Scenic landscapes and historical towns draw interest in Japan

Travelers are highlighting various scenic and historical locations across Japan. In the Noto Peninsula, the Wajima Morning Market offers a glimpse into traditional daily life with its local seafood, seasonal vegetables, and the distinctive Noto dialect. Nearby, the Shiroyone Senmaida rice terraces in Wajima City serve as a representative landscape of the Okunoto region.

In Hiroshima Prefecture, the town of Joge in Fuchu City is gaining attention for its well-preserved historical streetscape. Once a prosperous post town on the Ginzan Kaido route during the Edo period when it was under direct Shogunate control, the area features old merchant houses. Visitors have noted that despite its beauty, the town remains relatively quiet with few tourists.
