The city writes that ri-marker mounds were set on both sides of a highway every ri (about 4 km), with an enoki (hackberry) tree planted on top. Tokaido mounds were built in 1604 (Keicho 9) on Tokugawa Ieyasu's order, but most vanished after the Meiji era as roads were widened; at Ano, both mounds remain.
02 ／ Kamakura Road
Futamurayama, 71.8 m high, was a scenic spot praised in poems as an utamakura. The city gives the Gosen Wakashu, compiled in 951, as the oldest record of travelers there. The mountain path that keeps traces of the old road runs down from northwest of the Jizo hall near the summit toward Nigori-ike Pond.
03 ／ Academy
Ito Ryoson, a Confucian scholar and Chinese-style poet, served as headman of Kutsukake Nakajima village. A 1855 (Ansei 2) survey is said to have counted 4 teachers and 250 male pupils. In 1853 (Kaei 6), while he was alive, his students put up the Ito Sensei no Hi stele on Futamurayama.
