🇯🇵 Cycling Sabae, Fukui: Rekishi no Michi (Heritage Street) 鯖江歴史街道 | Mar 2025 [4K]
This video follows the Rekishi no Michi (歴史の道 meaning Heritage Street) in Sabae City (鯖江), cycling from south to north. This route is part of the old Hokurikudō (Hokkoku Kaidō, 北国街道), an important historical road that once connected Kyoto to the Hokuriku region. During the Edo period, it was a major route for daimyo processions, merchants, and travelers, with many post towns developing along the way.
Along the old road, there are numerous historical buildings, including temples and shrines, reflecting the deep cultural heritage of the area. The ride starts from Sabae Station and follows the former highway. Originally, the video was intended to continue to Fukui Station, but due to technical issues, the recording stopped just after entering Fukui City.
