Map of the 'Fifty Three Stations of the Tokaido', or East Sea Highway linking Edo (Tokyo) to Kyoto during the 18th and 19th centuries.

Map of the 'Fifty Three Stations of the Tokaido' between Edo (Tokyo) and Kyoto. The Ti kaidi (East Sea Road) was the most important of the Five Routes of the Edo period, connecting Edo (modern-day Tokyo) to Kyoto in Japan. Unlike the inland and less heavily travelled Nakasendi, the Ti kaidi travelled along the sea coast of eastern Honshu, hence the route's name.
