DESPITE A RECORD-BREAKING WAVE OF 42.7 MILLION TOURISTS IN 2025, JAPAN HAS CANCELLED ITS ANNUAL CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL DUE TO EFFECTS OF OVERTOURISM

One of Japan's most famous spring traditions has fallen victim to its own popularity. Officials in Fujiyoshida announced on Tuesday that the annual cherry blossom festival will be cancelled this year to protect local residents from the "crisis" of overtourism.

The festival, famous for its breathtaking view of a five-storey pagoda framed by pink blossoms and Mount Fuji, usually attracts over 2 lakh visitors. However, the city officials say the surge in international travellers has made life unbearable for those who live there.
