The number of sites using EJP is gradually expanding. Introduced in this edition is Watarase-Yusuichi, Japan’s largest wetland. Recognized by Ramsar, this wetland is a fertile habitat for rare flora and fauna and spans Tochigi and other Northern Kanto prefectures.
The site has adopted some PICTOGRAMS, such as TOILET, PARKING, and RENT-A-CYCLE (in an arranged form), in its information maps produced by Nippon Design Center Inc. Irobe Design Institute.
