it was along the yoshiigawa bank.

From the instruction manual, the Yoshii River flowed through the inland area of Mimasaka and Bizen during the Edo period, and it seems that there was a lot of traffic of goods through this river. However, the Yoshii River you see now feels shallow to sail by boat.

Ferry transportation was very popular as a means of transportation.
