Situated in the south of Niigata Prefecture, Joetsu-Myoko is a place to discover the unknown Japan, where nostalgic scenery depicted in songs like Furusato and Oborozukiyo can still be found. Amidst the region’s rich natural landscape, a unique history and culture, sense of tradition and kindness has flourished. With elegant streets lined with temples, deep forests and snowy highlands, plus specialty produce each season, the area is full of charming attractions.
Many rice fields were developed in the area during the Edo Period by the lord based at Takada Castle. Those rice fields still form a large part of the Joetsu-Myoko countryside and produce the famous koshihikari rice. This is regarded as the best rice in all of Japan – and as a result, it’s best sake (rice wine) too. Everywhere visitors can always enjoy fresh vegetables direct from the local fields or the freshest seafood direct from the Japan Sea.
