Miyamae-ku, Kawasaki
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Miyamae-ku is a ward of Kawasaki, Japan, which was separated from Takatsu-ku in 1982. It has an area of 18.60km², and a population of 214,347 in 83,719 households (as of 2008-05-01). Approximately 2,500 residents are not Japanese citizens.
The ward flower is the cosmos, the ward tree is the sakura; both were adopted in 1999. In 1995, the ward adopted a motto which could be translated as "We like people; we like nature; we like our town".
