Konan, Industrial city in Aichi Prefecture, Japan

Konan is an industrial city in Aichi Prefecture situated on flat alluvial land in the northern Nobi Plain. The city spreads across this terrain south of the Kiso River as a manufacturing hub.

The city formed in 1954 when three towns and one village merged into a new municipality. This founding set the stage for industrial development in the region.

The Fuji Matsuri festival brings together residents and visitors through customs passed down over generations. This celebration shows how the community values traditional practices.

The Meitetsu Inuyama railway line connects Konan to nearby cities with regular service. National Route 155 provides another transportation option for getting around the area.

The city maintains partnerships with communities in Burkina Faso and the Federated States of Micronesia. These connections reflect a commitment to global exchange beyond the local region.
