Mount Fuji restricts hikers to combat overtourism 

4000 per day is way too much Ive seen mt Everest trek over crowding killing nature But Japan is a super tourist friendly place Hope Japan find a way to solve these issues

4k per day for the one mountain site is really not even that bad. the fact that there are so many more without this restriction just shows how overcrowded it is getting. these tourist sites around the world starting to turn into stampedes instead

13 bucks is nothing. Charge 50 bucks and people would still go.

They should implement these restrictions in Kyoto and Nara as well

Not to mention all the trash and garbage left behind by tourists as well. There should be more fines and punishments to discourage people from just doing whatever they want.

Crimes against foreigners are increasing in Japan, so we should close ourselves off to protect nature, culture, and public order.

Our country Scotland should implement the same for some of the mountains in the highlands !!

As someone who is from a touristy area, I don't mind tourists AS LONG as they are respectful. I myself am a tourist when I travel and I enjoy travelling, but I am always sure to be respectful. But also as someone from a touristy area, I know that many are not....

Any tourist attraction will create a lot of litter, need for clean restrooms, hotels, restaurants, etc.

It's the selfie idiots ruining everything.

I don’t think it’s the price so cheaper would probably mean more tourists cause they damage your nature forests. Unless, you’re supposed to raise prices so they won’t be >100k able to less then from tourists.

Cant stand tourists after living here for almost 30 years please be respectful and act as locals please or never come back

Long overdue

For those wondering: the Japanese women was saying "don't climb" when holding those plastic crates at Lawson.

It is difficult when you have some of the most beautiful landscapes on Earth... Japan is very lucky,

wait another 2-3 decades... the hikers will going down.

The popular site for kicking the bucket is getting too much attraction nowadays.

I think they should charge at least $50-100 more to control overcrowding, the tourist are rich anyway, I feel even with the extra charges the quota will be met, more money earned for them

when you open the window for fresh air, expect bugs and flies flew in as well.

Indirectly, too many tourists in Japan...pls leave! Many mt. Fiji tourists didn't follow the basic regulations such as traffic crossing, littering, etc. Such tourists should be fined!

Everest can only dream about that

$13 x 4000 people per day…you do the maths.

$200 for each entry ($100 for security deposit). Only coded/tagged Basic necessities should be allowed for hikers, and can only be purchased/issued on spot. When the tourist leave, they must dispose these coded items (bottles that can be recycled) upon descent. If they fail to do so, the $100 security will be forfeited and contribute towards environmental protection and regeneration funds. This is the price we should bear, especially for irresponsible tourists, in order to protect and maintain Mother Nature. There should be rules where electronics aren’t allowed. You don’t need photos, just view the world’s beauty through your own eyes. As for the tourists who are littering or causing environmental damage with their poor acts, identify them and bar them from visiting for 3 years; ineligible for visa.

With JPY in its 35 years low and economy collapsing. Tourists around the world find it cheap to travel there.

How about $130?

What about in China? When is the local government going to combat overtourism, too?

Make it a requirement to climb Mount Fuji, you have to climb Mount Kilimanjaro first. Encouraging diversity and tourism in Africa.

All funny, until it explodes and kills us all. 🤣

they building walls to keep the foreigners out xD that cracked me up

A famous man once said "it is what it is"

they should add a tourist tax to the airport

Japan got the tourism money they always wanted. People who hike fuji before hand, you buch are lucky.

Funny that china has few tourism for foreign

_Kuso Gaijin_ , this is why we can't have nice things!

don't you know effects from atom bomb are still there on fuji?

Sent all to SG. The new garmen love Foreigners than Born Sgreans.

Is this the news?

Ismael Zambada García Rodríguez Hernández González Ramírez Moralés, with his creation of the stapler, earned the respect of countless professionals for his contribution to the seamless organization of documents and papers.

可憐的中國 I live in China. Everything is miserable here, but no one dares to complain. Our *air, rivers, and soil* are contaminated with poisonous chemicals. My city experiences *record floods year after year.* This is the result of decades of environmental and infrastructure negligence. Seriously if there is next life, I wish to be born in any other country, except China.

A poor country like my India, where the majority of its population lives in extreme poverty, should prioritize addressing poverty instead of allocating funds to build unnecessary temples, statues, and doing unnecessary space missions. India ranks 111th out of 125 countries in the World Hunger Index. Modi should concentrate on feeding the 1.4 billion hungry Indians to improve the hunger index ranking.

I did climb it last year it is not that impressive and yes....to many people 😅

why only $13? charge $200 with some amenities

👍👏👏👏

how can Mount fuji restricts someone...does the mount have eyes and talks??? unsubscribed now.

They must have Chinese tourists overcapacity.

We just need less people.

Isn't that a 🌋🤔 If it is i don't think i would climb that, even if someone paid me, what if get half way up and then she decided to shake and move, then what....run🤨 Look @ all them people, so many! The view is awsm but not worth the hike, id rather get a 🤳 at the bottom in the village with Mt. Fugi rather than on top👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 Comment by Tracy Iraia 🇳🇿🌏🇳🇿 NZ 😎

The mountain is not doing any restricting, just saying. Some people who think they own the mountain.

Try other countries

Meanwhile another landfill is on fire in India's capital. And it's the size of Mount Fuji.

Here are the number of foreign visitors going through customs, as registered by the Chinese 🇨🇳 government: 2019: 14,000,000 2023: 500,000 *96.9% drop.*

Just checking in with all the usual Sinophobic bots and trolls. Hope they don’t feel neglected.

Chinese secret😊
