Miki

Miki lies along the Mino River in Hyogo Prefecture’s Harima region, where low wooded hills meet the Harima Plain. The river is a tributary of the Kakogawa, one of the prefecture’s principal watercourses. Miki Castle ruins recall a siege of 1578–1580, when Hashiba Hideyoshi fought Bessho Nagaharu during the Sengoku period. The city is also an established centre of Japanese forged hardware: local workshops make carpentry tools, kitchen knives and other implements, and the Miki Hardware Festival keeps that manufacturing tradition in public view. Historic sites and the working tool trade give this inland city a distinct place in the wider Harima area. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Miki and Hyogo Prefecture.
