While somewhat misleadingly referred to as Shinagawa City in bureaucratic English translations (it is not a city in its own right, but a subsection of the metropolis of Tokyo), in natural English it is more commonly known simply as Shinagawa, as Shinagawa Ward or (particularly in street addresses) as Shinagawa-ku. The ward is home to nine embassies. As of 2015, the ward has an estimated population of 377,005 and a population density of 16,510 persons per km². The total area is 22.84 km². ==Geography== Shinagawa includes natural uplands and lowlands, as well as reclaimed land. The uplands are the eastern end of the Musashino hills. They include Shiba Shiroganedai north of the Meguro River, Megurodai between the Meguro and Tachiai Rivers, and Ebaradai south of the Tachiai River. The ward lies on Tokyo Bay. Its neighbors on land are all special wards of Tokyo: Kōtō to the east, Minato to the north, Meguro to the west, and Ōta to the south. The ward consists of five districts: *the Shinagawa district, including the former Shinagawa post on the Tōkaidō *the Ōsaki district, formerly a town, stretching from Ōsaki Station to Gotanda and Meguro Stations *the Ebara district, formerly a town of that name *the Ōi district, previously a town *the Yashio district, consisting of reclaimed land, including Higashiyashio on Odaiba. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shinagawa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
