Kanagawa Ashigarashimo-gun Hakonemachi

"A road through Hakone that during the Edo period was extremely difficult to pass. It was commonly called ""Hakone Hachiri."" With its many steep slopes, it was developed as an official road through the mountains by the shogunate in the early Edo period. Travelers often had to walk through mud up to the shins, so more current stone paving was installed. The stone paving that remains today has been designated a national Historic Site."

At the Hakone Pass it splits into Odawara on the border, Higashizaka on the Hakone side, and Nishizaka on the Mishima side. This part of the old Tokaido Highway has been preserved with its unique natural scenery, rows of cedar trees, stone paving, and other historical features. Come by train, bus, car, or even bicycle, and get around comfortably either walking or riding.

Kanagawa Areas

Kanagawa prefecture acts as an extension of the Tokyo metropolis that spills over into coastal towns, most notably Yokohama city, heavily populated and known for its Chinatown and seaside attractions. Just the right distance for a day trip out of Tokyo, Kanagawa is home to some of Tokyo’s most accessible beaches, including around Kamakura, best known for its Big Buddha. Visitors can also travel a little farther afield for a weekend at Hakone onsen town.
