二ツ屋宿 (廃村) 福井県南条郡南越前町今庄 Futatsuya, Abandoned Village in Imajo, Minami Echizen, Fukui [4K Binaural]
This video captures a walk in Futatsuya Juku (二ツ屋宿), an abandoned post town deep in the mountains of Minami Echizen, Fukui Prefecture, filmed in June 2025.
Futatsuya lies along the historic Hokuriku Kaidō (北陸街道), a major Edo-period travel route connecting Kyoto to the Hokuriku region. The village once served as a checkpoint (sekisho) controlling travel through this mountainous passage and likely flourished due to its strategic location. Over time, as road networks changed and transportation modernized, the village became isolated and eventually depopulated.
Today, Futatsuya is quietly disappearing into the forest. Some stone walls, remnants of old houses, and a solemn atmosphere remain, offering a glimpse into the region’s forgotten past.
この映像では、福井県南越前町今庄地区にある廃村「二ツ屋（ふたつや）」を、バイノーラル音声と4K映像で記録しています（2025年6月撮影）。
二ツ屋は、江戸時代の主要な街道「北陸街道」沿いに位置し、かつては旅人の往来を取り締まる関所（二ツ屋関所）が置かれていた歴史ある場所です。街道の交通が変化し、近代以降は徐々に人が離れていき、今では深い山中にひっそりと廃村として残っています。
現在、村には石垣や家屋の痕跡がわずかに残されており、かつての人々の暮らしと歴史の気配を静かに伝えています。
