Former Tokaido Kuwana Kyuto Kaido Kuwana

Kuwana is the 42nd post town on Tokaido that connects Edo to Kyoto.
The 41st inn towns, Miya and Kuwana, were the only two inn towns in Tokaido that were on the sea, and were called "Shichiri-no-watari" because of the distance of 7 ri (7 miles). Boats came and went very actively, and as an inn town, it was the second busiest after Miya-juku in Tokaido.

You can view and edit the sightseeing route (My Plan on My Page) that will take you around the selected spots.
