Nakatsu, Administrative district in Oita Prefecture, Japan
Nakatsu extends across northeastern Oita Prefecture, featuring both urban developments and natural formations including the Yabakei Gorge and coastal areas.
The region evolved from a feudal domain under Tokugawa rule in 1600 to become an administrative center following the Local Autonomy Law of 1947.
The city maintains regional traditions through municipal events while operating as one of 792 administrative units within the Japanese governmental structure.
The administrative offices provide essential services to residents and coordinate with other governmental bodies through an established municipal network system.
The Aonodomon Tunnel, constructed through manual labor over three decades, connects the city to Rakanji Temple, demonstrating historical determination.
