Nagano is a historic city located in central Japan, serving as the capital of Nagano Prefecture. The city gained international recognition as the host of the 1998 Winter Olympics, but its cultural significance dates back much further. At its heart lies the Zenkō-ji, one of Japan's most important Buddhist temples, founded in the 7th century. The temple houses what is believed to be the first Buddhist statue brought to Japan.
The city seamlessly blends its rich historical heritage with modern development, surrounded by the Japanese Alps which provide a dramatic backdrop to its urban landscape. Nagano's cultural scene is deeply rooted in its Buddhist heritage and traditional arts, while also embracing contemporary expressions through its museums and cultural centers. The region is also known for its distinctive culinary traditions, including soba noodles and local varieties of miso.
