Oyama, Industrial city in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan
Located on the Omoi River, Oyama extends over 171 square kilometers and contains multiple railway stations connecting different regions of Japan.
The settlement developed from a castle town into a post station during the Tokugawa period, serving travelers on the route between Edo and Nikko.
The city maintains international relationships through sister city partnerships with Mission City in Canada, Cairns in Australia, and Lübz in Germany.
The transportation network includes three major railways, with the Tohoku Shinkansen providing rapid connections to Tokyo and northern Japan regions.
Local producers create dried gourd shavings called kanpyo, which remain an essential ingredient in traditional Japanese cooking methods.
