| Unexpectedly Narita is famous for its water. Pure water is pumped up from an underground vein and used in the making of locally produced wine. |
| Narita's Hokuso plain is one of the major growers of peanuts in Japan. |
| It's known as Naritasan Goreiyaku (medicine with power of God). Since the Edo period it has been made and sold as a souvenir for visitors to the Naritasan Shinshoji Temple. All visitors used to buy the medicine as a household item, using it as a specific treatment against stomach ache and food poisoning. Today it is still sold at two drugstores on Omote-sando road. Both of these drugstores were established in the Edo period. |
