Tarumizu, Coastal city in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan
Located in the northwest Osumi Peninsula, Tarumizu extends over 162 square kilometers with its center developed along Kagoshima Bay and mountains inland.
The administration of Tarumizu transformed from a village in 1889 to a town in 1924, finally achieving city status on October 1, 1958.
The Senbon Ichoen Garden presents 1,200 ginkgo trees planted since 1978 by local residents Yoshiaki and Nobuko Chuman on their inherited mountain slope.
The population of 13,114 residents depends on agriculture, fishing, and food processing industries, with access through National Routes 220 and 224.
The city faces Kagoshima Bay with direct views of Sakurajima volcano, which contributes to the fertility of local agricultural lands through its mineral deposits.
