Welcome to the official Shiga YouTube Channel.

Shiga is located almost in the center of Japan.
This makes the prefecture easily accessible: just an hour and a half by train from both Kansai International Airport and Chubu Centrair International Airport, and just 10 minutes from Kyoto.

At the center of Shiga rests Lake Biwa, the largest lake in Japan and said to have four million years of history. The lake is also surrounded by verdant mountains, providing the blessings of both water and greenery.
