Higashi Gobata Terraced Paddy Fields in the Aburaya district of Nagato City has been selected as one of the "Linking Terraced Paddy Fields Heritage" by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan.
Many tourists and photographers visit this spot every year during the season from late May to early June to enjoy the scenery of terraced rice paddies and the Sea of Japan, and to see the fishing fires of squid fishing boats at night at the same time.
This page will provide updates on the Higashi Gobata terraces in 2024.
The waves were calm that day and we were able to see more than 10 fishing boats, both large and small!
Rice is gradually growing. There are about 10 fishing boats out continuing to fish, depending on the weather.
