Japan's tourism ministry plans to strengthen financial support for municipalities' town development efforts using historical tourism resources starting in fiscal 2026. It intends to provide subsidies to a wide range of local governments for projects such as renovating old buildings and preserving traditional events. The goal is to create more attractive sightseeing areas nationwide to diversify inbound tourist destinations and curb overtourism in major cities.
