What Chiba places, cuisine, events, experiences enrich your Japan life?
The Chiba Prefecture government's international affairs division invites foreign resident volunteers to share the Chiba spots we love.

Conversely, what didn't work out or confounded you? Photo tax - irises at Noda City's Sogo Park.
