Michi no Eki “Shinyoshitomi” Iseki Mae Roadside Station is the hub of Shinyoshitomi Village’s development, offering features such as rest, information exchange, and regional cooperation. Next to the government-designated Dainosekango Ruins, it is one of the rarer roadside stations in Japan due to its integrationd with a historical site. At the center of this facility is a grassy lawn, which is surrounded by various facilities (like stores and a craft center) that are connected with corridors. Besides fresh vegetables, the stores offer products like tofu, tofu ice cream, and okara (or tofu residue) pie, all of which are made from regionally grown soybeans!
