Thanks for your comment. I'm glad...Hi Millardi<br /><br />Thanks for your comment. I'm glad you found this blog helpful.<br /><br />I used a Japanese walking map, similar to the map I used when I walked the Nakasendo, which I wrote about here:<br />http://thewalkingfool.blogspot.co.nz/search/label/walking%20map<br />I ordered this by email and had it delivered to a Japanese address.<br /><br />If you search google you will also find various online versions. I am going to use a map I found online when I walk the Niko Kiado later this year.<br /><br />Note that you will not be able to cycle some sections of the original Tokaido, as they are walking tracks only, sometimes with steps. But if you don't mind avoiding these sections (by cycling on the road, for example), you can still do it. I'm sure there are lots of people who have cycled from Kyoto to Tokyo roughly following the original Tokaido. Reading about their experiences may be more helpful than those of someone who walked the route.<br /><br />Anyway, good luck! <br /><br /> <br />Walking foolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07588575518866884807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3733700622236172709.post-19640145912133832932014-07-01T08:33:56.600+12:002014-07-01T08:33:56.600+12:00Dear Sir,

It has now become my biggest goal to go through the tokaido route like you did. I have been reading about it for a few weeks and I don't find much information in English. May I know what map/road atlas do you use? Where did you buy it from? <br /><br />I'm planning to do the reverse, from Kyoto to Tokyo, on bicycle, hopefully in March 2015. Thank you for your kind attention and I wish you a good day. <br /><br /><br />Warm regards, <br />Millardi<br />m (dot) nadesul (at) gmail (dot) comMillardihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10725179489764369203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3733700622236172709.post-70545415722260123862014-04-03T10:00:08.898+13:002014-04-03T10:00:08.898+13:00Hi Olivier

(Based on Alan Booth's book but making up my own trail)<br /><br />I can't decide if I should take the Nakasendo route or the Tokai route to get from Tokyo to Kyoto, and since you walked both maybe you could be so kind and tell me which one you think I should chose.<br /><br />Your input would be greatly appreciated.<br /><br />Thank you and kind regards from Switzerland<br /><br />Olivier<br />web01 (at) truan (dot) orgFuji Snailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00167061035228006803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3733700622236172709.post-61992331448306917452010-06-13T16:32:26.569+12:002010-06-13T16:32:26.569+12:00Although he has the name Toyohibiki on his yukata,...Although he has the name Toyohibiki on his yukata, the sumo wrestler in the photo isn't actually Toyohibiki, but probably one of his attendants.Walking foolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07588575518866884807noreply@blogger.com
