About Yamanashi Prefecture
Yamanashi Prefecture is an inland prefecture located nearly in the center of the Japanese archipelago, and its capital is Kofu City. With an area of 4,465.27 square kilometers, it is surrounded by Mount Fuji, the Southern Alps, Yatsugatake, and the deep Chichibu mountain range, meaning that a large portion of the prefecture’s land is covered in forest. Because topography and climate vary across different regions—such as the Kofu Basin, Kyotou, Kyonan, the northern foothills of Fuji, and the eastern region—live cameras are useful for monitoring conditions around rivers such as the Fuji River, Fuefuki River, and Kama River, as well as along National Routes 20, 52, 138, and 139, and in areas near Fuji Five Lakes and other tourist destinations.
