Tainai, Coastal city in Niigata Prefecture, Japan
The 264-square-kilometer city of Tainai extends from the Sea of Japan to the mountains, featuring the winding Tainai River through its territory.
The establishment of Tainai as a city occurred on September 1, 2005, through the consolidation of Nakajo town and Kurokawa village.
Local residents maintain traditional rice cultivation methods passed down through generations, producing high-grade rice in the fertile soil of Tainai.
The Uetsu Main Line railway and National Routes 7, 113, 290, and 345 connect Tainai to major urban centers in Niigata Prefecture.
Multiple dams across the Tainai River generate hydroelectric power while creating recreational areas for both residents and visitors.
