Seika, Suburban town in Soraku District, Japan

Seika is a town in southwestern Kyoto Prefecture that sits between the Kizu River and Keihanna Hills. The landscape combines open areas with scattered development, mixing rural character and modern growth.

Seika formed in 1951 through the merger of settlements that had previously been consolidated in 1931. This combination shaped how the town developed in the decades that followed.

Seika maintains strong connections with Norman, United States, through a municipal partnership established in 2005 that promotes international cultural exchanges.

The town connects well to major centers through JR and Kintetsu railway lines serving the area. A nearby expressway provides direct access for those traveling to surrounding regions.

Seika hosts research facilities of major technology companies within the broader science city development. Alongside these operations, traditional strawberry farming continues across the land, creating an unusual mix of industrial and agricultural life.
