About this event

This festival is centered around "Noda Salt," produced in Noda Village, Iwate Prefecture, using the traditional "direct boiling with firewood kiln" method. In Noda Village, which has a salt-making history dating back to the Edo period, food stalls featuring Noda Salt known for its mild flavor will be set up, allowing visitors to taste local specialty foods. In addition, a wide range of programs enjoyable for both adults and children will be held, including a salt-making workshop, performances of the kamishibai picture story show "Noda no Nadebeko," and historical document exhibitions. The concurrently held "Noda Salt Road Trail" and "Walk the Salt Road Gathering" also provide valuable opportunities to experience the history and nature of Noda Village.
