Shibayama, Town in Sanbu district, Chiba Prefecture, Japan.
Shibayama is a town in the Sanbu district of Chiba Prefecture situated on the Shimōsa Plateau. The area is defined mainly by farmland with rice paddies and vegetable fields spread across its rolling terrain.
The town was formed in 1955 through the merger of two villages: Chiyoda and Nikawa. This consolidation shaped the structure and administration of the current municipality.
The Haniwa Festival happens each November and displays terracotta figures from the Kofun period. Visitors can see how the community honors these ancient artworks through a modern celebration.
The town sits in a farm-based area and offers limited public amenities, with one elementary and one middle school for residents. The best way to explore the area is with your own transportation.
The Niōson Temple was founded here in 781 and houses a three-tiered pagoda recognized as an Important Cultural Property. This ancient structure stands amid the rural landscape and bridges the old religious history with the modern setting.
