User:Ospalh/Hiragana and katakana place names

The hiragana cities of Japan are cities whose names are written in hiragana rather than kanji. Traditionally, all Japanese place names were written using kanji. However, some recently founded cities such as Tsukuba in Ibaraki Prefecture have names which are written in hiragana only. The number is growing rapidly, and is set to rise to forty-five by the end of March 2006.
