Japan Booth at Brussels Holiday Fair

From February 6-9, the annual Holiday Fair was held at Brussels Expo. On the first day, Ambassador Shimokawa visited the fair and came to see the Japan booth. During the event, the Embassy of Japan in Belgium, in cooperation with the Paris office of the Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO), held the annual demonstration with “Paro”, a therapeutic baby seal robot. Besides this, there were also various other introductions on Japanese culture, which made many people discover the appeal of traveling to Japan.
