100 Fishing Village Heritage Sites (Japan)
The 100 Fishing Village Heritage Sites, more fully the 100 Select Fishing Industry Fishing Village Historical and Cultural Heritage Sites to be Preserved for the Future (未来に残したい漁業漁村の歴史文化財産百選), is an initiative of the National Association of Fisheries Infrastructure (全国漁港漁場協会) endorsed by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, Japan.[1][2]
Out of the original 350 submissions, a committee selected the final 100 fishing villages in 2006.[1] The purpose of the initiative is to promote interest in and reuse of the historic and culturally important facilities of the fishing industry and their traditional styles and methods of construction.[1][3][4] At the time of selection, some 6,291 fishing villages were recognized, one for every 5.5 km of the coast.[1]
