Namegata, Agricultural city in Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan
Located between Lake Kasumigaura and Lake Kitaura, Namegata spans 222 square kilometers of land with residential areas and agricultural fields.
The formation of Namegata occurred on September 2, 2005, through the consolidation of three towns: Aso, Tamazukuri, and Kitaura.
Local farmers maintain traditional rice cultivation methods across the fields, contributing to Japan's agricultural heritage and food production.
The city connects to major urban centers through National Routes 354 and 355, with the New Kita-Ura Interchange located 4 kilometers away.
The city territory includes plum orchards and chestnut groves, while supporting both freshwater fishing activities in two neighboring lakes.
