Chino

Among the cities of Nagano Prefecture, Chino stands out for its position between the Suwa Basin and the Yatsugatake Mountains. The city spreads from lower basin country toward the highlands of Tateshina, an area associated with mountain roads, ski resorts and walking routes. Chino is also home to the Togariishi Jomon Archaeological Museum, where the celebrated Jomon clay figures known as the Jomon Venus and the Masked Goddess are displayed. Maemiya, one of the four shrines of Suwa Taisha, adds an important Shinto presence to the city.
