Overview

Since then, Sakura has taken over again. It has been expanded north of the Pre-Edo Station on the fourth current national road. It is made up of downtown, downtown, and upper-town. According to Japan's Daily Yomiuri of Sundo, which was published in 1843, one of the honjeins was placed, one of the wichi-honjeins was set up, 43 of them were on a journey. The number of families in the house was 165 and the population was 767. The name "Okryi" comes from a legend that there is a pond of water called the Little Gold well nearby and that "the gold came out of the pond which never died when I was a kid." This Ii gave rise to the name "Khiimura" and then became "Kyoimura." (From The Instruments of the Sun, which is thought to be created about 14-1843.) It is an old post town from before Edo period, and in the 16th century there was a formation of a colony and it was called the "Goldi Manjid" (such as "The Golden Palace").

ichirizuka: Edo During the rule-off period, the line between Shinda and Koichiwei was paralleled to the east side of the old street to open a new road, leaving the two east and west hills almost bare. The Nikkō Kaidō ichirizuka is the only country history specified. It's rounded by age change, but it's essentially a rectangle of a rectangle.

Officially, it's called "The temple of Toshiyama Tokuyama." I'm told it was founded by Shinda and Shinda. In the Edo period Sun Comeback, a general's resting place can be set up on the border. Oyama-sama was an alternative facility in a small village that was broken down in the year 1682. The General's Consulate and its associated facilities were maintained by the Order, but the buildings of other temples were repaired so as not to be difficult to see. Edo period has been given 20 stones rather than the generals and Tokugawas. The building then lost most of it in the fire of Meiji's year 1868, but the hall and the bell tower are still in existence.

The village where I lived

In each post town, there was a constant need for human horses to be used to change admissions and to carry public personnel and goods, but neighboring villages were assigned to help. According to the Book of Koichi Koichi Koichi, Koichi Yoichi Village was a village of more than 17 villages.

Traffic

Next stop I'm going to have to take care of it.
