Japan safety
Is Japan safe?
This question was hardly ever asked before March 11th 2011.
Japan has a wonderful reputation as being a very safe country.
March 11th 2011 was not a good day for Japan. As everyone surely knows, a strong earthquake and subsequent tsunami wreaked havoc on the north east coast of the main Honshu island and there was a lot of unease about the safety of visiting Japan for quite a while. It certainly affected the number of people visiting Japan in the 2011/2012 season.
Please read the report that we first published in June 2011, including comments from people living in the snow areas of Japan.
