The Chubu, or central, region encompasses nine prefectures in the midland of Japan, west of the Kanto region: Aichi, Fukui, Gifu, Ishikawa, Nagano, Niigata, Shizuoka, Toyama, and Yamanashi.
The region comprises three distinct districts: Hokuriku, a coastal strip on the Sea of Japan that is a major wet-rice producing area; Tosan, or the Central Highlands; and Tokai, or the eastern seaboard, a narrow corridor along the Pacific Coast.
The region is served by Chubu Centrair International Airport (NGO), an airport on an off-shore artificial island in the city of Tokoname, Aichi near Nagoya, and by Nagoya Airport, which is located near Nagoya in the cities of Komaki and Kasugai.
