Introduction:
The Ginza Honeybee Project launched in 2006 aiming for coexistence between nature and the city through beekeeping. Rooftop bee gardens frequented by honeybees have since grown in number, and today even more delicious honey is available in the upscale shopping district. The rich honey collected is used to make various products sold by prestigious confectioners, department stores, and hotels.
