Shimotsuga district, Administrative district in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan
Shimotsuga district spans across 138 square kilometers of land and maintains two principal towns, Mibu and Nogi, within its boundaries.
The district emerged through administrative reforms in 1878, later incorporating Samukawa District in 1889 to establish its current territorial structure.
The district functions as a local governance center in Tochigi Prefecture, coordinating administrative services for its 83,304 residents across multiple municipalities.
Located at coordinates 36°21′32″N and 139°39′04″E, the district provides essential municipal services through its administrative offices in Mibu and Nogi.
The district underwent significant territorial changes in 2010 when three towns - Fujioka, Ohira, and Tsuga - transferred to become part of Tochigi City.
