Located in the Nakayama district, known for its Nakayama Rural Kabuki Stage, in the central part of Shodoshima, the Nakayama Senmaida terraced rice fields are a sight to behold, with about 800 large and small terraces overlapping on sloping land at an altitude of 150-250 meters. In 1999, it was selected as one of the "Top 100 Terraced Rice Fields in Japan" by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries.

In the terraced rice fields, from spring to summer, bright green rice plants fill the fields, while in autumn, golden rice ears cover the terraces, showing different expressions in each season. The traditional event "Mushiokuri" held in early July, where people with torches called "Hote" walk along the ridges of the terraced fields, is also a must-see.

Surrounded by the Senmaida rice fields, "Komame Shokudo" is a restaurant that conveys the traditional food resources of Shodoshima. Here, the popular "Terraced Rice Field Onigiri Set Meal" features rice harvested from the terraced fields and cooked with fresh spring water. It is recommended to enjoy the meal while overlooking the terraced rice fields.
