Full description
Ojiya City is covered with snow in winter in both urban and mountainous areas. While there are challenges unique to snowy regions, such as roof snow removal and clearing snow from the entrance to the road, roads and public facilities are equipped with snow removal systems and snow-melting equipment, so there is minimal disruption to daily life. Additionally, there are pleasures unique to snowy regions, such as winter sports, snowy landscapes, and snow events. / Repair needs: eaves of lean-to section
