Iruma, Industrial city in Saitama Prefecture, Japan

Located in southern Saitama Prefecture, Iruma spreads across 44.69 square kilometers along the banks of the Iruma River near the Musashino uplands.

The region transformed from ancient Musashi Province, known for Sue pottery production during the Nara period, to gain city status in November 1966.

Iruma maintains its agricultural identity through the production of Sayama green tea while supporting modern industrial development in its numerous business parks.

The city connects to Tokyo through the JR East Hachikō Line and Seibu Ikebukuro Line, with the Ken-Ō Expressway providing road access.

Iruma Air Base, formerly Johnson Air Base, hosts annual public exhibitions in November, allowing visitors to explore Japanese military aviation facilities.
