Tsushima Province - Districts

Districts

Throughout history, Tsushima Province consisted of two districts:

  • Kamiagata (上県)
  • Shimoagata (下県)

The capital of Tsushima province was located at Izuhara. In the modern local municipality system, they were divided into Kamiagata and Shimoagata districts respectively, and were subsequently merged into the city of Tsushima today.

Famous quotes containing the word districts:

    Cities need old buildings so badly it is probably impossible for vigorous streets and districts to grow without them.... for really new ideas of any kind—no matter how ultimately profitable or otherwise successful some of them might prove to be—there is no leeway for such chancy trial, error and experimentation in the high-overhead economy of new construction. Old ideas can sometimes use new buildings. New ideas must use old buildings.
    Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
