Namerikawa (and all of Toyama prefecture) lacks a Bullet Train line, so long distance travel usually involves first going to Kanazawa to the south-west or Niigata to the north by way of train or the Hokuriku Expressway.
Namerikawa has a deep seawater spa, which differs from other Japanese hot springs (onsen) and bath houses (sento) in that it uses salt water piped in directly from the sea.
Namerikawa is well known in the region as the home of Plant 3, a large supercenter type store that might remind American visitors of a Walmart - certainly rare for Japan.
The City of Namerikawa is a small local city in Toyama Prefecture with a population of 47,000.
Namerikawa Lower Secondary School (742 students and 21 classes) construction was started in 1989 and was completed in October, 1993.
The most unique feature of Namerikawa Lower Secondary School as the first 'intelligent school' in Japan is that the school facilities were made by incorporating a lifelong study centre into the school system as a whole, not drawing a line between the two.
