This historic city is committed to preserving and utilizing nature, history, and traditional culture through its Eco-Museum concept, which turns the entire city into an open-air museum. The entire city, including one of Japan's leading dinosaur fossil excavation sites, has been certified as a Japanese Geopark, attracting many tourists every year. The city's specialty crops include tomatoes and melons, and due to the large temperature difference between day and night, the produce from Katsuyama City is known for its high sugar content and delicious taste.
