Experience eel-catching in a setting reminiscent of the traditional waterside landscapes of the Suigo region! Try your hand at catching eels in the shop’s holding pond, which is stocked with natural eels and other freshwater fish, simulating the methods of fishermen from the past. Tomura Kawauoten is a specialty store primarily dealing in eels. You can observe the preparation process of unajū (eel rice boxes) both inside and outside the store. This natural culinary education experience is possible thanks to our large stock of live eels. We welcome many families with young children who have limited opportunities to connect with nature, as well as adult friend groups who also enjoy this unique activity!
