Overtourism in Tokyo and other big Japanese cities has become a big problem, especially after COVID-19. Places like Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka are now very crowded. This has led to issues like vandalism and disrespectful behavior from tourists. The overcrowding is putting a strain on the city services and making life harder for locals.
To fix this, Japan is promoting less-visited areas to spread out the tourists. They are investing in better infrastructure and making rules to protect important cultural sites. For example, Kyoto has limited access to some residential areas and sacred places to cut down on disruptions. Local communities are now more involved in managing tourism to make sure it helps both the economy and the people living there .
These efforts aim to balance the good economic effects of tourism with practices that are sustainable. By doing this, Japan hopes to lessen the bad impacts of overtourism and build a stronger, more resilient tourism industry that benefits everyone in the long run.
