Tonami Scattered Farmhouse Village Observation Tower

The scattered villages spreading across Tonami Plain feature approximately 7,000 farmhouses dispersed within vast rice paddies, making it one of Japan's largest scattered farmhouse settlements. From the observation tower, you can enjoy sweeping views of houses surrounded by shelterbelts spreading out in a checkerboard pattern. The 'water mirror' scenery created by sunsets reflecting in spring rice paddies is especially beautiful and a popular spot among photography enthusiasts. It's also recommended to visit during tulip fair season.
