Sakai

Sakai (堺市 Sakai-shi) is a city located in Osaka Prefecture, Japan on the edge of Osaka Bay at the mouth of the Yamato River. It has been one of the largest and most important seaports of Japan since the Medieval era.

Following the February 2005 annexation of the town of Mihara (from Minamikawachi District), the city has grown further and is now the fourteenth most populous city in Japan, with 833,414 residents as of May 1, 2007.

The current city was legally founded on April 1, 1889 according to the laws of Imperial Japan. Sakai became a designated city in April 2006 giving it a greater measure of self-determination in governmental affairs. It is divided into seven districts.

Photo of an aerial shot of Sakai (堺市), a city in Osaka Prefecture, Japan. It has been one of the largest and most important seaports of Japan since the medieval era. The large keyhole-shaped structures in this picture are so-called Kofun (古墳), megalithic tombs or tumuli, constructed between the early 3rd century and early 7th century. They gave their name to the Kofun period (middle 3rd century - early-middle 6th century). Most of the Kofun have a keyhole-shaped mound (zenpo-koenfun (前方後円墳)), unique to ancient Japan. Sakai 2
