Shisui, Administrative town in Inba district, Japan
Located on the Shimōsa Plateau in northeastern Chiba Prefecture, Shisui spans 19.02 square kilometers with a population density of 1,100 persons per square kilometer.
The municipal system established Shisui town on April 1, 1889, following centuries of control under the Chiba clan during the Muromachi period and Sakura Domain administration.
The name Shisui derives from local freshwater springs, where according to regional tales, pure sake emerged from underground wells across the settlement.
The town connects to major transportation networks through the JR East Narita Line, Keisei Main Line, Higashi-Kantō Expressway, and National Routes 51 and 296.
Archaeological findings reveal human presence in Shisui dating back 24,000 years through stone tools from the Japanese Paleolithic period.
