Located around Japan’s largest lake, Lake Biwa, Shiga Prefecture is blessed with abundant water and greenery. Its convenient access to Kyoto and Osaka has made it a popular commuter area. With historic landmarks such as Hikone Castle, Shiga offers both natural and cultural appeal. Otsu, the prefectural capital, borders Kyoto City, while cities like Kusatsu and Moriyama continue to grow in population. Key areas for commercial building investment include central Otsu (around Otsu Station and Hama-Otsu) and the Kusatsu Station area, which has seen rapid commercial development in recent years. The growing population of commuters from the Keihanshin region continues to support local retail demand. Central Hikone is also emerging as a local business hub.
