you think of Japanese food, I guess the first word comes into your mind must be--- SUSHI. You can choose

from shrimp, salmon roe, egg and any number or types of SUSHI. Recently, you can even order pudding or Korean BBQs. By the way, the king of SUSHI in Japan is TUNA. That almost 2 million tons of it fished worldwide every year, Japanese people eat 710,000 (seven hundred and ten thousand) tons. That's a third of the world's total.

And there is also the Raw Fish , The delicious Miso Soup

A famous place must own a lot of great sightseeings. Now Let ’s welcome... to show us some interesting places of Japan.

3.SIGHTSEEING

Tokyo,Japan's capital city, makes up an extremely small area

but it's the heart of Japanese politics, economy, distribution and fashion.

Tokyo is the Mekka, the place everyone wants to live. And so in recent years, it's become overpopulated to the extreme. An example, compare to an American, who can claim a living space of 180 square kilometers to himself, there are 11Japanese people cramming to the same space,

but in Tokyo alone, there are 192 people squished into the same extremely crammed living conditions. It ’s a very crowded city, isn’t it?

When talking about famous mountains, you must know The Himalayas, The Alps. But have you heard of Mount Fuji?You can see it on the screen .

Besides, the winter in Hokkaido is also wonderful . The snow, the cherry blossom must 让你流连忘返

Japan is a technologically advanced nation .Yes, we can also call it “ high-tech products industry.” As you can see on the screen, the robots that walk like humans , which can make noodles acting as a machine .And a variety of world-famous digital products.: cameras, cellphones, computers and so on. I guess many of us must own some of it. Do you know these brands, sony..........

So, this is Japan. When you look at it from a global perspective, do you see what I mean when I say Japan is a strange country? Does Japan seem a bit different from what you first imagined? After all, Japan projects an image

of wealth and prosperity. There's probably a lot you can't see behind that image. But take a step back and you can see the bigger, strangier picture. And who created this strange country? You did.
