Had to repost this because my account got banned (hence unhappy now) :(
Anyway some of my fond memories in Japan in a dump so hope you don't mind

View of Kyoto

A pretty balcony

Koninchiwa!

This is green tea parfait!

Winter colors

Matching petals

Yes i know, but wearing socks with slippers is part of their traditional garb

Sparkling clean streets

Quaint and cute little house

This is a ryokan (traditional japanese inn). This is in Hakone on a hill called Ryozanpaku - apparently some comic was based on this place

Entrance to the Ryozankau inn

If there is one difficult thing to do in japan, it is finding bad food! All food here tastes awesome!

And the presentation is always top class

Another look of satisfaction when a girl is no longer hangry ^_^

Japanese "walnut" grapes

Their grapes are to die for, and so are their strawberries. When you eat those japanese sweets with these fruit flavors, you may think they taste fake but actually they are copying the real taste of their own fruits!

Mount Fuji, Japan [4032x3024]

Gorgeous Mt Fuji

The scenery is achingly beautiful and ethereal

Very japanese style

The colors are postcard friendly for sure

Ok i happen to be the only one here wearing a kimono

Bushes are well manicured here in japan!

Beautiful manicured bushes

This is in Hakone, on top of a volcano

Natural spa - an onsen

Inside of a ryokan

Osaka!

Got a great lot!

What a wonderful world

Streets of kyoto

Furry Friends in osaka ^_^

Sorry for the dump, i hope it provided some info for you and also hopefully you'll get to visit Japan soon! Arigato gozaimasu ^_^

I'm trying to save up for a trip to Japan. After seeing your post, it's just made me want to go more lol

東京 - Tokyo; 京都 - Kyoto. So no, it's not an anagram.

Kyoto is the ancient capital of Japan. Tokyo means Eastern capital and Kyoto was ones called saikyo aka Western capital for a while.

Are you Japanese? And did you go for your 20th birthday? Or did you just visit and want to wear a kimono?

You can tell that she's more on the Chinese side. One thing rather amazing is how her wearing a kimono can make her pass as Japanese, though

9 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 3

She's not, you can tell by looking at her face.

Having lived in China for near a decade and Japan for over a year, no one has ever demonstrated the ability to tell them apart reliably.

There are traits more common among different populations but there is no 100% accurate method. For example, I can pass as Japanese, Chinese

I wouldn't say 'extremely'. Sure, every pic has her in it, but that's just some peoples' style. They see photos without people as pointless

My mum does that, and her reasoning is that it's proof that you were actually there. So.

A good point I heard is that if you are just gonna take a picture of the place them just google a pic taken by a pro.

9 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 1

Yeah, but pros are usually extremely selective. Taking pics as a noob allows you more freedom; to capture the less 'palatable' views.

How are they mature when it is socially acceptable for women to wear bikinis on any public beach in the western world (to my knowledge)?

9 years ago | Likes 17 Dislikes 3

Obviously, the answer is that Imgur has been bought by non-westerners.

Which non-westerners? I'm pretty sure a lot of other countries are fine with bikinis. there are a few exceptions of course.
