== History ==
In 1993, the people of Inakadate, Aomori were looking for a way to revitalize their village. Archaeological exploration led to a realization that rice had been grown in the area for more than 2000 years.〔 To honor this history, the villagers started a rice field behind the town hall. With the paddy as a canvas, the villagers cultivated and used four different types〔 of heirloom and modern strains of rice to create a giant picture in the field. To allow viewing of the whole picture, a mock castle tower 22 meters high was erected at the village office. In 2006, more than 200,000 people visited the village to see the art.〔 For the first nine years, the farmers created a simple picture of Mount Iwaki〔〔 before going to more complex designs. Following Inakadate's example, other villages such as Yonezawa in Yamagata prefecture, have started to create their own tanbo art.〔
