Ōtsu (大津市?) è il capoluogo della prefettura di Shiga, in Giappone. Nel giugno del 2010 la città aveva una popolazione stimata in 335.014 abitanti, con una densità di 880,49 abitanti per chilometro quadrato distribuiti su una superficie di 374,06 chilometri quadrati. Nel VII secolo fu per cinque anni la capitale imperiale. Al centro della prefettura si trova il lago Biwa, il più grande del Giappone, molto significativo per l'industria del turismo. Alcuni degli angoli più suggestivi cittadini sono compresi negli otto panorami di Omi, immortalati negli ukiyo-e del paesaggista giapponese Hiroshige Utagawa. La zona di Otsu è famosa anche per le sue industrie tessili.
