Japan is a concentration of modern and ancient wonders that create memorable landscapes and urban scenarios.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve never been, know that things to see and do are endless, from majestic skyscrapers to age-old temples, from the skyline of the capital<\/strong> to the natural parks that line the mountains.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span>The country of the Rising Sun, in addition to this, has the peculiarity of following a series of rules of common sense<\/strong>, to avoid attracting bad luck.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n


\n<\/span>In this article we list some:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. NEVER READ THESE NUMBERS TOGETHER! –<\/strong> In Italy, 17 is considered the bearer of bad luck, while in Japan it is 4 and 9<\/strong> to carry it. This is because reading them together, respectively shi<\/em> <\/strong>and ku<\/strong><\/em>, in Japanese means painful death.\u00a0 \"\"\"\"<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  2. HINAMATSURI, THE FESTIVAL OF DOLLS. –<\/strong> Dedicated to girls, is celebrated every year on March 3<\/strong> and passed this day is mandatory to remove all the dolls inherent in the festivities because you run the risk that the youngest of the house will not marry.\"\"<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  3. IF YOU SEE HIM IN THE MORNING, SMILE! –<\/strong> We are accustomed that the spider brings gain, but not in Japan. If you see him in the evening it is bad luck, but if you notice him in the morning it is forbidden to kill him<\/strong>, because it brings good news!\"\"<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. THE NAP COULD BECOME A LITTLE AGRICULTURAL! –<\/strong> According to popular belief, if you fall asleep immediately after eating you run the risk of turning into a cow!\"\"<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  5. ATTENTION TO HOW YOU USE CHOPSTICKS –<\/strong> They should never be put directly into rice<\/strong> because this practice is used only during funerals to remember the deceased. This misfortune increases dramatically if these break during the meal.<\/strong> Before eating, make sure to use the chopsticks in the correct way!\"\"<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. A GOOD TEA FLOATS! –<\/strong> It is an extremely rare event, when pouring the tea into the cup remains a piece of leaf that floats vertically<\/strong> it is said to bring a lot of luck.\"\"<\/span><\/li>\n
  7. CHECK THE GETA! – The geta (\u4e0b \u99c4)<\/strong> are traditional Japanese sandals halfway between the hooves and flip-flops. If by chance, inadvertently, you break the strap<\/strong> of Japanese sandals is an omen of imminent bad luck!<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
