Narashino

Narashino occupies a low, built-up strip between the Shimōsa Plateau and Tokyo Bay in northwestern Chiba Prefecture. Although closely woven into the Greater Tokyo rail corridor, the city reaches the bay at Yatsu Higata, a tidal flat designated as a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance. The wetland is a regular resting and feeding place for migratory shorebirds, contrasting with the dense residential districts around Tsudanuma. Narashino’s name is connected with military exercises held here during the Meiji era, a reminder of the area’s earlier role.
