| I brought my bicycle in a bag on the train to Maruoka station and started cycling again from there. |
 There is an old castle, according to the sign at the station. This castle has the oldest existing Japanese castle tower.I crossed the Kuzuriyu River on an old iron bridge. The upper river is a heavy snowfall area, there are many dams for hydraulic power generation. |
 The Ichijodani prospered in the 15th century, and the site of castle was left without change.It is a quiet farm village now, but in the Middle Ages it seems to have been the Echizen nation's capital with a population of 10,000 people. |
