The background
In Nara's time, you will be the domain of Mr. Kuryu of Sun. A Shinto shrine was built by the Long-term Good Family of Sun. When Mr. Kimimiya opens up in the late days of peace, it comes under his control, but it often becomes the scene of a struggle with Mr. Xinji. In the time of the War, I was a member of the Miyagi Tajitaka family, who built the castle of Tajita, but when it was converted to the Fukumoto Siyaji period, I lost it. It is considered a common name from the late days of the Peace period to the Edo period. It was originally the name of Shinichi Shinichiro-Yo-yo, but I also refer to it as "The Origin of the City of Seo-Yo-yu" (from the name of Seo-Yung-ro-Yung).
It's the construction of Nikkkagio
Tokujirō-juku at first consisted only of Kami-Tokujirō-juku, but the post town came to comprise three stations — Kami-Tokujirō-juku, Naka-Tokujirō-juku and Shimo-Tokujirō-juku — and together with Monzen, Tanaka and Nishine villages along the old road (the former Nikkō Kaidō) they were known as the Tokujirō Six Townships (Tokujirō Rokugō). The kōsatsuba (official notice board) stood in Naka-Tokujirō-juku. The area was at first part of Utsunomiya Domain, but from 1851 (Kaei 4) it became territory administered by a shogunal deputy (daikan).
Korean embassies (Chōsen tsūshinshi) came to Nikkō for the shogun's shrine pilgrimage (Nikkō shasan) three times, and it was customary for them to take lunch at Tokujirō-juku on the fourth day out of Edo. On the return journey, however, they made a forced march — passing through Tokujirō on the way from Imaichi-juku, lunching at Utsunomiya-juku and staying the night at Oyama-juku — so in the end they took lunch at Tokujirō only on the last occasion (1655, Meireki 1). The embassy's main party numbered some 200 to 300 men, and with the Japanese escorts, guides and attendants added, the procession grew to more than 1,000 people. Ryukyu embassies also came to Nikkō three times, but no record of their itinerary survives; it is known, however, that the round trip between Edo and Nikkō took nine days, so their route is presumed to have been the same as that of the Korean embassies.
He's the heir to the human horse
At the beginning of Edo period's third year (in 1617), there was only a man on top of the Tokujiraku, which, of course, was reserved by the petition of Tokuyakka and the lower Tokuyuraku, was followed by Tokuyakka, and Tokuyuraku, among other things. In the middle of January, three minutes, and the upper part of January, the middle half is the most crowded, the most experienced, and the lower part is the horseman.
Port town size
According to the "Sundo-Sundo-Sundo's Office, " the Tokuyurajunka's honjen was placed in two houses, a kanjin one, a waki-honjin three, a dawki-honjin one, 72-honjin one, the largest station on the way to the sun. The number of families in the house was 168 and the population was 653.
Edo finality
Tokujirajuku is acquired at the end of Edo, and is under the jurisdiction of the Yaoka Control. (In this age, Nimeajiro and Yoshiyaki Yuo have been able to carry on the healing business in Nishihara, and the rice paddies have been set up in Tada, and the waters of the treasure tree are now being brought to the treasure building.)
