Japan town to block Mount Fuji view from troublesome tourists
Construction of the mesh net -- 2.5 metres (8 feet) high and the length of a cricket pitch at 20 metres -- will begin as early as next week, an official from Fujikawaguchiko town said Friday. "It's regrettable we have to do this, because of some tourists who can't respect rules," leaving litter behind and ignoring traffic regulations, he told AFP.
