Kakegawa-juku

It is located in what is now the city of Kakegawa, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan.

It was famous because Yamauchi Kazutoyo rebuilt the area and lived there himself.

It also served as a post station along a salt road that ran through Shinano Province between the modern-day cities of Makinohara and Hamamatsu.

The classic ukiyo-e print by Andō Hiroshige (Hōeidō edition) from 1831–1834 depicts travelers crossing a trestle-bridge.

In the background, peasants are planting rice and in the distance, Mount Akiba is shown in the mists.
