    Fugan Canal Kansui Park is well worth visiting when you're in central Toyama, and it's about a 9-minute walk from the north exit of JR Toyama Station. The spacious park stretches along the canal, with the waterfront, lawns, paths, and trees creating a pleasant landscape. It doesn't have the bustle of many tourist attractions and instead feels more laid-back and relaxing. Strolling slowly along the canal while looking at the calm water and surrounding cityscape feels especially pleasant. It's even more beautiful when the weather is nice and is a great place for taking photos, walking, or simply unwinding for a while.

    This was my first time planning a trip to the three Hokuriku prefectures, and I already knew that the Fugan Canal area in Toyama and the Starbucks nearby were quite famous.

    But in this canal park with the cherry blossoms in full bloom, no matter where I walked or what angle I shot from, I could capture beautiful scenery with just my phone. It really proves that this place lives up to its reputation.

    I truly felt how wonderful it is here. My impression of Toyama Prefecture completely changed. Surrounded by the Tateyama Mountain Range, this city is absolutely worth visiting—even staying in long-term. I loved it here!
