Takahashi Takahashi, Chief of the Japan Tourism Agency, said that the Chinese government announced earlier that Japan has included Japan into the latest batch of outbound teams' destination lists. It is expected that the tour in China will be fully recovered in October in China.
According to the Kyodo News Agency, Takahashi Ichiro said at a press conference on Monday (August 21) that it is expected that the Chinese team travel to Japan will be fully recovered after the October National Day holiday.He said that the number of foreign visitors, including China, is estimated to return to the level before the outbreak of the crown disease epidemic.
Takahashi Ichiro said that the increase in the number of tourists has caused "tourist harm" such as traffic congestion.The Japan Tourism Agency will be committed to providing congestion information to guide tourists to use non -peak travel and go to non -crowded places.
