Nakanojō, Hot spring town in Agatsuma District, Japan
Located in Gunma Prefecture, Nakanojo spans across 439 square kilometers of mountainous terrain with the Agatsuma River flowing through its center.
The establishment of Nakanojo in 1889 marked a significant transition during the Meiji Restoration, incorporating several neighboring villages into its territory.
The Nakanojo Matsuri in August, Ise-machi Matsuri in September, and winter Tori-oi Matsuri feature traditional drum performances and folk dances.
The town connects to major cities through the JR East Agatsuma Line and multiple national routes, including Routes 145, 292, 353, and 405.
Chatsubomigoke moss, designated as a national natural treasure in 2017, grows extensively throughout the region's natural landscape.
