Niigata, a charming city on the coast of the Sea of Japan.

Here, the vast Sea of Japan stretches out, with waves crashing against the long coastline, like the heartbeat of the earth. The golden beaches are dotted with colorful shells and smooth pebbles, a treasure trove for children. At low tide, the mudflats are revealed, and small crabs scurry away, showcasing a different kind of vitality. Niigata's mountains are majestic, offering a unique color feast in every season. In spring, wildflowers bloom all over the mountains, like a colorful painting; in summer, the lush greenery provides a cool retreat; in autumn, the mountains are ablaze with red, and the maple leaves are like fire; in winter, the snow-covered mountains contrast beautifully with the blue sky. In the city, traditional Japanese gardens are exquisite and elegant, with small bridges, flowing water, rockeries, and carefully pruned vegetation complementing each other, exuding a rustic and tranquil atmosphere. Niigata, at any time and place, attracts the world with its unique beauty.
