We are promoting the “Edo Kaido Project,” which promotes wide-area tourism that explores attractive tourist resources such as culture. In order to widely inform the general public about the charms along the Edo Kaido, we will be holding an event on November 16th (Sat) and 17th (Sun), 2020 at Nihonbashi, the starting point of the Edo Kaido (Edo Sakuradori Underground Walkway). We will be holding a regional PR product exhibition “Edo Kaido Wandering Journey ~Local specialties
collected!~”. This event is a kick-off event sponsored by the Kanto Transport Bureau to begin promoting the entire Edo Kaido project to the general public. In order to disseminate the appeal of road tourism, we will implement the following content. 1. Exhibition and sale of local products (15 booths) 2. Experience of traditions and culture inherited by the region (creating small bonsai) 3. Stage to convey the charm of the region (iaido performance, shamisen live performance, etc.) 4. Edo period Exhibition of panels introducing the charm of the highway
