Ancient road leading to Hida Takayama.
Hida Kaido is the general name for the road leading to Hida Takayama. The road extends from three post towns; Ota-juku, Nakatsugawa-juku, and Fukushima-juku to Takayama. In particular, the road extending to Kiso was also called the “Kamakura-michi (road)” because it was the road leading to Kamakura from Takayama.
