[[File:Kusatsu-junction.jpg|right|thumb|320px|Replica, at the National Museum of Japanese History, of a lantern erected at Kusatsu in [[1816]]. The inscription reads, roughly, "To the left, the [[Nakasendo|Nakasendô]] and [[Mino Road]]; to the right, the [[Tokaido|Tôkaidô]] and the road to [[Ise]]"]]
*''Japanese'': 草津宿 ''(Kusatsu-juku)''
Kusatsu was the third-to-last [[shukuba|post-station]] on both the [[Tokaido|Tôkaidô]] and [[Nakasendo|Nakasendô]] [[Highways]] during the [[Edo period|early modern period]], and was one of the few places where the two highways met or intersected.
