Did you know that you can view webcams of practically any city in in the world? That’s right, you can even view a city in Japan as a live shot. It’s so amazing. Webcams are placed randomly (mostly for traffic reasons) around major Japanese cities and airports. It’s so fun to watch scenery from Japan right in the comfort of your own home regardless of where you are. It makes you feel like you’re right there! Though there are multiple live webcam sites of Japan, the one I found that was the best was by webhopper.com (see access link below). This site allows you to choose various cities throughout Japan.  Choose any city and escape for awhile. Or maybe right before you go to Japan, you can see what the weather is like currently with your own eyes. How fun would it be if you knew someone in Japan and you communicated with them to be in front of a certain webcam in a certain city at a certain time! Instant viewing…so genius. Take a look at your favorite city!  CLICK HERE for LIVE Japan Webcam Access
