Yatsushiro Port (Port Code: JPYAT) is a port situated on the western coast of the central Kyushu and at the mouth of the Kuma River, which is said to be one of the three fastest-flowing rivers in Japan. The port has grown as an important center for international trade along with the distribution of agriculture, forestry, and marine resources, which have been abundant since ancient times. Since the port was modernized during the Meiji period to serve as a marine traffic base, many factories were set up in Yatsushiro.
