This area faces the Edogawa River in the eastern part of Katsushika Ward, Tokyo. It is a lowland area between the Edogawa and Nakagawa rivers, and was once called Shimamata because of the islands scattered around the inlet. It was later written as Shibamata or Shibamata, and became known as a temple town for Daikyo-ji Temple (Shibamata Taishakuten), which was founded in 1629 (Kan'ei 6). In addition to Taishakuten, the area is also known for Shibamata Hachimansha Shrine, Yagiri no Watashi Ferry, and river fish cuisine. The area is served by the Keisei Electric Railway Kanamachi Line, which starts at Kanamachi Station on the JR Joban Line, and the Hokuso Railway Hokuso Line.
