History

This Edo period post town flourished along the Nakasendō because it also connected with Kurihangaidō (九里半街道),[2] a trade road that connected the northwestern shores of Lake Biwa with Obama.[3] Along with Tarui-juku, it was the first post town of the Five Routes of Edo to be serviced by cars.[2]

In 1843, the post station had 1,784 residents and 464 buildings. Among the buildings, there was one honjin, two sub-honjin, and 13 hatago.

gollark: Obviously we need to "borrow" some capacity from a silicon fab somewhere somehow and make Krist ASICs.
gollark: I mean, maybe you could actually, but that would only work for cases when it *exactly* matches some input and it might be slow.
