was an
old province of Japan. It occupied most of the area that is today
Kanagawa prefecture, but present-day
Yokohama and
Kawasaki, now part of Kanagawa Prefecture, were not in Sagami. Sagami bordered on
Izu,
Kai,
Musashi and
Suruga provinces.
The ancient capital of the province was located near modern Hiratsuka. During the Sengoku period, Sagami's chief castle was at Odawara, although it was generally ruled from its larger neighbor Musashi.
