    Toyama Pref. Nakanikawaguntateyamamachi Ashikuraji Buna Saka 68
    This museum is a one-minute walk from Tateyama Station, the last stop on the Toyama Chihou Railway Tateyama Line. It features exhibits on the special geological, topographical, and biological features of Tateyama, as well as the history and natural environment of Tateyama caldera, the site of one of Japan's largest landslides. Its indoor exhibit hall features a number of exhibits from which visitors can learn about erosion control at Tateyama caldera in an easy-to-understand manner, including a diorama that recreates the view inside the caldera, as well as a simulation game. Real-time information on the Alpen Route is also on display.

    Would have been a 5 stars place to visit if they had a bit more English there... Really nice museum, but it is a pity that there is very little English in there.

    Toyama Nakaniikawa-gun Tateyamamachi Yoshiminenobiraki 12

    立山登山の帰りに利用しました。立山グリーンパーク吉峰は広い敷地に多くの施設があり、温泉ゆーらんどへは道を尋ねて辿り着きました。コロナ禍でマスクはマストですが、泉質は良く、肌スベスベになります。土日でも来客は少なくゆっくりくつろげます。全体的にぬるめの温度に設定しているので、長時間つかれます。

    This maintained walking trail follows the Lake Kurobe shore from the Kampa Valley suspension bridge. It runs through a beech and birch forest, and with little elevation difference it's even easy for children to walk. There are many sights to see including cold springs, and alpine plants, so it's perfect to soak in the refreshing forest ambience. It's about a one hour walk if you turn back in front of Lodge Kuroyon.

    円空×田中一光展でお邪魔しました。 円空の仏像はまず貸出されないらしく、館長の人脈で数年がかりで実現したそうです。 町外の方にはあまり知られていない美術館ですが、行ってみると面白いものが見れます。 入館料は600円です。

Toyama Areas

around-area-map

Toyama is one of the three prefectures that house the Japanese Alps, with its southern and eastern borders comprising one long stretch of mountains, out of which the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route is forged. While traditional crafts fill the northern coastal cities of Toyama and Takaoka, thatched roof houses offer unrivalled views against a backdrop of fantastic scenery at Gokayama in the mountainous area in the south of the prefecture.
