Welcome to Voice Japan — one of the few places on the site where we use written text.
That’s because we’d like to take a moment to explain what this project is all about.
Voice Japan is a voice-first encyclopedia — designed to help travelers understand Japan quickly, clearly, and with curiosity.
Each page features a single photo and a short English voice explanation. You don’t need to read — just tap the PLAY / STOP button and listen.
You’ll find the voice bar near the top of every page — ready when you are. It’s there to help you explore Japan hands-free, interruption-free, and at your own pace.
All voice content is narrated by VoyJay — your friendly and knowledgeable guide throughout your journey. He’s your voice companion — here to help you prepare, explore, and enjoy Japan more deeply.
We focus on what matters most to travelers: Japanese food, transportation, cultural customs, and everyday things you’re likely to encounter — but might not fully understand.
The voice explanations are short, clear, and beginner-friendly — even if you know very little about Japan.
Some pages also offer an extended voice story with deeper background and cultural context.
Our goal is to make Japanese culture feel more accessible — without oversimplifying. Everything is explained with care, and always with respect.
In addition to the voice explanations, many pages include helpful links — to trustworthy English-language sites for train passes, airport access, regional travel tips, or cultural guides.
These links are selected to support your journey — not ours.
Voice Japan is ad-free and non-commercial. While some external sites may display ads, our selections are based only on usefulness.
This combination of voice + links makes Voice Japan flexible — perfect for quick learning on the go, or deeper discovery when you have more time.
Just tap a category — or search for a keyword like ramen, money, or onsen.
Each page offers a short voice explanation — usually under one minute. You can listen while walking, waiting for a train, or relaxing after a meal.
Some sections are still growing — but new voices and helpful content are added weekly.
Voice Japan is made for travelers — but it’s also useful for students, teachers, restaurants, and cultural groups.
Feel free to link to any page — whether it’s about food, transportation, customs, or emergency tips. We’d love to see Voice Japan shared on your site, blog, or social media.
Voice Japan is still young — and growing fast.
We’re adding new topics, new voices, and new ways to explore Japan all the time.
Whether you’re planning your first trip — or returning to Japan again — we hope Voice Japan helps make your experience smoother, more memorable, and easier to enjoy — one voice at a time.
