Smart Ways to Avoid Crowds and Enjoy a Safe, Comfortable Trip to Myoko, Niigata Prefecture.

Date published: 13 March 2025

Myoko in Niigata Prefecture is a highly popular tourist destination among both foreigners and Japanese. Therefore, depending on the season, it can be extremely crowded, making it difficult to board your preferred mode of transportation or even increasing the risk of accidents.
During Japan's peak holiday seasons—April 29 to May 5, August 10 to August 15, and December 25 to January 5—accommodations are often fully booked, and traffic congestion is widespread. Similarly, during Chinese New Year (late January to early February), a major holiday for Chinese travelers, large crowds are also expected.

To help you steer clear of the crowds and enjoy a smoother trip during these busy periods, we've put together helpful travel tips and information.
