There are a lot of countries that are famous all over the world for some peculiarities. Japan is, probably one of the most exotic ones. The country is well known for its inventions. Some of them are weird, others are crazy, while still others are somewhere in between. Just remember the selfie stick that so many laughed at only a couple of years ago!

SUMMARY - If you don’t like sitting with your back in the direction of travel, you can just turn your seat to whichever side you want. - Japanese motorcycle helmet manufacturers care about ladies. - All parents dream of such a thing: it’s a special place where you can seat your child while you’re doing your business. - If you feel awkward sitting alone in a cafe, this is an option for you: when you come without any company, the staff will place a soft toy in front of you. - In Tokyo, they even have corresponding zebra crossings. Actually, in most cases, we still use diagonal crossing even without a zebra. - Your hands will always be free — perfect for watching movies. We wonder if there is an idea of plate and spoons holders. - Sunglasses for dogs. This invention seems strange at first, but then you realize dogs may not like bright sunlight, just like us. - If you don’t want to bother others with your singing or are just too shy to sing out loud, this mic will help you out: it muffles your voice so only you can hear it. - The Japanese consider their bathroom the dirtiest place in their house, even if it’s clean. They can’t enter it in the same footwear they walk around the rest of the house in. - When you work at your laptop lying on your stomach, your hands get tired very quickly. That’s why there’s now this holder. - Finding a house in Japan by its address is a real test. Most streets here don’t have names, and house numbers are based on the date of their being built. That’s why you can often see a plaque with the house owner’s name. - A dream for those who care about water saving and ecology. The supply tank gathers water from the sink when it’s used to wash hands, making you utilize it twice. - Japan is a country of robots and automated machines that replace people everywhere they can. For instance, this shop has no assistants — only machines.
