*''Japanese'': 市来 ''(ichiki)''

Ichiki is a port-town in [[Kagoshima prefecture]], which historically was a significant port for [[Satsuma han]].

Located at the mouth of the Yafusa River, it was a significant port for trade with Korea, China, and the [[Ryukyu Islands]]. Numerous significant personages came through Ichiki at one time or another as well. [[Francis Xavier]] visited [[Ichiki castle]] at one time, and in [[1575]] when [[Shimazu Toshihisa]] departed for [[Kyoto]], he departed from Ichiki. [[Konoe Sakihisa]] arrived at Ichiki the following year when coming to pay a formal visit to [[Kagoshima]].
