Rice cultivation has flourished in Ibaraki for centuries thanks to the mild climate and large rivers, namely the Kuji, Kinugawa, and Tone Rivers. Sake breweries can be found throughout the prefecture, allowing visitors to tour and partake in sake sampling. In addition to rice, our region thrives in other agricultural industries. Various fruit-picking activities can be enjoyed each season.
