Kyushu welcomed a record-breaking 371,057 foreign visitors in March, marking the highest number for a single month and surpassing pre-pandemic levels. The increase is attributed to the weakened yen and the resurgence of international flights, with South Korea, Taiwan, and China leading the entries. Despite a recovery, the influx from China remains below half of its 2019 figures due to reduced cruise ship visits. Source: MLIT
