Tsu, capital, Mie ken (prefecture), Honshu, Japan. It lies along the mouth of the Ano River, facing Ise Bay.

A modern cotton mill established in Tsu in 1898 was followed after World War II by factories producing electrical machines, glass, and appliances. During the 1960s shipbuilding facilities were expanded. Rice and wheat are produced in the surrounding area.
