One of the industries benefiting most from the weak yen is tourism. The percentage of inbound tourists staying at hotels in Kyoto, a popular destination for foreigners, has remained at an all-time high. The rate exceeded 70% in April, and remained at over 60% from May to July. Accommodation prices are rising, but the weak yen makes prices in Japan appear cheap to visitors. On the other hand, it is becoming harder for Japanese people to get their hands on it. The price may be so high that you hesitate to use the service, or the hotel you want to stay at may already be fully booked. Kyoto, which has been popular as a popular tourist destination, may become something that is both close and far away for the Japanese. (Kyodo News = Kobayashi Mayuko) ▽There are a few Japanese people here and there In late August, I visited a luxury hotel near JR Kyoto Station. I could hear English and Chinese conversations coming from near the front desk. The buffet-style breakfast venue was almost full. There were a few Japanese people there, but it seemed that 80 to 90 percent were visitors to Japan. For the full text, see source. Last updated: 9/13 (Fri) 11:31.
>>1 The LDP and Komeito promoted the idea of a tourism-based nation, and the public supported it. I’m sure many Kyoto residents will be crying tears of joy.
>>1 The ancient capital of Kyoto is on the verge of collapse due to the increasing number of Chinese Communist Party owners 70% of private lodging owners are of Chinese descent lol.
>>1 I lived in Kyoto for a few years It’s crowded with foreigners, expensive but not that interesting, and not as interesting as people say, so I think Japanese people would be more satisfied if they went to another tourist spot.
The financial cycle makes it clear! Jim Rogers talks about “the tragedy that will happen in Japan from now on” 2015/02/05 8:30 Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will be killed by the last arrow he shot, which will pierce his own back and go down in history as the man who brought Japan to bankruptcy. Devaluing one’s own currency seems like madness to me. The yen has fallen by 45-50% in recent years, which is unusual for a developed country’s currency. When this happens, nations collapse and sometimes even lead to war.
Even if a situation like the coronavirus pandemic occurs, there will be no need to provide subsidies anymore. For companies that take advantage of the situation and raise prices.
It’s not just because of the weak yen. In Europe, too, there’s a problem with Brits flocking to Spain. The reason is apparently the increase in low-cost airlines. Even in Japan, there are a lot of low-cost airline flights from Korea and China every day.
>>33 Everyone thinks that way, so you can’t stay at a hotel in Osaka. Even in expensive hotels in Kyoto, you can get a good deal thanks to the weak yen and inflation overseas, so there are only foreigners there.
There should be restrictions to prevent overtourism. For example, there should be restrictions on entry for Koreans who have a low unit price. The number of nights allowed should be limited to one.
I went to an exhibition at the Kyocera Museum of Art. Foreigners don’t use the subway because they’re afraid of security, so it was surprisingly empty. On the way back, I took the bus, but it was packed, there was traffic, and I was exhausted from all the sudden acceleration and braking.
