Odoi is the bank of the ground which Hideyoshi Toyotomi built to Kyoto
in Tensho 19 (1591).
Odoi had the role which distinguishes the inside of Kyoto, and the outside
of kyoto clearly
with military defense and the measure against a flood.
The width of the base of Odoi is 9m, the height is 3m and the total extension
is about 23km.
Simultaneously with Odoi, the ditch with a width of 4m to 18m was dug.
Now, as for the marks in Odoi, about nine places of historic relics are
left.
I introduce on June 5, 2005 along with the route which is due to walk at the meeting of the Kansai history walk.
A click of ○ and □ of the remains of Odoi displays details.
