Naihana

Naihana [变花; ないはな] is a city located in lower-eastern Ganyama Prefecture. As of 2020, it had a population of around 12,000. 
Naihana borders Heisai Prefecture to the south and looks out over Ganshi Bay to the east. It experiences some of the heaviest and most frequent rainfall in the prefecture, which contributes to the large-scale production of rice around the city's outskirts. Historically Naihana was originally adjoined to the city of Saisawa, and the two are still considered 'sisters'. Naihana's terrain is mostly mountainous and rocky, and two major peaks are included within the city limits, Mount Uyama and Mount Tsuchi. 
The economy of Naihana is based on agriculture and light manufacture. Rice is the primary exported crop. Industries are centered around food processing, with rice wine brewing and the production of fermented/pickled foods also predominant.
Naihana is well-known prefecturally for its Nō period excavation site, around which many ancient artefacts were discovered. On a national level it is also known as the birthplace of the 19th-century writer Koe Bōken.
