Shiroyone Senmaida Rice Terraces

We visited in July and had a great time exploring the rice terraces! You can of course view them from above, but you can also walk among the terraces, too! In different seasons, there are different displays, such as lights being installed for night viewing. I’d highly recommend visiting this area as it is very impressive! I have seen terraced field in many places across japan and other countries, but this place is especially magical because you it is on the coast.

The road leading up to this place is considered as one of the most beautiful in Japan so the drive alone is already worth the trip. I’ve visited both at night for the illumination and in day time and they have their own charms. The night illumination gives an enchanting feeling to visitors and I can only describe it as magical. Visiting during the day gives you a breathtaking view of the rice fields with sea of Japan as its backdrop. It’s a great side trip when visiting the Noto peninsula.

Was a nice stop! The rice terrace and coastline were beautiful and the little gift shop smelled amazing. I didn’t get any of the food there but I wanted to!

Absolutely worth a visit on your drive along the peninsula. It may be tempting to stay up top and skip the walk down the (very) steep hill to the sea but the views are worth make it worth it. The little shop but the parking also has lots of snacks including some fat onigiri.

The Senmaida Ricefield is a beautiful spot on the coast of the Sea of Japan. It's a great place for a break or for a more leisurely walk amongst the ricefields.

The footpaths are comfortable for easy access. During some months of the year, there is a light up events where the ricefield is lit at night, which creates a striking image of the landscape. Highly recommended.

Cool view. It’s cute to see one row of rice

Wonder who is maintaining this now

What a great scenic attraction. The rice terraces are amazing. The shop and rest area are a great place to visit too. Highly recommended in winter and summer. Great pictures and can choose to walk amongst the rice terraces as well.

Came in summer and the rice was beautiful. however it's a long way to drive so if the weather is bad, can't see the sunset, or there is no rice then it is probably not worth it.

Great location! Easy to find, free parking, bathrooms, etc. The views are great, especially at sunset.

Magnificent view. Combo of mountains, sea, and sunset. Last stop in my Summer vacation road trip.

Amazing view with the rice paddy and the sea of Japan. This place is unbelievable, a most go for scenic fans

Amazing sunset!
There is value to visit here.

Beautiful view with rice fields and the Japanese sea.There are some fields owned by famous people like a former prime minrster, Jun'ichiro Koizumi.

It is selected as a World Agricultural Heritage.
The state of the rice fields, which is gradually installed toward the sea, is very beautiful.
When the sun set, the edge of the rice field was lit up with LED. It was very fantastic.

Really nice place in Noto Japan. Definitely worth to visit this place!

Magnificent view, particularly at night with a clear sky. Just don't forget to wear jacket as it could get cold at windy nights.

I would like to add people in the scenery, making more lively!

You can take an amazing picture after sunset.

Went here on New Year's night. The lights were pretty sick and the sound of the sea was a nice reminder of how inferior humans are. I'd like to see this gem in the summer as well. It's worth your while!

Enjoy the good view and sweet desserts in here
