Can you drink water directly from Japanese taps? (Schematic diagram/photoAC)
Japan is the first choice for many Taiwanese people to go abroad. Hotels may not necessarily provide mineral water. Everyone must have heard that the water from Japanese taps can be drunk directly. In this regard, a Japanese hotel female employee gave the answer.
According to “Sanli News Network”, Japan’s sanitary environment has always given people a good impression, and the saying that water from Japanese taps can be drunk directly has been circulated for a long time. A female employee surnamed N at an Osaka chain hotel said that the water can be drunk raw, but it is not recommended because although the hotel will clean it, everyone’s physical condition is different, and the hotel cannot fully control how to use utensils during the stay.
It is reported that 47 prefectures in Japan will mark “you can drink it directly” and “it is recommended not to drink it directly”. Ms. N said that drinking bottled water is the safest option. You don’t have to buy water from supermarkets or vending machines. If you want to save money, you can find a “business supermarket” near the hotel. 2 liters of water includes consumption tax for 110 yen (regarding NT$23). . As for whether Japanese people really drink raw water? Miss N said, “Yes, but relatively few.” Japanese people also like to drink drinks and tea, and some people don’t drink water all day long.
Previously, some PTT netizens also posted a message asking, do you dare to drink Japanese tap water? Many people commented, “I don’t dare, and neither do my friends”, “The only solution is to buy water from supermarkets”, “Japanese drinks are cheaper”, “I drink water from the hotel bathroom sink every time I go”, “I don’t Dare, but my cousin drinks it directly following taking a shower.” “The Japanese themselves don’t dare to drink it, but they say it’s OK to drink.” “The disinfectant water in Tokyo has a strong smell.” “Taiwan’s water is also drinkable, but you Can you drink?”
