Amagasaki City is located in the southeastern corner of Hyogo Prefecture and is a core city with a population of about 450,000. Hanshin Electric Railway, JR, and Hankyu Railway run from east to west, and you can access Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto, and Nara without changing trains, and you can travel to the three Kansai airports in less than an hour, making it a very convenient city. [A town with a castle] In 1617, by order of the Edo Shogunate, the fudai daimyo Toda Ujikane became the lord of Amagasaki and built a new Amagasaki Castle. For about 250 years, Amagasaki Castle boasted its majestic appearance as the defense of the west of Osaka until it was demolished after the castle abolition order in 1873. It was rebuilt in 2019 and has once again become the symbol of the town. [A town of human kindness] Amagasaki has many shopping streets and public baths that have been bustling since ancient times, and the atmosphere of the downtown area remains throughout the town. Talking to friendly, warm-hearted older men and women gives you a sense of nostalgia and warmth. [A town where industry and the environment coexist] Amagasaki took its first steps as an industrial city with the opening of a spinning mill in the Meiji era, and has since led the country's rapid economic growth. In recent years, the city has set high goals and taken on pioneering initiatives to realize a low-carbon society, including drastically reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and was selected by the government as an "environmental model city" in 2012. *The Amagasaki Tourism Bureau was established in March 2018 with the cooperation of various stakeholders in Amagasaki to work toward creating a future-oriented tourism region unique to Amagasaki that attracts tourists, enriches the local economy, and fosters pride and attachment to the region by making the most of local resources.
