Can't wait to hopefully get some of those views in myself.

 

 

Great photos!

[Yuzawa or Echigo Yuzawa?]

Oops sorry for answering months after!! I'm sorry!

Thanks for the replies, got it.

 

Going next week.

 

[Yuzawa or Echigo Yuzawa?]

Hey, can any of you guys in the know explain to me the difference between Yuzawa and Echigo Yuzawa?

Is Echigo Yuzawa just the station or the official name of the town, but everyone just calls it Yuzawa?

A bit confused!

 

Cheers!

Thanks folks.

[Cool stuff on the new Forums you have just noticed]

I really like how I can tell if I have posted in a topic by that icon to the left of the topic title.

[Important news of the day thread]

Poor goths.

 

Gothic rock fans flock to Whitby's historic St Mary's Church in North Yorkshire during Whitby Goth Weekend to be snapped by photographers in the graveyard.

 

The cemetary is the place Dracula takes his victim Lucy Westernra during the night in Bram Stoker's classic novel, overlooked by the imposing abbey.

 

But now photoraphy is being banned around graves at St Mary's Church because they say is disrespectful to the dead who are buried there.

 

Signs have appeared since the last Goth Weekend prohibiting photography on and near gravestones.

 

Anyone on here a goth in days gone by?

Can't wait.

[Welcome to the new SnowJapanForums [+ ongoing updates]]

I thought it was time to signup and take part once I saw this new setup.

Looks amazing.

Obviously an enormous amount of time and effort goes into all this - no ads too! Don't know how you do it.

Kudos in large amounts.

 

Well done.

[From Yuzawa to Naeba]

Still planning but we are thinking maybe stay around the town area for a week and then go up to Naeba for 4-5 days for Naeba/Kagura.

 

Sounds like a plan?

[From Yuzawa to Naeba]

Thanks muikabochi, so you live in that area do you?

[From Yuzawa to Naeba]

I can see on a map but can someone shed light on the journey from the central Yuzawa town area up to Naeba? About 30 minutes by car?

 

We are planning a couple of weeks in the Yuzawa area and working out where best to stay.

 

Thank you
