Higashiyodogawa-ku

Higashiyodogawa ward is an administrative division in northeast Osaka comprising residential areas, shopping zones, and schools. The various neighborhoods within it create a mix of daily living spaces and local commerce.

The ward was established in 1925 as part of Osaka's major administrative reorganization. This restructuring helped shape the city's modern development.

The district maintains several Japanese cultural institutions, including temples and community centers where residents participate in traditional festivals and local celebrations.

The area is well served by JR West and Hankyu Railway lines with stations such as JR-Awaji and Sozenji. Getting around and reaching central Osaka from here is straightforward by train.

Shiseido, a major cosmetics company, operates a manufacturing plant in the ward, while the technology firm Keyence maintains its headquarters here. These major industrial centers shape the area's economic role.
