Japan’s tourism industry offers a new perspective on the behaviour of foreign tourists, particularly those visiting Kyoto. Due to the record depreciation of the yen, tourists from all over the world are visiting Japan, with Kyoto being at the centre of this influx.
In response to this situation, many experts are concerned about the harmful effects of ‘overtourism’. However, local residents interviewed by Japanese journalists did not express as serious concerns as the experts. They say, ‘Not only does it boost the economy, but also because tourists visiting Kyoto is a great opportunity to showcase Japanese culture to the world’.
This perspective represents a new approach to the challenges facing the tourism industry. While the increase in tourists certainly poses problems, it is also an opportunity. Japanese culture can spread around the world as tourists experience and understand the local culture and then spread it to the rest of the world.
