Sakiyama, Administrative subdivision in Taketomi, Japan

The settlement of Sakiyama extends along the coastal area of Taketomi, containing two notable districts known as Amitori and Kanokawa.

The area developed as part of Taketomi's municipal structure, contributing to the organization of the Yaeyama Islands region in Okinawa Prefecture.

Sakiyama maintains traditional Okinawan village patterns with local architecture reflecting the regional heritage of the Yaeyama Islands.

Visitors reach Sakiyama through Taketomi's transportation network, connecting to main maritime routes from neighboring Ishigaki Island.
