Tenpaku Ward: Horocho - Tenpaku River
Horocho has served as a riverside residential neighbourhood in Nagoya’s Tenpaku Ward since the ward was created in 1975. The Tenpaku River runs through this urban part of Nagoya toward Ise Bay, its engineered banks, broad embankments, paths and gravel bars defining the river corridor. Around Horocho, the floodplain creates a clear break between low-rise housing, local streets and the wider metropolitan area. The river channel is an important element of flood management while also providing open space within Nagoya’s built-up southern districts.
