■Things to see

  The view of Mt. Fuji across the ocean from the pass is amazing. The pass was extremely challenging such that even the parents could not look back to check on the children. In order to secure a safe passage through here, various routes have been designed across history.
  The envoys from Korea traveled through this pass during their visits when the Shogun position changed.
• Koike-Tei (House of a headman of Tokaido)(HISTORIC BUILDING)
  The house, built in the 19th century, has been remodeled and is serving as a resting spot for the tourists.
