Toyama, Japan


Postmarked Toyama, dated 8 November 2008.

Toyama City.

I can find out little about Toyama city.  It was almost compltely destroyed by bombing during World War II, but now it's one of the most influential cities on the Japan Sea side of the country.  It does have Toyama Castle, once the residence of the lord of the Toyama-han and now the local history museum.
