Is it safe for a woman to travel to japan alone?

Question:

Will be in Fukuoka.

Answer:

Fukuoka is a very nice city and like a lot of Japan very safe.Use common sense and you will be ok.I have met many young people travelling in Japan and very few have had any problems , those that did simply were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Where are you staying ? These hostels are cheap and friendly, the first is my personal pick. Guest House Aloha Spirit,Tabicolle Backpackers, International Hostel Khaosan and Hakata Riverside Hostel.All very central, well priced and favorites amongst male and female backpackers.Check them on the web and look up reviews.
