Imizu, Coastal city in Toyama Prefecture, Japan.
Imizu spans across 109 square kilometers of the Tonami plains, featuring a northern coastline along the Sea of Japan and scattered residential areas.
The establishment of Imizu occurred on November 1, 2005, through the consolidation of Shinminato city, Daimon town, Kosugi town, Oshima town, and Shimo village.
The city maintains strong connections to maritime heritage through Kaiwomaru Park, which houses a training tall ship and maritime educational facilities.
Imizu connects to surrounding areas via the Ainokaze Toyama Railway system and provides access to major routes including the Hokuriku Expressway and National Route 8.
Archaeological discoveries at the Kosugimaruyama and Kushidashin sites reveal ancient settlements and artifacts from early Japanese civilizations in this region.
