Why is Noto so special?
The richness of the
land and sea
Noto’s rare geography — where mountains meet the sea — has
shaped landscapes found nowhere else.
Within a single day, the scenery changes many times, each moment
quietly special.
A culture nurtured within the harmony of land, sea, and people
A way of life shaped by the balance between nature and those who
live within it.
It gently welcomes everyone who comes its way.
In Noto, nature and people live as one
— a culture you can be part of, not just visit.
