How to go to the toilet in different countries of the world

If you think that people in different parts of the world relieve themselves in the same way, then you are deeply mistaken. Today we offer you to find out how representatives of different countries go to the toilet.

Japanese public toilets do not have paper towels. Usually Japanese people carry special hand towels and use them after going to the toilet.

When entering the toilet, you must wear special shoes – the Japanese do not go to the toilet in house slippers, even at home. In Japan, you can see high-tech toilets with heated seats, built-in music, mini-showers, and even equipped with talking sensors.

A traditional Turkish toilet, or floor toilet, is a hole in the floor.

In the restrooms in Turkey, you will not find toilet paper – after coping with the need, you need to wash yourself, and this should be done with your left hand. Sometimes you can find toilet paper in Turkish toilets, but it is only intended to wipe dry after washing.

It was in London that the first public toilet was opened for the first time. The entrance was paid for, and this tradition continues to exist in our time.

At that time, public toilets in the capital of England were not very clean and sanitary, and, unfortunately, today little has changed since then – not only are the toilets in London dirty and paid, they are also difficult to find. In addition, public toilets are often the victim of vandals.

Recently, European toilets with a toilet seat have appeared in public places in India.

Despite this, instead of toilet paper, Hindus use water: often in Indian toilets you can find special containers with water, and in more refined places – even hand spray.

Singapore is considered one of the cleanest cities in the world, and public toilets in it are also no exception.

In the country, there is even a law that you must necessarily drain the water after going to the toilet. And if the police suddenly find out as a result of the check that you did not wash away after yourself, then you will face a fine.

Do not get lost if a woman comes into a public toilet to clean it. Most of the toilet cleaners in Taiwan are women, and they are not at all embarrassed by your presence, as long as they calmly do their work.

If you use toilet wipes, it is better to throw them not in the toilet, but in the trash can – sewer pipes in this country are quite fragile. By the way, in Taiwan, they use toilet wipes, and not the usual paper in a roll.

Like most Eastern countries, the Chinese toilet is a hole in the floor.

In public toilets in China, there are almost no doors, and most often men and women use the same stall.

In Malaysia, men and women use the same toilet, but there are separate women's and men's prayer rooms, so you should be careful not to confuse them with the toilet.

When visiting the restroom in this country, you can get splashed – it turns out that many toilets have a hygienic shower. It is a small sink, and sometimes just a small tap, which is located right next to the toilet – after flushing, a stream of water automatically appears from it for ablution.

In Amsterdam and other major cities of the country, quite often right on the streets you can find unusual men's urinals, which are an individual open stall without a door.

In Germany, toilet bowls of a rather unusual shape, equipped with a shelf inside the bowl, are gaining popularity.

It is on this shelf that the products of your life fall before you go to the sewer. And although many consider this design not a very successful idea, in Germany such toilets are in great demand.
