Have you heard that the local people are fed up with the crowd of tourists? Yes, this has happened. At a tourist spot, local people are doing a unique job to stop overactive tourists from taking pictures there. Actually, the residents of Fujikawaguchiko, Japan, were fed up of the crowd of tourists trying to take pictures of Mount Fuji from a famous place, so they together took a decision so that the tourists could not take good photos once the sights of the tourist spot are visible.
In such a situation, the people of the city installed big screens at various places, so that the pictures taken by the tourists could not be seen clearly and there would be no crowd of tourists. People claimed that crazy people were creating ruckus for some photos. Local resident Michi Motomochi says that Kawaguchiko is a city based on tourism, and the city welcomes them, but there are many things in their behavior that cause trouble.
A black mesh has been installed on the narrow footpath above the road from the Mount Fuji Viewing Point, which means that tourists who want to take a picture of this iconic place will be risking their lives by standing in the middle of the road and will not be able to take a picture .

According to the AP, residents are concerned about how busy their small town has become. Fujikawaguchiko has seen people clog their streets and narrow sidewalks to take photos of the area, with some tourists even trespassing on private property to get the desired angle of view.
But tourists also have their own point of view. France’s Anthony Hoque says the problem has been exaggerated by screen residents. “I don’t think such a big solution to the issue is appropriate, even if the tourists are causing trouble.”
