Why it's still quiet

Japan's overtourism is a corridor — Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka. Two hours off it, the Tottori dunes, Matsue's black castle and Izumo Taisha are close to empty, with onsen towns that never learned to expect foreigners.

The friction

The weak yen is pushing people to look beyond the golden route.

Background

The San'in Region is an area in the southwest of Honshū, the main island of Japan. It consists of the northern part of the Chūgoku region, facing the Sea of Japan. Specifically, it is the two prefectures of Shimane and Tottori.
