comment
- I have studied and carried out research on positive and negative tourism impacts on natural and cultural UNESCO world heritage sites in Japan and other locations throughout the world. The types of tourism have been examined in addition to the geological and geographical aspects that affect the visitation of these sites. Specifically, dark tourism sites have been researched, including Nagashima Aisei-en, Hashima (Hashima) and the earthquake affected region of Tohoku in northeastern Japan.
