Tano district, Administrative district in Gunma Prefecture, Japan.
Description
Tano is an administrative district in Gunma Prefecture comprising the towns of Kanna and Ueno. The area covers a rural expanse with dispersed settlements and lower population density.
History
The district was formed in 1896 through the merger of three earlier administrative units. It underwent boundary changes in the following decades as towns were transferred to neighboring jurisdictions.
Culture
The district manages local administration through two primary towns, Kanna and Ueno, which maintain traditional Japanese municipal governance structures.
Practical
The district blends lowland areas with river valleys, making it easy to explore on foot or by car. Those without private transportation should plan routes carefully, as public transit options are less frequent in rural sections.
Did you know?
The district experienced substantial territorial changes as multiple towns, including Yoshii and Shinmachi, transferred to nearby Takasaki City jurisdiction.
