A village full of greenery, located at the foot of the Northern Alps/Azumino, where bell crickets can be found at the foot of Ariake-yama. The water from melted snow and the rich land contribute to the quality of the apples and rice, which are the village's specialties. Japanese sake made using melted snow water is also recommended. The village is known for having the longest life expectancy in Japan, due to its natural wealth and comfortable living environment.
