Kanagawa-juku History Path
Last update date December 19, 2023
"Kanagawa-juku History Road" is a historical promenade where guide panels are set up at key points that preserve history and legends, as well as road construction and landscape maintenance so that visitors can enjoy visiting the roots of Kanagawa Ward.
Tokaido Kami Nagawa-juku
Kanagawa-juku is one of the fifty-three Tokaido Road. This place name is the origin of the name of the prefecture and the name of the ward.
This was also the parent body of the modern city of Yokohama.
However, due to the Great Kanto Earthquake and World War II, many of its historical heritage was lost.
As a result, fewer people even locals know where the Tokaido passed and what the post town was like.
At present, most of the post town has been lost, but you can find the features of those days on the slopes of Daimachi.
