Streets of Japan
Walking the streets of urban Japan, some things strike you immediately. First and foremost, it is busy! People are everywhere, many in a hurry while walking to the office or buying a quick lunch. There is a constant flow of people and traffic, not just on the main roads. Despite this, there is no mess, and there are hardly any jams. Of course, Japan is known to be very organized, but still, it is surprising to see it by yourself. So, for example, at the metro stations or at the bus stops, people are lining up calmly well before the train or bus arrives. Also, the streets are incredibly clean, and you hardly see any garbage. And this again despite the masses of people and maybe even more surprisingly without there being any public bins.
