Small Historical Footprints on the Bank of the Kiso River
The small ferry across the Kiso River stands quietly, but there you can feel the long history. The remains of Komazuka Ferry Crossing was the starting point of the Komazuka Highway leading to the Takehana area, and it was a ferry crossing site developed in the Edo period.
Access to Feel the History
The remains of Komazuka Ferry Crossing is located in a quiet residential area slightly away from the center of Hashima City, Gifu Prefecture. It is easily accessible, about a 20-minute walk from the nearest station. It is recommended to stroll while enjoying the scenery along the Kiso River.
Landscape Where the Past and Present Intersect
The remains of the crossing indicates the location where there was once a dock. The remaining cobblestones along the bank tell the tale. In the nearby Tomita area on the opposite bank, the milestone along the old highway remains, creating a landscape that transcends time.
Opportunity to Learn About Local History
By visiting this small historic site, you can touch the history and culture that has been deeply embedded by the local people. It would be interesting to imagine the lives of the people in a serene atmosphere.
It has a charm different from a tourist attraction and is a spot where you can enjoy a little exploration. Why not take a leisurely stroll, imagining the small footprints of history?

This is the ruins of Komazuka Ferry on the Kisogawa River in Hashima City. About a 4-minute walk west from here is the old Komazuka Kaido. If you walk further west, the old road runs to Ekira Park in Ekira-cho, Hashima City. There is a part of the road that is cut off, and there is a stone monument in the south of Ekira Park.The stone monument says Isemichi.

This ferry was constructed during the Edo period. It can be said to be the starting point of the Komazuka Kaido road heading towards Takehana. Once you cross the river, you will be connected to Minoji on the opposite bank and the Tomita milestone.
