Minamimuro district

Minamimuro district spans 167.94 square kilometers along the Pacific coast, featuring two towns: Mihama and Kiho, with a population density of 122 persons per kilometer.

The district emerged from the division of Muro District in Kii Province on July 22, 1878, creating four separate districts across Mie and Wakayama Prefectures.

The region maintains traditional Japanese administrative structures through its two constituent towns, each contributing to the local governance of Mie Prefecture.

The district houses multiple educational facilities, including public elementary and middle schools, connected by the Kisei Main Line railway system.

The area contains Yoshino-Kumano National Park sections and maintains year-round mikan orange cultivation, supporting local agricultural traditions.
