Thousands of tourists CANCELLED holidays after Japan's ‘Baba Vanga' predicted terrifying natural disaster

THOUSANDS of tourists cancelled trips to Japan — over predictions of a huge disaster in a graphic novel. The manga comic claimed the nation would be hit yesterday by a tsunami, an asteroid or even the end of the world. Advertisement 3 Thousands of tourists cancelled trips to Japan — over predictions of a huge disaster in a graphic novel Credit: 3 Japan's 'Baba Vanga' predicted a terrifying natural disaster Credit: Wikipedia Despite a volcanic eruption at Mount Shinmoedake and several earth tremors on its Tokara Islands, thankfully the doomsday prediction failed to come true. But it was enough for superstitious travellers to stay away. Nearly four million people visited Japan in April but there was an 11 per cent dip in May. Most of the cancellations were from people in Hong Kong but also from China, Vietnam and Thailand. Advertisement READ MORE ON JAPAN The predictions came in The Future I Saw, in which artist Ryo Tatsuki details her dreams. In 1999, the comic warned of a disaster in March 2011 — and that month a Japanese earthquake and tsunami killed 18,000 people. It garnered cult status and a Complete Edition reprint in 2021 included the new prophecy that the 'real disaster' would hit on July 5, 2025. But Tatsuki's publishers have insisted she is 'not a prophet'.

Cambridge city centre is an easy drive, and Stansted Airport is just 40 minutes away if you need somewhere to stay before an early flight (although that is still quite far). What is the hotel like? A convenient 161-room hotel is what you expect, with a touch more. The What is there to do there? There is lots to do on a rainy day enjoying the lobby bar or hitting up the hot tub and sauna.
