The Daiō Wasabi Farm (大王わさび農場, Daiō Wasabi Nōjō) is a wasabi farm established in 1915[2] and located in Azumino, Nagano Prefecture near the center of Honshū, the main island of Japan .[3] It is a popular tourist spot due to its watermills and for the river that runs through it.[3]

A restaurant offers wasabi-flavoured ice cream and other wasabi-themed products.[2]

Outside Japan , the site is best known for its appearance in Akira Kurosawa's 1990 film Dreams during the film's final chapter, named "Village of the Watermills".[3]

Daiō is one of Japan's largest wasabi farms — covering 15 hectares.[3][4]
