  8. Is Japan a copycat (adopter) of Chinese culture or does it have it’s own unique culture? My decision is that Japan has it’s own unique culture . Japan has it’s own culture that include many things as sports, religion,clothing, and food. The main religion in Japan is the teachings of Shinto. It was predicted to be established around 300 before JC-300 and later arrived to Korea. Another example of Japanese culture is a kimono. Both man and women can wear it and is made with cotton and other fine material. It is considered an art and very popular it was worn back to 1,000 years ago in the Nara period.
