The station of Kuwana on Ise Bay, accessible from Miya by boat across the bay rather than by road along the shore, appears in this undated Tokaido print. The sea crossing between Miya and Kuwana was one of the Tokaido's most dramatic passages — a seven-league boat journey across open water that weather could delay for days — and the station's imagery often captures the harbor activity associated with this maritime waypoint.
