Kamishihoro, Rural town in Tokachi Subprefecture, Japan
The southern section of Kamishihoro sits on Tokachi Plain, while the northern and central regions extend into the Daisetsu mountains.
The town received its official designation on April 1, 1931, during the systematic development of the Tokachi region in Hokkaido Prefecture.
The town adopted Horon-chan, a fairy hot air balloon mascot in 2008, representing the agricultural products and local identity of Kamishihoro.
Visitors can reach Kamishihoro through 16 daily bus connections from Obihiro, with additional highway bus services connecting to Asahikawa.
The Taushubetsu River Bridge emerges from Lake Nukabira during low water periods in autumn and winter, revealing its complete arch structure.
