It is undeniable that when the global travel restriction was lifted, many Filipinos look forward to going to the Land of the Rising Sun, not just to enjoy the winter but more so to explore the seemingly unlimited beautiful destinations across Japan.

Of course, for Filipino tourists, the travel to Japan will not be complete without the food trip adventure one can take advantage of, from ramen, sushi, sashimi, yakiniku, tonkatsu, soba and the famous beers Kirin, Sapporo and Asahi, among others.

And as to why many Filipinos fall in love with Japan is obviously because of the Japanese unparalleled friendliness, courtesy and sincerity.

For as long as a Japanese finds a lost item, one can be assured to get it back.
