Tokamachi

Every February Tokamachi hosts a spectacular snow festival. It has a longer history than any other snow festival in Japan and is second in size only to one held in Hokkaido. The large amount of snowfall creates a picturesque winterland. The large snow sculptures are magnificent and well worth the trip to behold. Tokamachi averages near three meters of snow a year.

Every spring in the month of May, there is a kimono festival that enlivens the city. The winter and early spring are characterized by cold wet weather and heavy snowfall; the bright and colorful kimono festival is a beautiful celebration that celebrates the region's fame for kimono textiles.

Kiyotsu Gorge is a spectacular gorge known for its steep cliffs of columnar rock formations and the clear waters of the Kiyotsu River. A 750-metre-long pedestrian tunnel provides several viewing points, culminating in the Panorama Station, where a reflective pool creates striking views of the gorge. The tunnel's artistic design makes it a popular destination for photographers, especially during autumn foliage.

Great karaoke place! Unlike traditional karaoke boxes found in Japan, Be-1 charges per hour by the room, similar to places found in the United States.

If you need a nice relaxing place to go to why not go to a hotspring that also has a waterslide with a pool! Located in Nakasato Village off the 49.

Head to nearby Matsunoyama for one of the best medicinal onsens in all of Japan!
