Aki District, Administrative district in Kōchi Prefecture, Japan
The district spreads along the Pacific coast of Shikoku island, containing seven municipalities with a total area of 317 square kilometers.
The district was established on January 4, 1879, during the Meiji period reforms that reorganized Japan's administrative structure into modern prefectures.
Each town in the district maintains its own festivals and ceremonies, with Nahari's traditional architecture showcasing the regional building techniques.
The Tosa Kuroshio Railway connects all seven towns of the district, providing regular service from Tōyō in the north to Geisei in the south.
The Nora Dokei clock tower, constructed in the 1880s through reverse engineering of American technology, stands as a symbol of local innovation.
