Elements from Japanese culture are in our lives right now: many people watch anime and Japanese TV series, they eat wok and sushi, and they listen to songs by Japanese singers. And even such a seemingly ordinary thing as karaoke actually originated in Japan. However, there are still some things that can only be seen in the Land of the Rising Sun.

Really, Japan is a unique country, different from the rest of the world. Wanna have Pringles soup when in Japan? Here you go. In the mood for dinner with a huge plush Moomin in a Japanese cafe? Not a problem at all. Here are some cultural things can’t be seen anywhere but in Japan.

SUMMARY:
Most people know that a sure sign they CAN cross the road is the little, litup green man, right? Well, not in Japan! There, you should wait for a green rabbit called Miffy.
In Japan, they grow square watermelons. Nope, it's not a slip of the tongue. In Kagawa prefecture, they produce a couple hundred square watermelons a year.
When you buy Pringles in Japan, you don't get a tube of potato chips; you get noodles!
In Japan, if you come to a cafe alone, you get a massive plush Moomin as your lunch companion so that you don't feel sad!
A Holiday meal means tons of tasty food and, of course, a big roast turkey! But if you ever celebrate the Holidays while in Japan, don't get surprised to be treated with KFC instead of more traditional food.
In the Ginza district of Tokyo, there’s an unusual stationery store which rises 12 floors!
There are more than 50 million vending machines in Japan, and that means they’re literally everywhere!
If you're in Japan and wondering what souvenirs you can get for your family and friends, try Japanlimited KitKats!
Suffering from the cold in the winter? Just get yourself one of these oneuse pocketheaters that are so popular in Japan! It's called kairo, and nowadays, you just need to open it for the chemical reaction to begin.
Do you love unusual forms of art? Then how about rice paddy art? People plant rice of different colors and types to create breathtaking images in paddy fields.
Imagine returning home after a long and crazy day at work. The Japanese have found a solution for this problem and that's a subway chin rest!
