Extract from the Nagano Travel Guides:
NAGANO
, capital of Nagano-ken, is a modern, compact city some 200km northwest of Tokyo. Surrounded by fruit orchards and mountains, Nagano came to world attention as the location of the 1998 Winter Olympics, but it's been a focal point for the Japanese for far longer. Every year, around eight million pilgrims come here to pay homage at the temple of
Zenko-ji
, home of the legendary first image of Buddha to arrive in Japan in the sixth century. The temple aside, there's not really that much to see in the city itself, although it's worth making full use of the shops and facilities before venturing into the Alps.
