• Japan
Most large cities in Japan are cities designated by government ordinance. Some regionally important cities are designated as core cities.
Tokyo is not included on this list, as the city of Tokyo ceased to exist on July 1, 1943. Tokyo now exists as a special "metropolis" prefecture (都 to), with 23 "special" wards (with the same status of city) making up the former boundaries of the former city in the eastern half of the prefecture.
