Narita

Narita occupies the Shimōsa Plateau in north-central Chiba Prefecture. Although closely associated with Narita International Airport, the city has an older centre shaped around Naritasan Shinshō-ji, a Buddhist temple founded in 940. Narita-san Omotesandō, the approach from the railway station to the temple, is lined with long-established shops and restaurants; grilled eel is a local specialty. The temple precinct contains extensive grounds and the Great Pagoda of Peace, while the wider city lies between metropolitan Tokyo and the rural reaches of the Bōsō Peninsula.
