Nissaka: Distant View of Mukenzan from Sayononakayama (Nissaka, Sayonoyamanak Mukenzan enbo)
This scene shows a trail of people traveling up the road. At the base of the print is a rest stop where people can stop for tea or sustenance. Beyond the road is a lovely landscape scene which is typical in a Hiroshige print.
