Honest review after 6 days — mostly great, a few gripes

Visited Japan for 6 days. The positives are real: Mt. Fuji is every bit as impressive as advertised, and the food scene around Tokyo is genuinely excellent — try ramen if you haven't. seamless public transport was an unexpected bonus.

That said, cash-heavy society. It's not a dealbreaker but worth knowing before you go. I'd still recommend Japan to most travellers — just manage your expectations on those specific points and you'll have a great time.
