Smoking on Tokyo Streets
Saturday September 30, 2006
A traveler to Japan asks, "Is it true that it is illegal to smoke on the street in Tokyo? I'm traveling to Tokyo in a week and after a 14 hour flight I think I might need one outside the terminal..." Any Advice?

It is recommended, not to smoke on the streets, you will see boards and signs on the road which show , No smoking on the streets. I dont think it is illegal
as I see many Japanese and foreigners smoke while walking.
But one should respect the non smokers,
so my advice would be to refrain from the same.
