Inewa

Inewa [稲岩; いねわ] is a city located in Heisai Prefecture. As of 2020, it had a population of about 19,000. 
The city is located on a flat plain [Honbei Plain] also shared by nearby Meidaru, and its southern region is well-irrigated by the Yūnata and Ōmizu Rivers. Inewa is well-known for its cultivation of rice and blueberries [anji], which are considered a symbol of the city. Indeed, the city is one of the top producers of blueberries in the country. Inewa's most famous cultural attraction is perhaps Inewa Castle, an almost perfectly-preserved fortress built by the Komi clan during their conflict with the Tengō in the early 15th century.
The city has a number of sightseeing spots, such as Nōjosu, a small lake where fairies and sprites are said to live, and two perpendicular historically-accurate streets showcasing the architecture of Inewa in the 1700s, known as the Furukata ward. The Dōba Manor, a 19th-century stately family home, is also preserved in Inewa as a museum. The cuisine of Inewa includes barbecued lamb and horsemeat, often incorporated into dumplings [buto].
