- When you arrive at JR Yoro Station, you’ll notice the many gourds hanging from above the platform. This is a nod to the local legend of an obedient son who went to the waterfall to collect water in a gourd, but found, when he gave it to his father, that it had turned into sake.

- Ogaki is Japan’s largest producer of “masu,” the square, wooden cups used to serve sake. Masuya, a third-generation masu manufacturer, acts as both studio and shop. Here, you’ll find numerous unusual items that make perfect souvenirs, including masu filled with bath salts and a masu in the shape of a beer mug.

- End your day with some old-fashioned Japanese sweets surrounded by over 200 years of history. The slightly sweet Kinchoen Manju, stuffed with sweet bean paste blanched in Ogaki’s artesian water and scented with sake, look too good to eat. Mizu Manju, available only from the end of March to the beginning of October, are also very popular.
