@NIK4hJapan’s foreign tourist numbers projected to fall for first time in years in 2026 | SoraNews24 -Japan News-Japan's foreign tourist numbers are projected to decrease for the first time in years in 2026, according to a major travel provider. Despite the drop, foreign tourists are expected to spend more. The decrease is largely attributed to the Chinese government's advisory against traveling to Japan, which has led to a significant reduction in Chinese tourists. However, this decline is expected to be offset by increased demand from North America and Europe, where tourists tend to stay longer and spend more.
