Research Abstract |
This study aims to examine more sustainable management of a world natural heritage site and its adjacent areas in Yakushima Island, including resourcization of local history and folklore. It became more popular that urban residents (women people in particular) who might have influenced by information of travel magazines, travel to Yakushima Island seeking for its wilderness and visit mountain areas such as the Johmon-sugi Cedar. Intensive visitation of mountain areas caused a rise in the percentage of people who felt congestion in peak season. In national forests, there found a lot of forestry remains such as forest railways and settlements; moreover, management system to preserve these remains should be constructed. These remains could be used for educational resources in the medium-term or long-term. It is now a good opportunity for local governments to draw up a comprehensive management plan based on public involvement for diverse resourcization of Yakushima Island.
