BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE CITY’S BIODIVERSITY RESOURCES Geography The city of Kanazawa is located near the center of Ishikawa Prefecture. It is bordered to the north by the Noto Peninsula and to the west by the Sea of Japan, with its coast covered by sand dunes which extend north into the famous Uchinada Dune. Mt. Okuiozen (939 m) and other mountainous areas to the east separate the city from neighboring Toyama Prefecture, while mountains in the southeast rise to altitudes of over 1,500 m above the sea level, with Mt. Naradake (1,644 m) being the highest peak within the metropolitan area. Kanazawa‟s most important watercourses, the Sai and Asano Rivers, have their sources in these mountain systems, from where they flow towards the Sea of Japan, dividing the city into 3 plateaus. Further downstream, the Sai River divides the plains to the west of the city into a northern and a southern area, with different characteristics. The northern area is an alluvial plain formed by deposits of gravel, sand, clay and silt, which have been transported by the Sai, Asano, Kanakusari and Morishita Rivers. It is characterized by low humidity and mild slopes and contains the largest body of stagnant water in Ishikawa Prefecture, the Kahoku Lagoon (4.13 km2). On the other hand, the southern plain represents the northeastern part of the alluvial fan formed by Tedori River, the longest river in the prefecture, having a more hilly structure than the northern plain.

  • Chapter 8 Taxation
    A Guide to Living in Saitama Chapter 8 Taxation 1 Income Tax Saitama’s Prefectural Mascot Kobaton 2 Inhabitant Tax 3 Other Major Taxes All residents of Japan, regardless of nationality, are obligated to pay taxes. Taxes are an important resource used to promote a happy and stable environment for everyone. Taxes support various projects across a wide range of fields such as education, welfare, civil engineering, medical treatment, culture, environment, and industry. The two main taxes are income tax, which is levied by the national government, and inhabitant tax (prefectural and municipal tax), which is levied by both the prefectural and municipal governments. You may be exempt from paying income tax and inhabitant tax because of a taxation treaty between your country and Japan. To avoid double taxation, special exemptions have been established through bilateral taxation treaties between Japan and various countries. To check if these exemptions apply to you, please contact your country's embassy in Japan for further information. Payment of taxes must be done by the due date. If payment is overdue, an overdue fee will be incurred every day from the day after the due date until the payment is made. If your taxes remain unpaid for an extended period of time, your taxable assets will be seized. We encourage you to pay these taxes by the due date.
