Kanagawa-juku

Japanese: 神奈川宿 (Kanagawa-juku)

Kanagawa-juku was one of the 53 stations along the Tôkaidô, early modern Japan's main thoroughfare. In the Meiji period, Kanagawa train station (Kanagawa-eki) was built in the area, on reclaimed land. The station operated from 1872 until 1928, when it was replaced with Yokohama Station, a short distance away.
