Location: Art Area B1

〈Organizers〉 Keihan Holdings Co., Ltd. Corporation
Co-sponsored by: Art Area B1

In cooperation with cultural facilities, governments and universities along the Keihan Railway, rivers and bridges that flow along the highway ("water path"), food and entertainment ("food path"), railways ("Iron Road"), highways and post towns ("land roads"), and events such as "History Lecture", "History Exploration Walk", and "Workshops" were held throughout the year.

Among them, in the theme of the history and culture of "railways"-Iron Road Edition-, lectures, walks, exhibitions, and postcards on the theme of "Otogi Train" that used to be active in Uji for a long time. An exhibition introducing the history of railways was held in collaboration with the Japan Postcard Association.

A postcard from the Meiji era to the early Showa era, immerse yourself in the world of postcards beautifully printed with monochrome and hand-painted photos and illustrations of various historical sites, annual events, and commemorative events along the Keihan Line. I enjoyed the feeling of having you go out on a trip to sightseeing spots around the railway cars, historic sites along the Keihan Line, and sightseeing spots.
