Suzaka

Suzaka, a city in northern Nagano Prefecture, Japan, is known as a town of traditional storehouses — the clay-walled merchant buildings and earthen-floored kura that survive from its prosperous silk-reeling era in the Meiji and early Showa periods. During the Edo period it served as a castle-town for the Suzaka domain. The city also has a reputation as a producer of Kyoho grapes, and sits close to mountain terrain in the broader Nagano highlands.
