Seiro

The landscape around Seiro is a low, intensively farmed reach of the Echigo Plain near the Sea of Japan, which has shaped both its settlement pattern and its agricultural and port economy. The town lies between Niigata City and Shibata in northern Niigata Prefecture, where rice fields and horticultural plots meet an industrial shoreline. The East Port area of the Port of Niigata gives Seiro a working connection to maritime trade rather than the character of a resort coast. Strawberries are a noted local crop, and seasonal farm produce forms part of the food culture of this rice-growing prefecture. Seiro reveals the everyday, productive side of the Niigata plain.
