Abstract
Comparative study of foreign visitors’ perceptions of places by analyzing visual content of photographs
Highlights
The data obtained were geocoded photos taken within 1.5 km from three stations located in three major tourism sites of Tokyo: Shinjuku, Asakusa, and Ginza
Comparison of the distribution of the category of photos proved the differences in how three tourism sites are perceived by visitors: Shinjuku is characterized by modern urbanism and popular culture; Asakusa is characterized by traditional culture, urbanism, and people; and Ginza is mainly characterized by modern urbanism
These results indicate that visitors’ differing perceptions of places are explained by the spatial structure and attractions of tourism sites
