Senpu

Senpu [紐夫; せんぷ / Sunpaku: せんぷ] is a city located in south-western Zōhai Prefecture. As of 2022, it has a population of around 23,000.
Senpu is the origin of the beer brand Snapdragon, which has grown to become one of the most famous and popular beer companies in the country. The city is also the home of the traditional Summui drinking custom sotobuki. There are multiple Sudaro shrines located around the region, some of which are believed to date back to the early 1100s.
Since the 1940s Senpu has been a small-scale centre of textile production, but due to its seaside location and its historical sights the city has also become a popular tourist spot. In recent years various agricultural crops have been grown in the rugged farmland areas of Senpu. Commercial fishing was once a busy industry but has now died away. Resort hotels have existed in the coastal areas of Senpu since the 1950s, and tourism remains an important part of the economy of the city.
