The Japanese Alps are fantastic

#Kamikochi, located in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, is a popular tourist destination located on the upper reaches of the Azusa River in the southern Hida Mountains (also known as the Northern Alps). Designated a Special Place of Scenic Beauty and a Special Natural Monument for its stunning natural beauty, Kamikochi is a rare place in Japan with both designations. The only other place to hold these distinctions is the Kurobe Gorge in Toyama Prefecture.

Kamikochi's greatest appeal lies in its ability to experience majestic hiking amidst the surrounding nature, while gazing up close at the towering peaks rising over 3,000 meters.

Kamikochi boasts a wealth of natural wonders, offering countless attractions. Beyond the majestic mountains, visitors can also admire the breathtaking beauty of beautiful lakes and marshes, along with the gurgling waters of clear rivers.

Kamikochi's picturesque scenery is renowned not only throughout Japan but also internationally.
