Utazu-Umihotaru Reconstructed Salt Field and Vat Shed
Reference/Local/Exhibition/Literature Museum
This is a reconstruction of the kind of naturally-flooded saltpans developed in the early Edo period for making salt. It adjoins the Utazu-Umihotaru museum, which presents the history and culture of salt making in Utazu. Very few such working reconstructed saltpans exist in the country, and many area elementary and junior high schools make field trips to it. With a reservation made at least 10 days in advance, families and groups can also try making salt using the facility (note that salt making activities may be cancelled due to weather).
