【About Hikone City, Shiga (滋賀県彦根市)】
Hikone is a cozy city full of culture and history situated on the edge of Lake Biwa, Japan's largest freshwater lake. It is home to the famous Hikone castle, one of the very few Japanese castles designated as national treasures. There's plenty to explore around the city, while nearby sites of interest in the surrounding area include Mt. Ibuki and Sekigahara. Those with an interest in Japanese history will love working in Hikone. Furthermore, travelers keen to see other parts of Japan will find it a convenient home base, as there is ready access to nearby cities such as Nagahama and Maibara. A weekend trip to Osaka/Kyoto to the west or Nagoya to the east is a realistic (and affordable) reality for those living in Hikone.

>>About ALT Work<<
