Japanese town erects mesh barrier to prevent overcrowding at Mount Fuji

TOPSHOT - A person takes pictures of Mount Fuji from across the street of a convenience store, hours before the installation of a barrier to block the sight of Japan's Mount Fuji to deter badly behaved tourists, in the town of Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi prefecture on May 21, 2024. The plan to erect a large mesh barrier across the road from an Instagram-famous view of Mount Fuji made headlines last month when it was announced by officials fed up with what locals said were unending streams of mostly foreign visitors littering, trespassing and breaking traffic rules.
