Kudamatsu, Industrial port city in Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan
Located along the Inland Sea, Kudamatsu extends across 89.35 square kilometers of land with a mix of urban developments and coastal landscapes.
Founded as a fishing village, Kudamatsu transformed into an industrial center during World War I when factories were built on former salt production lands.
The Star Tower in Kudamatsu Park represents a local legend about a fallen star, which influenced the naming of the entire city.
The Sanyō Main Line and Gantoku Line railway services connect Kudamatsu to major cities, while the port facilitates maritime trade and industrial operations.
Hitachi's Kasado Works in Kudamatsu specializes in manufacturing railway vehicles, contributing to Japan's transportation infrastructure development.
