damian 0 Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 Hi, could a kind person pls explain what the difference is betwenn the "Yuzawa" featured on the Now! page and the GALA Yuzawa that has its own shinkansen station. many thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 I don't know whether this qualifies me as a kind person, but Yuzawa is a town and an area that encompasses a whole bunch of resorts, while GALA Yuzawa is one of said encompassed resorts. Can GALA be classified as a suburb of Tokyo? Link to post Share on other sites
Ski Japan Guide 0 Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 deebee Yuzawa, or Echigo Yuzawa to give it the full name, is a town. Yuzawa has about 19 resorts, including Naeba, Kagura, Iwappara, and GALA Yuzawa. GALA Yuzawa is a resort in Yuzawa town, owned by JR (hence the Shinkansen). Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted November 6, 2002 Author Share Posted November 6, 2002 Thankyou JSG. I appreciate the help. And Ocean, I am sure that it turns your stomach, but your response has made you a nice, kind and helpful person. Strange days these... just this morning you ate humble pie like a gentleman. Now this arvo you are earning the title of 'kind'. Are you feeling alright? Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 Just as the people say. GALA is famous for having it's own shinky/gondola station. Link to post Share on other sites
