Sekigahara
The location where the Battle of Sekigahara between the Eastern Army led by TOKUGAWA Ieyasu and the Western Army led by ISHIDA Mitsunari took place in 1600. Nine sites from the battle are designated as National Historic Sites. Because several highways intersect here, the area was famous for being a battlefield throughout history, such as during the Jinshin Rebellion in 672.
