荒牧町, Residential district in Maebashi, Japan.
Aramaki is a residential district in Maebashi featuring a river corridor and through-traffic circulation serving the local area. The Hirose River runs through the center, while a major route passes from north to south creating a transport spine.
The area traces back to the Kamakura period and joined Maebashi City in 1954 when Nambatsu Village merged with the city. This merger marked the shift from a rural outlying area into a neighborhood of the expanding city.
The neighborhood reflects daily local life with residential homes and small businesses creating a shared community rhythm. This blend of housing and commerce shapes how residents experience their everyday surroundings and move through the district.
The district provides retail shopping, grocery stores, and a university campus for various visitor needs. This mix of urban services and educational facilities makes it straightforward to find what you are looking for.
The area still maintains rice paddies alongside residential development, making the shift from farm to city visibly clear. This contrast between crop fields and modern structures shows how the region continues to transform.
