Japan is an unusual mixture of traditional and ultra-modem(超现代). This can be confusing for the visitor because, although it looks quite Western, Japan is still in many ways very oriental (东方的). Whenever you go into a house you must take off your shoes. Sometimes your host will provide you with slippers; if not, you walk round in your socks. A visitor should also expect in more traditional houses, hotels and restaurants to eat kneeling down on the floor on a cushion (垫子) in front of a low table. It is a good idea to get used to eating with chopsticks but, if you can't manage, ask for a knife and fork. The Japanese are extremely polite and friendly: you can nearly always find someone who speaks English. In summer the country is very hot and humid so anyone planning a trip then ought to take light, comfortable clothes with them.
The majority of tourists head for Tokyo but you ought not to miss the chance of visiting the old capital cities of Kyoto and Nara. From Tokyo you can get to Kyoto in 3 hours on the 'Shinkansen' super-express (超级快车). If you are driving, it is important to remember that in Japan you have to drive on the left-hand side of the road.
