Industrial Tourism in Japan
Chubu Area
Niigata
Niigata is adjacent to the Sea of Japan and the inlands experiences heavy snow during the winter. The Echigo Plain – where two of the largest rivers in Japan flow: the Agano River and the Shinano River – is one of the largest producers of rice, revolving around the Koshihikari brand. High-end brands of rice from the Uonuma region are especially well-known. Its rich water resources grow high-quality rice, enabling an active sake brewing industry as well as the production of food and semiconductors, where the water is used to wash precision equipment. Niigata’s natural gas production also accounts for 80% of national production. The Port of Niigata has a regular container shipping line to China, Korea, and Russia, functioning as the gate between neighboring countries. Niigata also has an active fishing industry, known throughout Japan for its yellowtail, crab, and salmon.

Toyama
Toyama is bordered by the sea as well as mountains and has many large and rapid rivers. It has access to abundant amounts of good water from the mountains and has eight water sources which were selected by the Ministry of the Environment to be part of Japan’s 100 Remarkable Waters, which is the most in the country. Since Toyama has a lot of land that is suited to growing rice, paddy fields account for 95.6% of its agricultural land, which was the highest number in Japan in 2016. It is also characterized by being Japan’s largest shipper of tulip bulbs in 2015 and by being an active pharmaceutical drug producer since olden times. It was also Japan’s largest producer of pharmaceutical drugs in 2015. Traveling medicine sellers from Toyama are popular throughout Japan. The fishing industry is active thanks to Toyama Bay – which lies just in front of the prefecture and is rich with marine resources – and revolves around fixed-net fishing. Toyama’s traditional crafts include Takaoka ironware – which has been around since 1611 – and Inami wood carvings, which are temple sculptures that have been continually produced since the 18th century.

Ishikawa
Ishikawa used to be called Kaga back in the early modern period and developed a refined culture under the reign of the lord at the time. Kenroku-en was built during that time, becoming one of the three top gardens in Japan and a popular tourist destination. Factors that contributed to the development of Ishikawa’s culture are water transportation and climate; it used the Sea of Japan to transport goods and was a major port for Kitamae cargo ships. It also has a wet climate perfect for handling gold film for plating. There are many classic Japanese traditional crafts, such as Kaga yuzen or dyed textiles, Wajima lacquerware, and Kutani ware. It is active in the food industry as a producer of Japanese confections to this day. Ishikawa has rich marine resources due to its long coastline. Its manufacturing industry is the most active in the production of equipment and makes construction equipment, liquid crystal, and computer components.

Nagano
Nagano has a high-elevation mountain range called the Japanese Alps, which includes the Hida, Kiso, and Akaishi Mountains. Its high elevation provides a cool climate fit for lettuce, celery, and blueberry production, for which it ranked at the top nationally in 2013. It is also an active producer of fruit such as apples, grapes, and pears. Karuizawa and other highland areas are also known as the Japanese royal family’s summer resort and are a popular winter holiday destination as well. It was where the Kawanakajima Battle took place back in the late 16th century, increasing the demand for weaponry. This translated into a traditional blade craft called shinshu uchi hamono, meaning forged blades such as scythes and cooking knives. The precision equipment industry grew in the Suwa region due to its clear air and water.
