Travel Japan from home with these prefecture-themed Gudetama stickers

With the “Go To Travel Campaign” promoting travel across Japan right now, it can be pretty hard to follow the government’s suggestion of staying home and avoiding unnecessary travel, especially when you normally spend your public holidays exploring Japan’s many tourist destinations.

These special limited edition Gudetama travel stickers allow you to feel as if you are travelling whilst actually staying in the safety of your own home. They’re also perfect for finding inspiring places to add to your bucket list for when life finally goes back to normal.

An individual sticker is available for every one of Japan’s 47 prefectures. Through collaborations with tourist spots, customs, cultures, food, and historical products, these stickers help to convey the charm of each region.

Normally, specific souvenirs like these location-themed stickers require the buyer to visit the area where they are then purchased and kept as a memento. But as restraints and uncertainty have been put on travel due to the threats of COVID-19, travelling and sightseeing have become the impossible. As these stickers are standard travel souvenirs, the purchaser has the opportunity to reminisce, hope or to dream of travel.
