    Extractions: Son / Mura The regions of Japan are not official administrative units, but have been traditionally used as the regional division of Japan in a number of contexts: for example, maps and geography textbooks divide Japan into the eight regions, weather reports usually give the weather by region, and many businesses and institutions use their home region as part of their name (Kinki Nippon Railway, Chugoku Bank, Tohoku University, etc.). While Japan has eight High Courts, their jurisdictions do not correspond to the eight regions below. From north to south, they are: Hokkaido (the island of Hokkaido and nearby islands, including Sapporo Tohoku region (northern Honshu , including Sendai Kanto region (eastern Honshu, including

    Extractions: Nara from the air Nara is an ancient capital of Japan that abounds with archaeological sites and cultural heritage. Historical monuments in Nara were inscribed on the World Heritage List announced by UNESCO in 1998. This web page guides you on a tour of the nature, history and culture of Nara. The old Japanese word soramitsu was used in classical Japanese poetry as an epithet for Yamato, the old name of the Nara region. Because the Japanese word sora means sky and mi means viewing, Nihon-shoki , a history compiled in the 8th century, explained the derivation of the word soramitsu by the legend that a deity named Nigihayahi-no-Mikoto viewed Yamato from a flying ship and then landed there (see Nihongi translated by W. G. Aston, p. 135). Accordingly, this tour uses a satellite image as an index and aerial photos in explanations of the various things you'll discover.

    Extractions: Home Tokyo Guide Travel Culture ... Site Map Geography of Japan Geography Home Back Next Basic Geography of Japan Japan, a country of islands, extends along the eastern or Pacific coast of Asia. The main islands, running from north to south, are Hokkaido, Honshu (or the mainland), Shikoku, Kyushu, and Okinawa , which is about 380 miles southwest of Kyushu. About 3,000 smaller islands are included in the archipelago. In total land area, Japan is slightly smaller than California. About 73% of the country is mountainous, with a mountain chain running through each of the main islands. Japan's highest mountain is world-famous Mt. Fuji (12,385 ft.). Since so little flat area exists, many hills and mountainsides are cultivated all the way to the top. As Japan is situated in a volcanic zone along the Pacific deeps, frequent low-intensity earth tremors and occasional volcanic activity are felt throughout the islands. Destructive earthquakes occur several times a century. Hot springs are numerous and have been developed as resorts. Climate Regions: Location: Eastern Asia, island chain between the North Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Japan, east of the Korean Peninsula.

    JAPANESE geography. by Milan Vrana. Professor Kong Fah Lee, John Abbott College In the essay I have discussed the main points of the Japanese geography.  
    http://www.cyberport.uqam.ca/english/countries/japan/geo2.htm
    
    Extractions: TOPOGRAPHY The four main islands form an arc that is about 1300 miles long from north to south. Japan is a mountainous country of which only about fifteen percent is suitable for agriculture. Since there are so many mountains, the habitable regions of the country are overcrowded. The islands that form Japan cover 377 835 square kilometers. The four main islands are called: Hokkaido, Kyushu, Honshu and Shikoku that are surrounded by smaller ones. Japan is encircled by ocean, on the east and south side there is the Pacific Ocean and on the west side it is the Sea of Japan. The three closest countries across the sea are: China, Russia, South and North Korea. The highest peak is mount Fuji which rises 3775 meters high. In the whole country there are roughly 50 active volcanoes. The reason why this country is called "The Land of the Rising Sun" is because Japan is always the first to see the sun rise on the new day. Japan is made up of a chain of more than 3000 islands. The four main islands make up ninety-eight percent of land area. The land use in Japan is divided into parts; eleven percent arable, two percent permanent crops, two percent meadows and pastures, sixty-eight percent forest and woodland seventeen percent other; including nine percent irrigated. Almost six sevenths of it is covered by hills and mountains. That’s why this country is renown for its outstanding skiing. The 1998 Winter Olympics were in Nagano Japan partially for this reason. Japan has almost two hundred volcanoes and some are still active. The highest mountain range is the Japanese Alps many peaks are over 3000 meters high. The highest and most famous peak is Mount Fuji or as they say in Japanese Fuji-yama. It is actually a volcano that erupted almost three hundred years ago. It is surrounded by five lakes, during the winter season the top is covered in snow.
