Jikkoku-bune<\/em> (10 koku<\/em> boat) was a transport boat used in the Edo era, transporting sake, rice, or passengers from Fushimi (Kyoto) to Osaka. The word koku is a Japanese unit of volume, and one koku is about 150 kg. So, the jikkoku (10 koku)-bune could load about 1,500 kg of rice. The boats disappeared in the last years of the Meiji era due to the development of land transport. However, the boats now have been revived as a pleasure cruiser and are popular. There are cherry trees and willow trees on both sides of the river, and also an old style Japanese sake brewery. You can enjoy the atmosphere of the Edo era all the year round from the boat.<\/p>\n
