Sakae Ward, Yokohama City, is located in the southern part of the city and has close ties to Kamakura. Numerous factories are located in the lowlands on the west bank of the Kashio River. The hills leading to the Miura Peninsula are home to housing complexes and forest parks, allowing residents to enjoy the abundant nature. Residential areas account for approximately 60% of the ward's land area, making the area relatively forested. Transportation is also convenient, with the JR Negishi Line and Tokaido Main Line providing excellent access. Tourist attractions include the Itachi River Promenade and cherry blossom-lined streets, the Taya Cave, and Yokohama Nature Observation Forest. Yokohama Nature Observation Forest offers four observation courses where you can observe seasonal insects, animals, and wild birds.
