Home of Tanemaki Gonbei, Agricultural heritage park in Kihoku, Japan

The Home of Tanemaki Gonbei is a Japanese garden in Kihoku, Mie Prefecture, opened in May 1994 under the hometown revitalization programme. Its planting follows the theme "flowers, greenery and water" drawn from the folk song and children's tale "Gonbe-san" about the farmer Tanemaki Gonbei. Within the grounds stands the Gonbe Yashiki, a house commemorating his legacy.

The site honors Tanemaki Gonbei, a farmer from past centuries who created growing methods that boosted crop production in the region. His work became the foundation for farming knowledge and preservation in this area.

The property is named after a local farmer whose methods shaped how people in this region grew crops for generations. Visitors today can watch how certain farming techniques continue to be maintained and demonstrated to others.

The grounds offer parking, restrooms, and signs in multiple languages to help you get around easily. The best time to visit is during daylight hours when all areas are clearly visible and accessible.

The garden opened in May 1994 after Kihoku decided in 1989 to develop it under the Furusato Sosei programme. Its theme is "Gonbe-san", the folk song and children's tale built around the life of Tanemaki Gonbei, who died in 1737.
