User:Matentendo/Ichinomiya (Takamatsu City)

Ichinomiya is a district in the central part of Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture, and is under the jurisdiction of the Takamatsu City Hall Ichinomiya Branch Office. It consists of 5 towns: Nariaicho, Kanotsunocho, Ichinomiyacho, Sanmyocho, and Teraimachi. In the past, the entire area except Terai-cho existed as "Ichinomiya-mura, Kagawa-gun" (Ichinomiyamura), and was incorporated into Takamatsu City on September 30, 1956.

Geography
The district is located in the central part of Takamatsu City and is an almost square district. As of 2010, the population is 15,978 (7,603 men and 8,375 women), and the number of households is 6867. The area is 6.90km2 and the population density is 2294.93 people per square kilometer. In addition to having historical shrines and temples such as the Shikoku Pilgrimage Temple "Ichinomiya Temple" and the "Tamura Shrine" marked by a large torii gate, it has a reputation as a bed town in the center of Takamatsu City. Although it is basically a countryside with wide rice fields, private houses are concentrated around old arterial roads and villages, and housing development has been steadily increasing.

Terrain
The entire area is part of the Takamatsu Plain and the Koto and Gobo rivers flow in the western part of the district, as well as small rivers and irrigation canals.


 * Mountains：None
 * Rivers：Koto, Gobo
 * Lakes: Shinike, Tsujido Pond, Gyoji Pond

The Border of the Koto River
Normally, when there is a large river on the border of a town, a border line is often drawn down the center, but this is not always the case with the Koto River, which is located on the border between the Ichinomiya district and the Enza and Danshi districts. Nariai-cho, which has a boundary ajdacent to the Danshi district, includes the area on the right bank of the Koto River in the town area, and Enza-cho in the Enza district includes the area on the left bank.

This is because the Koto River was once divided into east and west from this area, and it is believed that both were parts of the sandbar located between the tributary (current main stream) and the main stream. Near the border with Enza-cho, it was a part that had just branched off, and almost the entire area of Nariai-cho was located on the right bank of the main stream. For this reason, the area of Nariai-cho is referred to as "Nariai-go" along with the area of Danshi-cho in "Wamyō Ruijushō" written by Minamoto no Shitagō during the Jōhei era.
