RYOKAN
A ryokan is a traditional japanesse hotel. You can find it everywhere in Japan. Some of them have a wood, glass and bambu structures, paper doors and tatami floors while others have more modern style. There are 80.000 ryokans in Japan and most of them are for japanesse turists eventhough they accept foreing turists.
It´s an atonishng thing that the toilets are shared, and both beds and chairs have no legs, so you have to sleep and eat on the floor.
I was very lucky to enjoy this kind of hotel, there i could feel the japanesse culture.

I thougth the ryokan don´t exist in nowadays,is a part of the japanesse culture.
In europe if you share a room or toilet...you sleep or stay in a worst hotel of the world!!! And don´t speak about to sleeping on the floor.
The bigs cities of japan born a new hotels.The capsules.
In those hotels,you can sleep with a bargain price,the rooms are small and the toilet are share.
