Every year in the town of Tsunan in Niigata Prefecture, there is a snow festival that lights up the night sky. Taking place in mid-March, this festival’s location in one of the snowiest areas of Japan makes it a great representation of the beautiful Japanese winter season. This festival was originally started in hopes of revitalizing the Tsunan Station through tourism and excitement. The local community of the town of Tsunan is known for their fantastic hospitality, making it a great place to visit in the winter if you’re looking for some warmth.
