Gotō Islands

The are Japanese islands in the East China Sea, off the western coast of Kyūshū. They are part of Nagasaki Prefecture.〔''Teikoku's Complete Atlas of Japan'', Teikoku-Shoin Co., Ltd., ISBN 4-8071-0004-1.〕
== Geography ==
There are 140 islands, including five main ones: , , , , and .
The group of islands runs approximately end-to-end; its center is at .
To the north is Tsushima Island in the Tsushima Strait and to the east is Kyūshū and the rest of Nagasaki Prefecture. It is about 100 km from the port of Nagasaki. The Tsushima Current (a branch of the Kuroshio) passes around the islands.
The southern of the two principal islands, Fukue, measures approximately 25 km north-to-south by 25 km east-to-west; the northern, Nakadori Island, measures approximately 40 km north-to-south by 20 km east-to-west at its widest point. Most of Nakadori Island, however, is quite narrow, measuring less than 6 km wide for much of its length. Some dome-shaped hills command the old castletown of Fukue. The islands are highly cultivated; deer and other game abound, and trout are plentiful in the mountain streams.
As a result of a merger on August 1, 2004, the city of Gotō was established. It occupies Fukue, Hisaka, and Naru islands, and seven inhabited ones. The town of Shin-Kamigotō, itself the product of a simultaneous, separate merger in 2004, occupies Nakadōri and Wakamatsu islands, two of the five main islands of the Gotō archipelago, in addition to the small inhabited islands of Arifuku, Kashiragashima, Hinoshima, Ryōzegaura, and Kirinoko and a great number of uninhabited islets.
The small island of Kabajima is east of Hisaka Island and northeast of Fukue Island.〔( Map of Goto Islands showing Kabashima at env.go.jap ); retrieved 2013-4-30.〕 It belongs to Gotō City.
