Hosu District, Administrative district in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan
Hosu District spans across 456 square kilometers of land in Ishikawa Prefecture, containing the towns of Anamizu and Noto within its boundaries.
The district emerged on March 1, 2005, through the consolidation of territories from former Fugeshi and Suzu districts, incorporating their respective kanji characters in its name.
The district maintains traditional agricultural practices through seasonal celebrations where local farmers display their harvests and share cultivation techniques with younger generations.
Visitors can reach the district via regional roads connecting to major transportation hubs in Ishikawa Prefecture, with regular bus services operating between towns.
The name Hosu combines two kanji characters: 鳳 from Fugeshi district and 珠 from Suzu district, representing the unified identity of these merged territories.
