Suzuka circuit description
Suzuka International Circuit is located 50 km south-west of Nagoya in Japan and is the venue of the Japanese F1 Grand Prix. It is designed by Hans Hugenholtz and has a length of 5,85 km with 17 turns. The Suzuka track is a very technical one to drive and consists of a good variety of corners, and then the return section is a series of sweeping, fast curves, where drivers experience high G-forces. At nearly 6km in length, it is one of the longest tracks on the international Formula 1 calendar. Circuit Suzuka is beloved among drivers because of the fast curves and technical demands. Traditionally the F1 Grand Prix of Japan is held at the end of the season.
Suzuka International Circuit can be divided in 3 configurations: the full circuit, Suzuka East and Suzuka West. Suzuka East runs from the pit straight to the Dunlop curve and back through a sharp right curve. Suzuka West is the other part of the full circuit. A famous part of the circuit is the 130R curve; the 130m radius curve after the Crossover. This curve is often compared to the Eau Rouge of the Spa Francorchamps circuit. It is known for its unique layout as it is shaped like an 8.
Suzuka International F1 circuit is primarily known for hosting the Japanese Formula 1 Grand Prix. It also hosts other races such as the Suzuka 1000km race, which is now part of the Super GT and the only one of its length in this category. Also well known is the Suzuka 8 Hours for motors which was held since 1978. Suzuka International Circuit is part of an amusement park with amongst others pools, hotels, golf courses and a theme park. Mobilityland Corporation, subsidiary of Honda Motor Co. Ltd. is responsible for the circuit.
Region
In Japan shopping has been elevated to an art form. High-end Tokyo department stores stoked with luxury goods sit next to world-famous brand boutiques, while discount clothing shops and used electronics retailers all vie for your hard-earned yen. One thing's for sure: you won't leave the city empty- handed. There are also other things to do than only shopping.
Ookunitamajinjya is a shrine where the major god Ookuninushi is worshiped as the protective god of the Musashi region. Located about halfway down Sugamo Street, a street that is very popular with the elder people, the Togenuki Jizo (Kouganji temple) has been long known as a place in which thorn of "illness" (toge) is "pulled out".
