Station Hodogaya was established in 1601, and it was the westernmost post station in Musashi Province during the Edo period. The honjin (post inn for government officials) still belongs to the same family today as the one that owned it when it was first opened. Additionally, there is a stone Buddha statue that travelers often prayed to for safety while traveling along the Tōkaidō. Today it's part of city Yokohama.

Shinozuka Hachiro (the one dancing) telling the story of the death of Nitta Yoshioki to Yura Hyogo and his wife, followers of Ashikaga.
