Nagano is famous for its mountains and snow — and its SNOW MONKEYS. The Japanese Macaque is the norther most primate in the world and at Jigokudani Yaen Koen, they’re protected and fed to get through the winter. After being featured in LIFE magazine in 1970, the Snow Monkeys of Nagano have become an ironic image of Japan.
