Muko River

The Muko River (武庫川, Mukogawa) is a river in the south-eastern part of Hyōgo Prefecture.

The Muko River originates at Mount Shirakami (白髪山, Shirakami-yama) in the Tanba Highland.

It continues into Osaka Plain at Takarazuka, and flows in the Osaka Metropolitan Area to create the borders between Takarazuka and Itami as well as between Nishinomiya and Amagasaki.

This river flows into Osaka Bay, and was used to transport the Kohama style of sake from the Kohama-juku (小浜宿) in Amagasaki Domain of Settsu Province during the Edo period.
