Amagasaki, Industrial port city in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan
Amagasaki spans 50 square kilometers along Osaka Bay, featuring residential zones near the coast and manufacturing sectors along the Meishin Expressway.
The city emerged from a castle town during the Edo period and received official city designation in 1916, later developing into a manufacturing center.
The Tano archaeological site contains settlement remains from the Yayoi period, preserving evidence of early Japanese agricultural communities.
Multiple railway lines, including JR West Tokkaido Main Line and Hanshin Electric Railway, provide direct connections to Osaka and surrounding metropolitan areas.
The extraction of groundwater for industrial processes has caused land subsidence, requiring protective coastal dikes and updated water supply systems.
