A report disclosed that the August hotel occupancy rate in Fukuoka Prefecture ranked fourth-worst in Japan. While the entire nation experienced some improvements in August’s bookings, only the prefectures of Fukuoka and Okinawa had lower numbers than July. Fukuoka experienced a new coronavirus infection spike recently, and that is believed to have slowed down the region’s tourism activities. Sources: NHK
