Sayamaike Dango

Sayamaike is Japan's oldest dam-type reservoir, constructed during the Asuka period. These dumplings are a beloved treat enjoyed by those visiting the shores of this pond, which has watched over 1,400 years of history. Sayamaike is a prestigious reservoir whose name appears in the 'Kojiki' and 'Nihon Shoki'. It is said that historical figures such as Gyoki in the Nara period, Chogen in the Kamakura period, and Katagiri Katsumoto in the Edo period worked on its renovation. Today, it is known as a famous spot for cherry blossoms and a place of relaxation for citizens, with a constant stream of people strolling around the pond. This sweet is the perfect companion for such a pond-side walk. Take a bite while gazing at the waterside. A leisurely time flows by, allowing you to reflect on its long history.
