Haboro, Coastal town in Rumoi Subprefecture, Japan
Haboro sits alongside the Sea of Japan, surrounded by the Teshio Mountains and includes two inhabited islands, Yagishiri and Teuri.
The town experienced substantial growth from 1940 to 1970 due to coal mining operations, reaching a peak population of 28,574 residents.
The name originates from the Ainu language, referring to either 'hapuru' for soft sound or 'haporopetsu' for basin of a large river.
Transportation to Haboro requires using National Route 232 by car or taking one of three daily bus services from neighboring cities.
Mount Pisshiri rises to 1,032 meters within the town boundaries, creating a natural barrier between the coastal areas and inland regions.
