There are several facilities in various parts of Japan where you can experience salt making, but the most attractive thing here is the three "Yohama Shiota", "Irihama Shiota", and "Drift Shiota". ﾀｲﾌﾟ Shiota can be known in one place. isn't this the only facility in the whole country? The salt making experience uses "Kanshui (salt-rich salt water)" made in "flowing salt field", but directly sees the process of becoming smooth salt from liquid.
