Komae

This compact city on the Tama River in western Tokyo is the smallest administrative city in the metropolis by both area and population, with the river and surrounding greenery giving it a noticeably more natural character than much of the capital. A short train ride from central Tokyo, Komae functions largely as a residential suburb but draws day visitors to its riverside setting.
