In recent years, the city has been promoting itself as a "Designated City of Food and Flowers" (食と花の政令市, Shoku to hana no seireishi), highlighting its agricultural areas outside of the city center.
U posljednjih nekoliko godina, grad se promovira kao "Grad hrane i cvijeća" (食 と 花 の 政令市 Shoku da Hana bez seireishi), s naglaskom na poljoprivredne površine izvan centra grada.
