🌾Take a trip to cleanse your soul at Oyama Senmaida, a place to relax and enjoy the original Japanese scenery
Oyama Senmaida, located in Kamogawa City, Chiba Prefecture, is known as the closest rice terrace to Tokyo, and is a spectacular spot with 375 rice fields beautifully lined up on the mountain slope.
The author visited in autumn and was captivated by the contrast between the golden rice ears and the red spider lilies.
You can enjoy the scenery of each season, and especially in the winter "Lights of the Rice Terraces" event, 10,000 LED candles fantastically light up the rice terraces.
This scenery, woven together by nature and human activities, is truly the "heart of Japan." It is a place that you should definitely visit if you want to quietly face nature.
🚃Access: Take a local bus (Nagasa Line or Kanaya Line) from JR Awa-Kamogawa Station for about 25 minutes, get off at "Oyama Senmaida Iriguchi" and walk for about 20 minutes.
🚗By car: About 50 minutes from Kimitsu IC on the Tateyama Expressway, about 20 minutes from Kyonan Hota IC [
