Special Summer Exhibition “Katsuragi in the Edo Period as Seen by Travelers – Recreating from Travelogues”
In the Edo period, Katsuragi was bustling with travelers who came and went along the Takenouchi Kaido and Koya Kaido roads.
In this exhibition, we will show how people traveled in those days and trace their footsteps using travelogues, which describe what they saw and heard on their journeys.
