Daiban

Daiban [大宽; だいばん] is a city located in central Heisai Prefecture. As of 2020, it had a population of around 16,000. 
Daiban was established on the floodplain of the Kanakoro River, and has traditionally specialised in rice farming, cattle rearing and the breeding of horses, the latter of which is perhaps the city's biggest claim-to-fame. Daiban horses [daiban tama] are recognised across Kanton for their pedigree breeding and good genes, and can be sold for very high prices. The city is also known for its numerous limestone cave systems, known as the Daiban Kurorai, the largest of these being the Mizukuro cavern. 
Daiban was originally merged with the adjacent town of Kabushima under the name Haba, but in 1870 the two municipalities were separated for further economic growth.
