Sanyo-Onoda, Industrial city in Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan
Located in southwestern Yamaguchi Prefecture, Sanyo-Onoda extends in a fan shape toward the Seto Inland Sea, covering 133 square kilometers of land.
The region evolved from ancient Nagato Province through the Edo Period's Choshu Domain until March 2005, when multiple towns merged to form Sanyo-Onoda city.
The Sanyo Onoda City History Museum presents local heritage through exhibits about pottery, coal mining, and cement production across multiple engaging sections.
Visitors can access the city via JR West railway lines, including the Sanyo Shinkansen, or through the Sanyo Expressway and Chugoku Expressway road networks.
The municipal university, previously connected to Tokyo University of Science, contributes to the city's role as an educational center in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
