The Daiō Wasabi Farm (大王わさび農場, Daiō Wasabi Nōjō) is a wasabi farm established in 1915 [2] and located in Azumino, Nagano Prefecture near the center of Honshū, the main island of Japan. [3] It is a popular tourist spot due to its watermills and the river that runs through it. [3]
A restaurant offers wasabi-flavoured ice cream and other wasabi-themed products. [2]
Outside Japan, the site is best known for its appearance in Akira Kurosawa's 1990 film Dreams during the film's final chapter, named "Village of the Watermills". [3]
Daiō is one of Japan's largest wasabi farms — covering 15 hectares. [3] [4]
