In Japanese culture, the time of day is expressed differently than in English. "朝" (asa) refers to morning from around dawn to noon, while "昼" (hiru) encompasses noon and the early afternoon. "夕方" (yugata) indicates the late afternoon and early evening, and "夜" (yoru) represents the nighttime.
Many public places in Japan have specific designated times for their operation. It's important to adhere to these times when visiting schools, companies, or other institutions.
