Asago (朝来市, Asago-shi) is a city located in northern Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan.

The area of Asago was in ancient Tajima Province and is the location of many burial mounds from the Kofun period.

These include the Chasuriyama Kofun in Wadayama, one of the largest enpun (円墳)-style elliptical burial mounds in the Kansai region.

Following the establishment of the Tokugawa shogunate, the area was mostly tenryō territory under direct control of the shogunate due to the importance of the silver mine, with some small areas undertone control of Toyooka Domain or Izushi Domain.

The town of Ikuno and the villages of Yamaguchi and Akagawa were created with the establishment of the modern municipalities on April 1, 1889.

Asago has a mayor-council form of government with a directly elected mayor and a unicameral city council of 18 members.

In terms of national politics, the city is part of Hyōgo 5th district of the lower house of the Diet of Japan.
