Arashiyama area, Ukyo-ku, Kyoto.
The Arashiyama shopping district following Togetsukyo Bridge is bustling enough to touch the shoulders of passers-by in the past, but now it is sparse.
According to people working in the shopping streets, the number of tourists has dropped sharply the day after the Chinese government banned on January 27, and has further declined due to restrictions on entry into Japan and self-control in Japan.

The number of tourists today is about the same as the sultry summer(off season) more than 20 years ago.

Of course, I also refrain non essential and non-urgent outings.
