Toyama

Toyama Prefecture is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces Toyama Bay to the north. In the southeast of the prefecture lies the Tateyama Mountain Range, part of the Northern Japan Alps, with peaks reaching around 3,000 meters. Snow that falls on these mountains flows down into Toyama Bay.
The sea is home to a rich variety of marine life, including many migratory fish.
Toyama is a compact prefecture, with cities and towns spread within a radius of about 50 kilometers centered around Toyama City.
With well-developed secondary transportation such as city trams, private railways, and sightseeing buses, visitors can enjoy a comfortable journey using public transportation.
