Kiyokawa

The village spans across 71 square kilometers of land within the Tanzawa Mountains, featuring a distinctive upward triangle shape between Miyagase and Susugaya districts.

Kiyokawa emerged on September 30, 1956, through the consolidation of Susugaya and Miyagase villages, marking a significant administrative reorganization in Kanagawa Prefecture.

The village maintains traditional Japanese agricultural practices through family-owned farms that produce vegetables and flowers throughout the mountainous terrain.

Transportation to Kiyokawa relies on Kanagawa Prefectural Routes 60, 64, 70, and 514, as the village operates without national highway or railway connections.

The Miyagase Dam within Kiyokawa holds one of the largest water storage capacities in the Kanto region, affecting the village's landscape since its completion in 1965.
