【人口20万人から半減】観光客806万人が素通りする都市…北海道最大の観光都市の衰退が止まらないマジでヤバすぎる理由【ゆっくり解説】

This time, we walked through the central business district of Otaru City, one of Hokkaido's leading tourist destinations. Otaru City recorded 8,068,800 tourists in fiscal year 2024, surpassing 8 million for the first time in seven years, making it a popular tourist destination. However, on the other hand, its population has decreased from a peak of 207,093 in 1964 to the low 100,000s today. We explored the commercial facilities in front of Otaru Station, Miyako-dori Shopping Street, Sun Mall Ichiban-gai, and the area around the Otaru Canal. Why has such a difference emerged between places bustling with tourists and shopping streets where foot traffic has disappeared? Otaru's city center, once known as the "Wall Street of the North," flourished with department stores and shopping streets. We will examine the light and shadow of this tourist destination, along with on-site footage, as it unfolds in this city today. Please watch until the end. 📢This channel accepts PR and collaboration inquiries from companies and organizations involved in local communities, towns, commercial facilities, tourism, real estate, and community development.
