Answer 1

"Toyama Prefecture is located approximately in the center of Honshu, Japan and is bordered by Niigata and Nagano Prefectures to the east, Gifu Prefecture to the south, and Ishikawa Prefecture to the west. Toyama is a topographically impressive prefecture. Mountains wall in the prefecture on three sides and the deep bay rests nestled in the crook formed by the rolling plains. It is a compact prefecture, reaching out in a radius from its capital, Toyama City, only 50 km in each direction.
Additionally, with its central position in Japan Sea region and a history laden with contact with the Asian continent, Korean Peninsula, and other rim countries, Toyama is at the center of activities in the Japan Sea region." [1]

"Toyama City covers a large area spreading from the center of Toyama Prefecture to the southeast. To the north, it faces Toyama Bay which abounds in fish, and to the east lies the magnificent 3,000-meter Tateyama Mountain Range which attracts many alpinists. There are hills to the west, and lush forests and paddy fields to the south. There are also a lot of rivers, large and small, running through the city, forming cultural blocs along them. All of those create first-class natural beauty." [2]
