Asahi, Aichi

Asahi (旭町, Asahi-chō) was a town located in Higashikamo District, north-central Aichi Prefecture, Japan.

Asahi Village was created in 1906 through the merger of four small hamlets.

It was elevated to town status on 1967.

On April 1, 2005, Asahi, along with the town of Fujioka, the village of Obara (both from Nishikamo District), the towns of Asuke and Inabu, and the village of Shimoyama (all from Higashikamo District), was merged into the expanded city of Toyota,[1][2] and has ceased to exist as an independent municipality.
