Taki district

Taki district is a rural region in Mie Prefecture that includes several small towns and villages spread across farmland and wooded areas. The landscape is carved by rivers and dotted with ponds that supply water to the agricultural communities below.

The district took shape during Japan's Meiji-era reforms when local government structures were reorganized. Multiple villages were consolidated to form the administrative area that exists today.

The region has long centered on farming, with residents growing kaki persimmons and green tea that shape the local way of life and economy.

The region is connected by train and bus services that link the different towns, though some areas are spread out and having a car helps with exploring. Plan your visits around daylight hours, as evening activity diminishes in the rural villages.

The area features multiple ponds and rivers that are woven into the farming landscape, creating a distinctive pattern of water and fields. These waterways have historically supported both irrigation and small-scale fishing traditions.
