Toya, Hokkaido
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tōya (洞爺村 Tōya-mura?) was a village located in Abuta District, Iburi, Hokkaido, Japan. In 2006 the village joined to become a part of Toyako.
As of 2004, the village had an estimated population of 2,221 and a density of 19.54 persons per km². The total area is 113.69 km².
The village had yearly Gap Year volunteers from the UK sent by the organisation Project Trust, who work with the local Board of Education to teach English to the local residents, both old and young. The village has merged, and so the nature of the village, and the role of the volunteers is currently unclear.
