Uwajima Pearls

Uwajima is known as one of Japan's premier pearl cultivation villages. The pearls nurtured slowly by Akoya oysters in quiet inlets possess a deep, beautiful luster, and their high quality is renowned throughout the country. The Uwa Sea, characterized by its rias coastline, features calm waves and abundant plankton. This provides an ideal environment for pearl cultivation, making Ehime Prefecture one of the nation's leading pearl-producing regions. Known as the 'jewels of the sea,' pearls are a signature specialty of Uwajima. While they are not something to be eaten, the radiance of a single pearl, polished by the Uwa Sea over a long period, never fails to captivate visitors. If you travel to Uwajima, please take the opportunity to experience this beauty for yourself.
