Eki Stamps from Japan Vacation 2024
In this world of digitality, having physical proof that you actually went somewhere and did something is a great souvenir to bring back from your travels. In Japan, there's "station stamps", called eki sutanpu. In English, you can simply call them eki stamps. They are rubber stamps for which you have to hunt. The goal is to add as many as you can to your eki stamp book. Although they are called station stamps, they aren't just found at train stations. Many tourist locations have specials stamps too.
My stamps from around Japan during my vacation in 2024
Here's the stamps I was able to collect during our vacation to Japan in 2024. Some stamps are very clear, while others have poor quality due to dry ink pads or worn rub. Such variation is part of the charm of this physical activity. I hope to collect many more on future journeys in Japan.
