Potongan harga yang mendukung untuk perpanjangan Hokuriku Shinkansen.

Feb 19 (News On Japan) - Pada 16 Maret mendatang, perpanjangan jalur Shinkansen Hokuriku akan dibuka, dan ini membawa perubahan besar pada Stasiun Fukui, salah satu stasiun pemberhentian baru. Di depan stasiun, ada monumen dinosaurus seukuran manusia yang menciptakan suasana prasejarah, dengan Tyrannosaurus juga sedang dalam proses pembangunan.

Terkait dengan perpanjangan tersebut, pemerintah telah mengenalkan program "Diskon Dukungan Hokuriku" untuk empat prefektur di Hokuriku. Namun, kemungkinan Prefektur Ishikawa akan menunda pelaksanaan inisiatif ini karena masih berjuang dengan pemulihan dan menghadapi evakuasi sekunder.

Sebaliknya, ryokan di Awara Onsen, Prefektur Fukui, yang mengalami reputasi buruk setelah gempa bumi, kini memiliki harapan berkat adanya "Diskon Bantuan". Tantangannya sekarang adalah menyeimbangkan pemulihan dari bencana dengan upaya memulihkan industri pariwisata. Perjalanan ke Hokuriku yang penuh dinamika melibatkan penanganan baik aspek pemulihan maupun keberlanjutan industri pariwisata.
