Painted by Utagawa Hiroshige I 1856 (Ansei 3) Tokyo Shiryō Collection 0432-C2

The Furukawa River changes its name from the Shibuya River in its upper course to the Akabane River, Shinhori River and Kanasugi River in its lower course, eventually flowing into Edo Bay. There are four bridges from Ichi-no-hashi to Shi-no-hashi starting from the dock at Azabu Jūban.
