Michi-no-Eki Sakagura Okuizumo Koryukan is a roadside station operated by Okuizumo Shuzo brewery. A March 2025 renovation added the Sakagura Specialty Market, which sells Nita rice, vegetables and fruit alongside Japanese sake. The light-meal corner serves rice balls, noodles and amazake soft-serve ice cream; amazake is a sweet fermented rice drink.
