Sakai

The town extends across fertile plains near the Tone River, with agricultural fields dominating the landscape and traditional buildings scattered throughout the area.

Established in April 1889, Sakai developed into an agricultural center, supporting the regional food production needs of the growing Ibaraki Prefecture.

Local farmers maintain generations-old techniques for cultivating vegetables and rice, contributing to the preservation of traditional Japanese agricultural methods.

The town connects to major urban centers through the Sakai Station on the Kanto Railway Joso Line, enabling regular transportation for residents and visitors.

Sakai's fertile soil and water resources from the Tone River create conditions for specialized agricultural production methods used by local farmers.
