Hachiji is a city located in Tokyo, Japan, about 40 kilometers west of the center of the special wards of Tokyo. Although Hachiji only gained city status on September 1, 1917, it has been an important junction point and post-town along the Ksh Highway, the main road that connected the historical Edo (today’s Tokyo) with Western Japan since medieval times, especially during the Edo period. For a short period of time, a castle, Hachiji Castle existed in the area. It was built in 1584 by Hj Ujiteru , but was soon destroyed in 1590 during General Toyotomi Hideyoshi’s attempt to gain control over all of Japan. During the Meiji period, Hachiji prospered as an important location for the production of silk and silk textiles. The industry faded away, however, in the 1960s. Today, Hachiji mainly serves as a commuter town for people working in Tokyo, and as a location for many large colleges and universities.
