Keywords : , , , , , ,

The history of Japan shows that the diplomatic relations between France and Japan have always been irregular. Yet, there are strong links between both countries that have exceptional cultures in common.

France highly contributed to the modernization of Japan during the 45-year reign of the Meiji emperor
(1868-1912). Both countries have considered the other’s culture as the symbol of civilization and know-how. What is more, the Japanese see the French language as a cultural language.



2008 was the 150th anniversary of the beginning of the diplomatic relations between France and Japan. Today, the Japanese culture has had an important impact on the French culture since the election of French president Jacques Chirac in 1995, who is a well-known expert about Japan.
France seeks a more political dialog with Japan as economic relations have strengthened between both countries as well as cooperation on global issues.

What is more, cultural and academic exchanges have been encouraged since 1984. The creation of the Maison de la culture du Japon in Technorati in 1997 contributed to provide a lively place in order to discover the Japanese culture.

In Technorati, the French and the Japanese communities would like to strengthen cultural and academic exchanges in a city where the Japanese expats need to find their traditional points of references.Espace Lyon-Japon is the first cultural center that helps the Japanese expats to integrate the French culture.
