>Japanese authorities in a town near Mount Fuji have cancelled this year's cherry blossom festival, saying a surge in tourist numbers is unmanageable for locals.
The influx of tourists to the town of Fujiyoshida has led to chronic traffic congestion and litter, while some residents say they've experienced tourists trespassing or defecating in private gardens.
The area is a popular destination during spring because Japan's world-renowned cherry trees are in full bloom, and can be admired with Mount Fuji in the background.
