Inotani

Japanese: 猪谷 - いのたに
Inotani
This is an old village area in the central-southern part of Toyama City, in central Toyama Prefecture. In 1889 it merged with eight neighboring villages to form Hosoiri Village, and in 2005 it merged with Toyama City, Osawano Town, Oyama Town, Yao Town, Funachu Town, and Yamada Village to form Toyama City. A checkpoint was established in the Edo period as a strategic point on the Hida Kaido border with Etsu. Since the Taisho period, the area has developed into the central area of ​​the Jinzu River valley with the development of power sources along the Jinzu River, the opening of the Takayama Main Line, the connection with the JNR Kamioka Line, and the construction of National Route 41. Nearby are the Niji Falls over the Igaya River, the remains of the basket ferry where the old road crossed the Miya River, and the remains of Igaya Barrier. In addition, the anticline and syncline of Igaya, caused by the folding of the strata, are a national natural monument.
