| Environment |
| Koriyama, an agricultural and light-industries based city of 328,000 population, is located in scenic northern Japan just eighty minutes from Tokyo by Shinkansen "bullet train." Since the area of Koriyama is rather large, the population density is not so great. Therefore, students enjoy both the cultural benefits of a metropolis and the beauty and healthy outdoor environment of nature. |
