Hatta, Yamanashi

Hatta (八田村, Hatta-mura) is a former village that was located in the Nakakoma District of Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan. The village was formed in 1956 from the merger of Mikage and Tanooka villages.[1] In 1982 the village opened an elementary school, followed later by a junior high school.[1] In 2001 the village administration started its own cable television station, "Kirameki 29".[1] On 1 April 2003, Hatta merged with five other municipalities within Nakakoma District (the towns of Kōsai, Kushigata, Shirane and Wakakusa and Ashiyasu village) to form the city of Yamanashi.[1]
