Essential Japan Updates | TOP 7 New Things to Know Before Traveling to Japan 2025

Japan in 2024 is full of activity, with record-breaking tourism and unique cultural highlights. Visitors are praising its culture, driven by a weak yen and viral travel spots, while choosing the right IC card, such as Welcome Suica, Suica, or Mobile Suica, makes trips smoother. However, challenges exist. Vandalism at Meiji Shrine, deer accidents in Nara Park, and illegal taxi services during major events have raised concerns. New Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba has also sparked debate over his actions at the APEC summit. As Japan grows in global popularity, it faces both opportunities and challenges, showcasing its charm and complexity. Let’s explore what makes Japan so captivating today!

  1. its crazy how jouzu you have become at english !! lets gooo Meg ! thanks as always for these informative videos !

  2. The most surprising update was about the new Prime Minister. He didn't show the true culture of Japanese people in general 😢.

  3. i think you forgot to mention a CON for the Suica mobile app that does not work on our android phones from our country…we must have iPhones for it to work…Cheers from Canada

  4. If you lose the welcome suica card you cannot get any balance back even if you have the information of the card number.
