岳の棚田


 有田地域の山の多い地形を最大限に活用するため、江戸時代(1603-1868)初期の農民たちは苦労して多くの斜面に棚田を築きました。有田町の北西部にある絵のように美しい岳の棚田は、1999年に農林水産省によって「日本の棚田百選」に選ばれました。約570枚の棚田は、雨水を蓄え、自然生態系を保護するために重要です。標高約400メートルにあり、棚田からは有田地域とその周辺地域を見渡すことができます。

다케노타나다 계단식 논


 아리타 지역의 산이 많은 지형을 최대한 활용하기 위해 에도 시대(1603~1868) 초기의 농민들은 고생하여 많은 사면에 계단식 논을 만들었습니다. 아리타초 북서부에 있는 그림처럼 아름다운 다케노타나다 계단식 논은 1999년에 일본 농림수산성에 의해 ‘일본 계단식 논 백선’에 선정되었습니다. 약 570개의 계단식 논은 빗물을 저장하고 자연 생태계 보호에 중요한 역할을 합니다. 해발 약 400m에 있으며, 계단식 논에서는 아리타 지역과 그 주변 지역을 바라볼 수 있습니다.

Take no Tanada Terraced Rice Paddies

In order to make the most of Arita’s mountainous terrain, farmers during the early Edo period (1603-1867) painstakingly built terraced rice paddies along many of its slopes. In 1999, the picturesque Take no Tanada paddies in the northwestern area of the town were selected as one of the top 100 terraced paddies in the country by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries. The approximately 570 rice paddies are important for retaining rainwater and for preserving the natural ecosystem. At approximately 400 meters above sea level, the view from the paddies stretches over the porcelain-producing towns of Arita and Imari all the way to the Japan Sea coast.


Various events are held at the terraces throughout the year by local groups. Take no Tanada Hall has a parking lot where most people park before exploring the rice terraces. Check the Take no Tanada Walking Map for the best route and photo spots to make the most of your visit. The map features a twenty-minute strolling loop, which may be overgrown in some parts, and a thirty five-minute course on a concrete path. Stone walls and other artifacts of agrarian life from 400 years ago are still visible.
