Higashiosaka, Core city in Osaka Prefecture, Japan

Located in the eastern part of Osaka Prefecture, Higashiosaka spans 61.78 square kilometers with the Ikoma Mountains forming its eastern boundary.

The establishment of Higashiosaka in 1967 resulted from the consolidation of three distinct towns: Fuse, Kawachi, and Hiraoka into a single administrative unit.

The 7th-century Hiraoka Shrine and numerous ancient tomb remains within Higashiosaka demonstrate the continuous inhabitation and religious practices of this region.

The city maintains extensive public transportation networks through JR West and Kintetsu Railway lines, connecting residents to greater Osaka metropolitan areas.

Higashiosaka contains a high concentration of small and medium manufacturing enterprises, particularly those specializing in advanced technology and electrical appliance production.
