Nagareyama Mirin Village Tour

Nagareyama City is a town that has flourished as a white mirin production area since the Edo period. There is a Kikkoman factory known for Manjou mirin, and factory tours where you can learn about mirin history and manufacturing processes are popular. Nearby are historic sites related to the Shinsengumi, which can be enjoyed together with historical walks. Nagareyama-Honcho retains old merchant houses and storehouses with a retro atmosphere. In recent years, access from central Tokyo has improved with the opening of the Tsukuba Express line, drawing attention as a destination for families with children to relocate.
