Saisawa

Saisawa [春澤; さいさわ] is a city located in eastern Ganyama Prefecture. As of 2020, it had roughly 64,000 residents, making it the third-largest city in the prefecture by population.
Saisawa is located on the eastern coast of Ganyama, looking out over Saisawa Harbour. Its area includes Mount Kanabi and its foothills, along with Lake Shibun and the Shimi and Mage Rivers in its southern ward. Only around three-quarters of Saisawa's total area is inhabited, and although it is a coastal settlement, a fishing industry never developed due to its location behind the Haō Mountains.
Saisawa's economy is based mostly on light manufacture and agriculture, although mining was also once a lucrative part of the local industry. Coal and iron mines were once commonly found in the city's eastern sector, however, only one mine remains open today and is largely inactive. Efforts to produce enewable energy in Saisawa have proved successful, with a large number of wind turbines standing in the city's northern ward.
