Kita-ku, Administrative ward in Saitama, Japan.
Kita-ku extends over 16.86 square kilometers in the northwestern section of Saitama, containing residential neighborhoods and commercial districts alongside the Kōnuma River.
The ward emerged in 2003 when Saitama received its designated city status, incorporating the former villages of Ōsato, Nisshin, and Miyahara from the Kitaadachi District.
The Railway Museum at the border of Kita-ku presents extensive collections of trains and transportation artifacts, documenting Japan's railway development through generations.
The ward connects to major transportation networks through JR East lines at Miyahara, Toro, and Nisshin stations, plus the Saitama New Urban Transit system.
The headquarters of automotive manufacturer Calsonic Kansei operates from Kita-ku, influencing the industrial landscape of this Saitama district.
