Cities and Towns in Japan that Start with L

In Japan, there are no cities or towns that start with the letter “L.” This is because the Japanese language does not natively use the “L” phoneme (sound) and the alphabets do not have a corresponding character. Foreign words that use “L” are replaced with “R”, try that instead in the links below.
