Tomisato, Agricultural city in Chiba Prefecture, Japan.

Located 25 kilometers from Chiba and 5 kilometers from Narita International Airport, Tomisato spreads across 53.91 square kilometers of land in northern Chiba Prefecture.

During the Edo period, this area contained horse ranches operated by the Tokugawa Shogunate before transforming into Tomisato Village on April 1, 1889.

The local economy maintains strong ties to agriculture, with 68 percent of the territory dedicated to forests and farmland production throughout the year.

The city connects to major transportation routes through the Higashi-Kantō Expressway, National Route 298, and National Route 409, facilitating regional mobility.

Tomisato experienced notable involvement in the Sanrizuka Struggle of the 1960s and 1970s during the construction of Narita International Airport.
