About Japan

What's not to love about Japan? This island country packs in rich culture, mouthwatering cuisine, advanced tech, and jaw-dropping scenery. The society leans formal and conservative overall, but Japan also stands out as a leader in LGBTQ+ rights in Asia, legalizing same-sex relations way back in 1882.

Today pride celebrations bring the rainbow vibrancy to big Japanese cities, especially Tokyo with its LGBTQ haven, Shinjuku district. Queer travellers will enjoy the safety, respect, politeness and warmth extended by the Japanese people. And they’ll quickly be won over by immersing themselves in the harmony of the Japanese culture, not to mention killer anime or the perfect bowl of ramen!
