You are going to want to explore your new surroundings, or in the very least, know more about all the fascinating sights of Toyama. This is just a general guide to follow until you establish a network of friends or discover your own interesting sights. If you are interested in the culture, history, and sights of interest in your region you should pick up a copy of Toyama by Walter Newport from the Seimeido bookstore located in Sogawa, or borrow it from the International Centre.<\/p>\n
