Nanae, Agricultural town in Kameda district, Hokkaido, Japan

This southwestern Hokkaido settlement stretches across 216 square kilometers near Mount Komagatake, featuring Lake Onuma within its boundaries.

The town formed in 1902 through the merger of Nanae and Iida villages, later receiving official town status in 1957.

Residents maintain traditional farming practices and organize seasonal festivals that connect the local community through agricultural celebrations.

The JR Hokkaido Hakodate Main Line provides direct train connections to major cities, with multiple stations serving different areas of Nanae.

Nanae holds the distinction of being the first location in Japan to cultivate apples and develop the Baron potato variety.
