Okazaki, Core city in Aichi Prefecture, Japan
The city spans across 387 square kilometers of land, accommodating nearly 387,000 residents within its residential districts and commercial areas.
During the Sengoku period, the Matsudaira clan controlled Okazaki before evolving into the Tokugawa clan that established the Edo period government.
The Mikawa Bushi no Yakata Ieyasu Kan museum displays artifacts and documents related to the life of Tokugawa Ieyasu and local samurai heritage.
Visitors reach Okazaki through the JR Tokaido Main Line from Nagoya Station, with trains departing every 30 minutes throughout the day.
