 It prospered very much as a collection point for daily necessities such as sugar, soy sauce and grain.

 Along with them, ceramic wholesalers in Hamacho and Kakigara-cho spread the household in the Kanto region.

 "Setonoichi", which conveys the liveliness of the past, is held every year for three days in the first week of August.
