Itano district, Administrative district in Tokushima Prefecture, Japan.

The district spans 110 square kilometers across northeastern Tokushima Prefecture, containing five municipalities: Matsushige, Kitajima, Aizumi, Itano, and Kamiita.

The district emerged from administrative reforms in 1879, during the Meiji period, when Japan modernized its regional governance structure and redefined territorial boundaries.

The region maintains connections with the Shikoku Pilgrimage route, featuring three significant temples: Dainichi-ji, Jizo-ji, and Konsen-ji within its boundaries.

The district serves as a transportation hub with the Kotoku railway line, Tokushima Airport in Matsushige, and the Takamatsu Expressway connecting major population centers.

Agricultural production in the district focuses on specialized crops, including lotus roots and sweet potatoes, benefiting from the fertile plains near Yoshino River.
