Christo and Jeanne-Claude‘s installation titled "The Umbrellas, Joint Project for Japan and U.S.A." which involved installing thousands of large umbrellas across landscapes in Japan and California in 1991 might be the reason why.

Very interesting. Maybe.. that could be it. Cause for many years now. In many touristic areas all over the world you get installations like this in many streets. Don't get me wrong it does look cool. But I just never understood where the idea came from ehehheh
