Editing Utazu (section)

==Geography==
Utazu is located in north-central of Kagawa Prefecture on the island of [[Shikoku]], and is bordered by the [[Seto Inland Sea]] to the north, Sakaide City to the east and Marugame City to the west. Its area is the smallest among municipalities in the prefecture. Within the town, the Yoshida area (part of the Bannoshu Rinkai Industrial Park) is a reclaimed land, but because it is separated from the rest of the town by the Kitaura fishing port, it is an enclave which is accessible by land is via the adjacent Sakaide.
