2. Head to late night establishments where staff on the graveyard shift will be only too happy to welcome you. Some great downtown options are: the trusty Bar Zerro in Osaka, Jam Hostel + Sake Bar in Kyoto and Mickey’s Club in Kobe.

3. While away time singing your favorite tunes. Karaoke is one of Japan’s favorite pastimes, so you’re guaranteed to find a bar just around the corner from wherever you wind up. Most karaoke bars sell food, so you can grab a midnight snack along with those epic singalongs.

5. Head to a public bath
