Tokyo Stroll Supplement: Gunma Prefecture

A map of a portion of Gunma Prefecture.

This page is for locations in Gunma Prefecture. This prefecture is not part of my book Tokyo Stroll.

For information on Tokyo Stroll and this web supplement see Tokyo Stroll Supplement home page

For users of the Organic Maps, Maps.Me and Google Maps apps the items below have bookmarks you can import into those apps to make navigation easier.
Instructions and links are on the Viewing Locations in Organic Maps, Maps.Me, Google Maps, or Google Earth page.


Some entries on this page may include a note that says "Description to be added soon ." These entries are for items I felt should be listed even if the description is not ready to assist those who wish to plan a trip. When possible I included a link to an official web page, I suggest also doing web searchs for more information.


Gunma Prefecture / Gunma Ken (群馬県)

Formerly the Kozuke province it was renamed in the Meiji Period. The borders of Gunma Prefecture are: Tochigi Prefecture to the east. Niigata Prefecture and Fukushima Prefecture to the north, Nagano Prefecture to the southwest, and Saitama Prefecture to the south.

Official pages for each of the prefectures will have sections of interest to visitors. These will likely be labeled as dealing with culture, tourism, or events.
