Yoshida han was an [[Edo period]] [[han|domain]] based at [[Yoshida castle]] in [[Mikawa province]].  

 

From [[1712]] onward it was ruled by [[Matsudaira clan|Matsudaira]] Izu-no-kami, a lord who regularly held the title of ''[[jiju|jijû]]'' and the post of ''[[roju|rôjû]]''. This branch of the Matsudaira clan claimed descent from [[Matsudaira Nobutsuna]], the first Matsudaira clan lord of [[Kawagoe han]]. The first of this lineage to rule at Yoshida was his great-grandson [[Matsudaira Nobutoki]], who was transferred to Yoshida in 1712.

The domain contained within its territory the [[Tokaido|Tôkaidô]] [[post-stations]] of [[Yoshida-juku]] and [[Arai-juku]], along with the associated ''[[sekisho]]'' (checkpoint) at Arai and bay crossing at Imagire.
