  • filter_dramaTalk
    There are many people who speak in each dialect in this area. For example, some Niigata people use ra instead of standard copula da such as ~raro instead of ~daro ("isn't it?"). Shizuoka people use ~dara instead of ~daro. In Ishikawa and Toyama, people use dara as an abuse word meaning "idiot".

    Winter sports - in the winter, cold, dry air from the Asian continent meets moist Pacific air, the result is a large amount of snow that falls in the Koshin'etsu district, also known as Snow Country (雪国 Yukiguni), since it receives some of the heaviest snowfall in Japan. This makes Chubu Japan's undisputed winter sports capital with attractions like [wiki=08f9e92edeba1ed1868ab9288a71e9b4]Nagano[/wiki], site of the 1998 Winter Olympics, and [wiki=76ef625e450606395c71d03b0c10fae2]Yuzawa[/wiki], easily reached from Tokyo.

    * Hiking - the [wiki=144697cfab8569bd120f7c652ccf3ca1]Japan Alps[/wiki] have some great hiking. [wiki=2d935735fed220cf443c5212b7112c55]Mount Fuji[/wiki] in Shizuoka is a symbol of Japan and a popular tourist attraction, both for viewing and climbing.
