Higashikawa: Picture-Perfect Town (16x22)

Air date: Oct 14, 2025

Higashikawa, just 15 minutes from Asahikawa Airport, is known as a leading rice producer in Hokkaido. Its lifestyle, connected to the land and a spirit of "live as you like," has come to be called the "Higashikawa Style." At its core is abundant nature, photography culture, multicultural coexistence, and furniture-making. Tom Miyagawa Coulton, a photographer from the UK, turns his lens on the Higashikawa Style.
