Would it be safe to visit Japan in July?

Question:


I was supposed to go to Japan for spring vacation but couldn't because of the whole earthquake, tsunami, and radiation thing. We are planning to go in July instead but I want to make sure it's safe.
Please give reasons why it is safe or why is isn't safe. thankyou :)

Answer:


Japan was hit hard by the disaster, but only 0.1 per cent of Japan was affected by the tsunami and the area that was affected is not a popular destination for tourists to Japan. Most tourists to Japan either visit the ski resorts in the north island of Hokkaido, which was not affected, or follow the “Golden Route” from Tokyo along the southeast coast to Hiroshima. The route include Hakone, Nagoya, and the traditional cities of Kyoto, Osaka, Nara and Okayama. Most tourist attractions in Japan are now open, although some may have shortened opening hours to conserve power. All international airports are operating and this even includes Sendai Airport, which was damaged by the tsunami, and the bullet trains are all running as normal.

The smart people who have done their research realize that Japan is pretty safe to visit.
