Tajimi, Ceramic production center in Gifu Prefecture, Japan

The city of Tajimi spans 117 square kilometers across the southern border of Gifu Prefecture, with a population of 110,070 residents spread throughout 46,580 households.

Tajimi transformed from a traditional Mino Province territory under Tokugawa shogunate control into an established town in 1889, later gaining city status in 1940.
