About
Stretching from the eastern outskirts of Tokyo to the rural Bōsō
Peninsula, Chiba is both one Japan's largest industrial areas and its second-highest agricultural producer. If you've eaten vegetables in Japan, chances are some of them came from Chiba, which leads the nation in producing carrots, cabbage, daikon radish, corn, and more. The area is also well-known as a producer of peanuts. Chiba's capital is Chiba City, a large urban area along the western coast. Other major cities include Ichikawa, Kamogawa, and Narita, the latter of which is close to the famous Narita Airport, Japan’s largest international airport. Major tourist attractions like the Tokyo Disney Resort and Kamogawa Sea World make Chiba a must-visit destination for travelers from near and far alike.

【About Katsuura City, Chiba Prefecture (千葉県勝浦市)】
Katsuura is a coastal city on the south-eastern edge of Chiba's Boso Peninsula. It is home to the Katsuura Morning Market, one of the three largest of its kind in Japan, where local vendors have been selling fresh seafood and seasonal produce for over 400 years. The city’s rugged coastline offers stunning natural beauty, particularly at the Ubara Utopia hiking trails and the iconic Katsuura Marine Park, where an underwater observation tower allows you to peer directly into the sea's depths. Visitors often flock here in early spring for the Big Hina Matsuri, when thousands of traditional dolls blanket the stone steps of Tomisaki Shrine. And after a day of exploration, why not top it all off with a bowl of Katsuura Tantanmen—a spicy, soy-based ramen originally created to warm the bodies of local fishermen and divers. If you want a city with maritime traditions and a refreshing Pacific breeze, Katsuura is the place for you.
