Taiji is a coastal town located in Wakayama Prefecture on the southeastern part of Japan's Kii Peninsula. The town has a deep historical connection to whaling and maritime activities, dating back several centuries. This small fishing community has played a significant role in Japan's whaling heritage and has been a center for traditional whaling practices since the 17th century.

The town maintains several cultural facilities that document its maritime history and whaling traditions, though these practices have become controversial in modern times. Taiji's cultural landscape includes traditional Japanese architecture and local festivals that celebrate its connection to the sea. The surrounding area features dramatic coastlines and is part of the Yoshino-Kumano National Park, which encompasses important natural and cultural sites.
