Hokuei

Few towns in Tottori Prefecture have a history as closely tied to the life and work of manga artist Gosho Aoyama as Hokuei. Aoyama was born in the former town of Daiei, now part of Hokuei, and the Gosho Aoyama Manga Factory museum celebrates the creator of Detective Conan. Around Yura Station, known locally as Conan Station, character statues and details extend that connection into the streets. Hokuei’s northern side faces the Sea of Japan, while its lowland fields reflect the agricultural character of central Tottori. It is also known in Japan for Daiei watermelons, a regional specialty.
