Tourists in Tokyo's Shinjuku entertainment district on World Tourism Day
epa11628017 Tourists walk with suitcases through Shinjuku entertainment district, in Tokyo, Japan, 27 September 2024. Japan is aiming to have an all time record 35 million foreign visitors in 2024 with a boost in spending due to a weak yen. This large increase of inbound visitors causes 'overtourism', generating disruptions to local residents. World Tourism Day has been observed annually on 27 September since 1980, to foster awareness about the importance of tourism and its cultural and economic value. EPA/FRANCK ROBICHON
