Niku no Hyogoya
Find locally-raised Himawari chicken at this small meat shop that also offers advice on the best way to enjoy it.

Tatsunoya (Main Shop)
Established in 1697, you can experience a slice of Japan during the Edo Period (1603-1867) at this historical soy sauce shop. Strictly using traditional methods, soy sauces such as the "Sannnen Soy Sauce" are made by slowly aging domestic whole soybeans for a period of three years. Others, such as the "Sashimi Soy Sauce," are made by adding koji (rice malt) back into raw soy sauce to bring out its rich aroma. Soy sauces sold here are all-natural and do not contain any additives.

Sasagaoka-so Hotel
Sasagaoka-so is surrounded by pristine mountains and the crystal clear waters of the Chikusa River, where the natural beauty can be enjoyed throughout the year. Guests are treated to traditional Japanese kaiseki(seafood based) cuisine featuring different seasonal delicacies, including hot pot dishes in the winter. The hotel has baths made from the volcanic rocks of Mount Fuji, where guests can enjoy a soak in the region's mineral-rich natural hot springs. The hotel also offers a log house, where you can get a bit closer to nature and enjoy the natural refreshing fragrances of the wood as you relax.

Fukumori Meat Center
"A meat direct sales outlet that sells beef raised on Fukumori Farm in Sayo Town with full of nature's blessings at wholesale prices. The restaurant is directly managed by a ranch, so it is safe and secure, and offers fresh butcher's hormone (hormone udon set is also available) at reasonable prices. We have many repeat customers from far away on the days we are open only two days a week, so if you are interested, please come early."

Chuwado Confectionery
Founded in 1931, this shop offers a variety of confectionery unique to the town of Sayo, such as the "Morning Mist Rice Cake", "Sweetfish Monaka", "Deer Sponge Cake", and "Sayo Hime Yokan", which are named after the scenic morning mist in Sayo and evening mist in Tanba that has been renowned since ancient times. Visitors can try their hand at making traditional Japanese sweets (¥1,000 per person, reservation required) with the help of an artisan.

The Seimei & Dōman Mounds
This spot is said to be where legendary warriors Abe no Seimei and Ashiya Dōman fought to the death. Alive during the Heian Period (794-1185), these two figures are still regularly referenced in modern pop-culture and were often historically associated with magical powers. Vistors to the area can also see "Yaritobi Bridge" where the two were said to shoot many arrows at one another during their battle, as well as "Otsuke-ba", where it is said that Seimei washed Dōman's severed head after defeating him. The Seimei Mound has existed here since the Muromachi Period (1336-1573) and the Dōman Mound since 1797.
