Sagamihara, Metropolitan city in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan
Sagamihara extends across 328 square kilometers of land between Tokyo and Yokohama, containing three administrative wards: Midori-ku, Chuo-ku, and Minami-ku.
The territory transformed from separate villages into a unified town in 1941, later achieving city status in 1954 due to industrial development.
The city preserves archaeological remains from the Japanese Paleolithic period and features the Yogen Temple, constructed in 1598.
Multiple railway lines connect Sagamihara to Tokyo and Yokohama, including the JR East Yokohama Line, Sagami Line, and Odakyu Odawara Line.
The surrounding agricultural region produces rice, wheat, tobacco while maintaining dairy cattle and hog farms within the metropolitan area.
