Located almost in the center of Japan, facing the Sea of Japan, Toyama is a region blessed with abundant seafood and a diverse manufacturing culture, including traditional industries with a history of over 400 years. It is a fascinating prefecture where the magnificent natural environment, such as the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route with its mountain range of over 3,000m peaks and Toyama Bay, known as a "natural fish preserve," harmonizes with a manufacturing culture that blends tradition and modernity.
