Kuwana-juku is the 42nd post of the 53rd Tōkaidō. It was also the castle town of Kuwana Domain, and was a large inn in the late Edo period, with two main houses, four side-by-side, and 120 bar-go houses. It was connected to Atsuta-juku, where the Atsuta Shrine is located, by a seaway, Shichiri, on Ise Bay, and the Tōfuna at Kuwana was also bustling as an entrance to the Ise Shrine. At present, the Torii and night lights of Ise Shrine Ichigami stand at the site of the Watari of Shichiri, and nearby, the Banryū-kō, which celebrates the restored guardian deity of the voyage, and the Ōtsuka-honkami, which operates as an inn, remain. If you wander along the outer moat of Kuwana Castle (Kuhua Park) and the Tokaido through the city from the site of Shichiri's Watari, you can feel the appearance of the post-stop town on the "History-Talking Park", the signpost, Yata-position, etc.
