The Japanese tea ceremony, or chanoyu, is a traditional art form that emphasizes mindfulness, harmony, and respect.

The Taisho period, which lasted from 1912 to 1926, was marked by political instability and social change, including the rise of labor unions and women's rights movements.

Tennis is also popular in Japan, with several Japanese players competing at the highest level of the sport, including Naomi Osaka and Kei Nishikori.
