A view of a snowy village as the sun sets behind the mountains. In the foreground, a red torii gate stands surrounded by drifts of fresh clean snow; close by, a tall wiry pine tree extends its branches in a protective arch over the gate. The tree's bark, branches and needles are pasted and clogged with heavy snow. A single visitor - a female figure wrapped in a large plain shawl - approaches the gate. Beyond, lights shine in the windows of a string of village houses, their rooftops buried in snow. Past the village, shadowy mountains rise up toward a sky turning an intense orange with the setting of the sun

A hidden travel gem in Shinshu

In the middle of Honshu is Japan’s second largest prefecture - Nagano - also known as Shinshu. Shinshu hosts some great travel spots.
