Snow Country Tourism Zone
The hearts of seven different snow countries become as one.
Uonuma City, Minami Uonuma City, Yuzawa Town, Tokamachi City, Tsunan Town, Minakami Town and Sakae Village. This region maintains a unique natural environment and culture, as could only be found in snow country that remains buried in snow for nearly half the year. These hidden places seem untouched by the frenetic changes of modern society. They are the place to come to and reinvigorate your spirit. An area where you can purify your heart. That is the foundation on which SNOW COUNTRY has been established. Seven cities, towns and villages that straddle three prefectures, yet they beat with one heart.
Snow offers various blessings.
In spring we have wild vegetables, and then rice, field vegetables, mushrooms and river fish. Snow blesses our communities in many ways. The Snow Country has developed a wide variety of dishes to help us last through the long winters. Within SNOW COUNTRY local ingredients and techniques have been used to develop recipes and hold events to introduce snow country cuisine. Also efforts are underway towards regional reactivation and the development of tourist attractions through promoting interaction between farming communities and the city with travel products including hiking and farming experience trips, as well as the revitalization of fallow fields.
