Shintotsukawa, Agricultural town in Sorachi Subprefecture, Japan
The town spans across 495 square kilometers at the convergence of Ishikari and Sorachi Rivers in central Hokkaido, surrounded by mountain ranges.
In 1889, settlers from Totsukawa in Nara Prefecture relocated to this area following devastating floods, establishing the foundation for the current town.
The municipal mascot Komezo represents a white rice spirit figure that symbolizes the agricultural heritage and rice production traditions of the region.
The local government operates from the town hall at 301-1 Chuo, managing services for approximately 6,787 residents with a density of 14 persons per kilometer.
Two major rivers, the Ishikari and Sorachi, meet in the eastern section of the town, creating a distinctive geographical feature in the region.
