The city of Matsudo used to be an inn town where travelers could stop and rest. Residents developed a welcoming nature and accepted visitors with open arms. It's a tradition that has endured for generations. These days, Matsudo is opening its doors to young artists, encouraging them to set up studios in some of the community's old houses. And at the heart of the city's hospitable atmosphere is the local tourist information center, which connects visitors to Matsudo's places and people.
