Miura district, Administrative district in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan
The Miura district spans across 17.06 square kilometers of land in central Kanagawa Prefecture, maintaining a population density of 1,900 residents per square kilometer.
Following the cadastral reform of 1878, the Miura district became an official administrative division, encompassing three towns and twelve villages across the Miura Peninsula.
The district forms part of the ancient Sagami Province territory, where the influential Miura clan established their dominion during the late Heian period.
The district currently contains only the town of Hayama, as other municipalities including Yokosuka, Zushi, and Miura have separated into independent cities.
The district experienced substantial territorial changes when Yokosuka expanded in 1943, absorbing several towns including Uraga, Zushi, Nagai, and Takeyama.
