Product Description
[About the Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido]
- The Tokaido is one of the five roads established by the Tokugawa Shogunate during the Edo period to unify the country, and is a road that connects Nihonbashi in Tokyo to Sanjo Ohashi in Kyoto for 492km.
- Fifty-three post towns were established, where travelers and goods were sent one after another.
- Utagawa Hiroshige's ukiyo-e paintings of this street scenery are famous and often featured in waka and haiku.
[About Shinagawa-shuku]
- Shinagawa-shuku was the first post town on the Tokaido, located in present-day Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo.
- It was a town that prospered from fishing and shipping, with a concentration of shipping wholesalers and seafood wholesalers, and was a place where many people, such as feudal lords, came and went.
- In the early Edo period, most of the trips were made by samurai for official duties, but gradually, sightseeing trips by ordinary people to visit temples and shrines became popular.
- Many teahouses were lined up, and those who traveled on the Tokaido and those who sent them had a banquet at the teahouses in Shinagawa and regretted their farewells.
- I made a model of a picture depicting the foot of Gotenyama, which is famous for its cherry blossoms.
