Japanese culture is usually very interesting for those who grow up in Western culture. They are innovative, practical and… a bit eccentric, it must be said. Prepare for the encounter with a totally different culture and try to prove everything. And yet we are not referring simply to Japanese cuisine, but also to different accommodation options.
The capsule hotels they are definitely an extravagant proposition for tourists. In them, the beds are located inside capsules made of plastic or fiberglass that barely have the necessary space for the bed and little else. They have a TV and Wi-Fi connection, and guests can use the toilets outside the capsule. Let’s see what the best options are available.
