NIPPONIA HOTEL Takehara Saltworks Town

Operated by VMG

Relive the days of the "Hama-danna" in Takehara, made prosperous by the bounty of Setouchi, salt, and sake.

Takehara is a salt town that retains the beautiful townscapes of olden times when the salt industry flourished. The splendid residence of the wealthy salt farm owners, known as the "Hama-danna" (“salt magnates”), sits at the heart of the townscape today. Their scholarly attainments were extensive, they had very discerning tastes in food, and now Takehara's food culture thrives. Thanks to the Hama-danna, the town has an extensive historical legacy of development.
