Toyono

Located at the northernmost point of Osaka Prefecture, Toyono spans 34.34 square kilometers with elevations ranging from 300 to 600 meters above sea level.

The area belonged to Settsu Province and operated under direct control of the Tokugawa shogunate during the Edo period before becoming a town in 1977.

The town maintains four elementary schools and two junior high schools that serve the educational needs of local families in the Osaka metropolitan region.

The Nose Electric Railway Myoken Line connects Toyono to surrounding areas, while the Shin-Meishin Expressway provides access to major urban centers.

Toyono gained agricultural recognition as the origin site of the Ginyose chestnut cultivar, discovered from a seedling in 1750.
