Eniwa, City in Ishikari Subprefecture, Japan

Located between Sapporo and New Chitose Airport, Eniwa extends across 294 square kilometers of land with Mount Eniwa rising in the background.

The region contains archaeological evidence from the Initial Jomon period dating to 7000 BC, including discovered lacquered combs and earthenware at the Karinba site.

The name Eniwa derives from Ainu language e-en-iwa meaning sharp mountain, later adapted into Japanese characters representing blessed garden.

Seven industrial parks within the city host 260 companies, while five daycare centers and three support facilities serve the growing population of 70,278 residents.

The Sapporo Brewery established its facility in Eniwa during 1989, marking a significant industrial development for this Hokkaido municipality.
