Overview

'Water City' and Japan's capital of wax food models.

Famous for its pristine water canals that run through the streets, this town is also the birthplace of the hyper-realistic plastic food seen in Japanese restaurant windows. Several workshops allow you to try making your own wax lettuce or tempura. It’s a quirky, hands-on craft experience in a beautiful riverside setting.
