Ruins of Tsukuda Island ferryboat

It was the first year of Shoho (1644) that the fishermen of Settsu called by Ieyasu Tokugawa built and relocated Tsukuda Island. The ferry on Tsukuda Island began the following year, and since then it has become an indispensable transportation system throughout the Meiji and Taisho eras.
It was abolished in 1964 due to the completion of Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, and now monuments are built on both sides of the bridge.
