Aiko District, Administrative district in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan

The district extends through central Kanagawa Prefecture, encompassing the town of Aikawa and the village of Kiyokawa across 105 square kilometers.

Aiko District emerged during the Meiji Restoration period, officially established on July 22, 1878, as part of Japan's modernization efforts.

The district maintains traditional Japanese administrative structures while adapting to contemporary municipal systems within Kanagawa Prefecture's governmental framework.

Travelers can reach the district through multiple transportation options, including railway connections that link to major cities in the Kantō region.

The district's location between the Sagami River and Tanzawa Mountains creates natural boundaries that have influenced its development since ancient times.
