I get the impression that too many tourists have destroyed the town. It used to be much quieter with far fewer people. Now it’s crowded with commercialization catering to foreign fantasies, which doesn’t reflect what a real, traditional Fuji looks like.
@@lydiaktravels It has shifted from a serene, culturally rich environment to a bustling tourist hub. Traditional family-owned shops have been replaced by souvenir stores selling mass-produced items, and authentic tea houses have given way to trendy cafes catering to tourists. The once tranquil streets are now crowded, and the local culture feels overshadowed by commercialization. These changes have significantly altered its original authenticity.
