Visit the site "Edo Japan, A Virtual Tour." Begin at the checkpoint. Written text can be found at the bottom or right-hand side of the page. Click on "next" to move down the Eastern Highway, the Tokaido. There are a total of sixteen images. Of course, you can take "side trips" according to what interests you by clicking on highlighted words (hot links). Write a couple of paragraphs of your impressions of Tokugawa society based on your internet trip. Write another paragraph evaluating this site as a historical source. How objective does the narrative text appear to be (why or why not?).

    After traveling the highway, click on "Map" (of Edo) and examine the layout of the city. Click on some of the various parts of the city to get a feel for life in the shogun's capital. Write a paragraph on one part of the city you find interesting (and be sure to state why that is so).
