The Hokuriku bullet train opened last year. I’m worried that Toyama’s personality will lost. My home town is Toyama prefecture; it’s in country side, in northern part of in Japan. The area’s public transportation was not smoothly connected to the Tokyo area until last year. The neighboring prefecture, Niigata, has a good transportation connection to the metropolis because one prime minister was born in Niigata.
Anyway, Toyama has a different culture from other places in the area. In my opinion, the inconvenient transport situation caused that. What was the economic effect on Toyama? I asked several people who included my friends.
Their answers were similar. At first, many tourists came, but now they want to go Kanazawa City in Ishikawa prefecture which is a neighboring place in Toyama.
I was surprised how beautiful the new Toyama station was when I arrived at night. It looks sophisticated and has a modern style. On the other hand, I felt sad. Because the change is really big, so I could not find the same atmosphere the old station had. I don’t blame this change. but I felt a little sad.
