Izumiotsu, Administrative district in Osaka, Japan

Izumiotsu is a city in southern Osaka Prefecture that stretches along Osaka Bay with mostly flat terrain. The urban area sits close to the waterfront, mixing residential neighborhoods with areas tied to local industry.

The region was once part of ancient Izumi Province and served as a strategic coastal settlement in early times. In later centuries, it developed as a major center for blanket manufacturing, which came to define its modern character.

This place has been the heart of Japanese cotton blanket manufacturing for generations, shaping the local craft tradition. Walking through the streets, you can sense how this production heritage has defined the community and its daily rhythm.

The city is well served by the Nankai Main Line, with direct train connections to central Osaka. Visitors can find accommodations and restaurants easily in the city center, while proximity to the bay offers various opportunities for exploring.

The Ikegami-Sone archaeological site preserves remains from ancient settlements and holds national historic site status. The ruins there offer a rare glimpse into the early life of this coastal area.
