The Nakamura River (中村川, Nakamura-gawa) is a river that flows from Minami-ku to Naka-ku in Yokohama, Kanagawa, Japan. Until the early Edo period, the lowland between the Nakamura River and the main stream of the Ōoka River was a bell-shaped cove that connects to the sea near what is now Sakuragicho, and was then reclaimed to become Yoshida Nitta. The Nakamura River (upstream except the Hori River) is a river created at the southern end of Yoshida Nitta. It was connected to several rivers in Shindenuchi, but these rivers were reclaimed from the Meiji era to the postwar period, leaving only the Nakamura River. | ||||||
