Cooking rice in a traditional Japanese hearth Tour Background Takashima City still thrives on the wisdom and culture of the people who live alongside spring water. On this plan, you'll spend the day experiencing firsthand what it's like to live with water, shopping at a supermarket used daily by locals and cooking rice in an old-fashioned stove.
