A picture of the history of Kanagawa-juku

Tokaido Shin Nagawa-juku

Kanagawa-juku, one of the 53rd Tokaido. This place name is the origin of the name of the prefecture or the name of the ward.
This was also the mother of the modern city of Yokohama.
However, due to the Great Kanto Earthquake and World War II, many historical heritage sites have been lost.
As a result, fewer locals know where the Tokaido passed and what the post town looked like.
At present, most of the things from the post town have been lost, but you can find the features of the time on the slopes of Daimachi.
