18th Station: Ejiri

History

You can see a great view of Mt. Fuji from Ejiri, but as you can see above, Hiroshige did not put it in his Ejiri (The reason is unknown). Ejiri has been a busy port town.

There were no old buildings left in the Ejiri shuku (inn) area, even no signs for them. The name Ejiri is used only for addresses for houses in the area. There are, however, many siteseeing spots near Ejiri, including Tesshu-ji and Miho-no-matsubara.
