Kosai, Industrial city in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan
Kosai extends across 85.65 square kilometers of land between Lake Hamana to the east and Aichi Prefecture to the west in Shizuoka Prefecture.
The area developed from four merged villages in 1972, following its establishment as a town in 1955 within the former Hamana District.
The Arai Barrier Museum preserves local heritage through exhibitions of historical artifacts and documents from the Edo period checkpoint system.
The Suzuki Motor Corporation operates a major assembly plant in Kosai, providing employment opportunities and contributing to the local manufacturing sector.
Lake Hamana supports both commercial fishing operations and aquaculture activities, while the name Kosai literally means west of the lake.
