Minoji

The Minoji (美濃路, Mino Road) was a 60 km (37 mi) highway in Japan during the Edo period.

Fukushima Masanori, the leader of the eastern armies, traveled the Minoji from Okoshi (modern-day Ichinomiya) to Mino Province for the battle.

Tokugawa Ieyasu, the victor of the battle, traveled the route afterwards to a hero's welcome.

Including the starting and ending points, there were only nine post stations on the Minoji.

[2] The route was named after Mino Province, which makes up the southern portion of the modern-day Gifu Prefecture.
