Urawa (浦和市, Urawa-shi) was a city located in Saitama Prefecture, Japan.
Since April 1, 2003, the area of former Urawa City has been divided into 4 wards: Urawa-ku, Midori-ku, Minami-ku and Sakura-ku of Saitama City.
The city hall and the prefectural government building are located in Urawa-ku.
In the Edo period, the area that became Urawa flourished as a posting station of the Nakasendō, a highway connecting Edo (modern-day Tokyo) and Kyoto.
