Places in Japan with London-style Red Phone Booths That You’ll Want to Visit ♩

British Style ♡ Red Telephone Boxes Are Retro Chic＊

In Japan, the proliferation of mobile phones has led to a decrease in public telephones,

but in London, England, there are still many【red telephone boxes】 scattered throughout the city＊

However, it seems their numbers are declining, and now they are being equipped with chargers and AEDs,

or turned into Wi-Fi hotspots, in order to adapt to the times and keep them alive.

Such efforts are wonderful, but the red telephone boxes still have that retro charm and are very stylish♡

They’re iconic symbols of London that make you want to snap a photo as soon as you see one♩

Taking wedding photos like this is also something to aspire to♡

But going all the way to England is quite tough...!
