Authorities scrap Arakurayama Sengen park cherry blossom festival near Mount Fuji because of tourists trespassing, littering and ‘defecating in private yards’
I know I’m being Don Qixotean, but fuck these headlines that always give the impression that something larger happened.
Like in this case, the lack of a qualifier made me think all Japanese cherry blossom festivals were cancelled, but it was one Japanese cherry blossom festival in Arakurayama Sengen park near Mt Fuji.
That said, I have full understanding and empathy for the residents. Fuck tourists who can’t behave abroad. I wonder if they can’t behave at home, too?
