The Japanese government is working on a plan to make the country a more attractive tourist destination in Asia. A panel has come up with various ideas for entertainment and unique experiences that would attract foreigners to visit and spend.
The Japan Tourism Agency met with experts and officials to plan attractive options for visitors from abroad. Current figures show that entertainment services only account for about three percent of the money foreign tourists spend here. They have proposed making it easier for people to experience traditional culture, including "noh" theater and local festivals.
They say tourists should have additional options for nightlife, including clubs and shows that are more foreigner-friendly. They also want to create a system that eases the process of buying tickets for theaters and museums in Japan before visiting the country.
The government has set a goal of nearly doubling the spending by foreign visitors to about 75 billion dollars by 2020.◆massacre大虐殺、大量殺戮
