Tochigi

Tochigi city in Japan's northern Kantō region is known for its well-preserved streetscape of kura — traditional Japanese storehouses — that survived World War II intact, earning it comparisons to Edo-period towns and the nickname "Little Kyoto of Kantō." The walkable centre retains historical temples, traditional shops, and storehouse architecture, while the southern part of the city borders the Watarase Yusuichi wetlands, a Ramsar Convention-designated site. UNESCO World Heritage sites lie within the wider region.
