ABOUT
In the village of Tomonoura (southern part of Fukuyama city), which prospered as a tidal waiting port, the tradition of blacksmiths manufacturing anchors is still carried on today at the Tomonoura Steel Industrial Park.
In the northern part of Fukuyama City, cotton cultivation has been encouraged since the Edo period. It has flourished as a production area for one of Japan’s three major kasuri fabrics “Bingo Kasuri” and has become a major producer of domestically made denim and jeans.
