Toyama City Walk

On Friday, I was in Toyama City.  It is very unusual not to have snow at this time of the year.  This really is a warm winter.

I first walked at Fugan Kansui Park.




The map of the park.

Then I walked in the old castle park.



An old gate was restored.

The memorial statue for the air raid the city suffered in 1~2 of August, 1945.  
Almost all of the city was burned with almost 25,000 buildings were destroyed, some 110,00 people were affected of which over 2,700 people dead and more than 7,900 injured.

A fountain with Christmas lights outside the park.

Toyama is now a very peaceful and quiet city.
