Hakone Daimyo Gyoretsu Procession

In the Edo period (1603–1867), the ruling Tokugawa shogunate established a policy by which the daimyo lords of all the domains under its control had to reside in Edo (present-day Tokyo) in alternate years. The lords were thus obliged to travel regularly between Edo and their home provinces. The daimyo’s wife and children were required to stay in the capital, serving as hostages to secure loyalty. The purpose of this policy was to make sure the daimyo would not garner the resources or distance that might lead to revolt against the shogunate. When the lords journeyed between Edo and their respective provinces, they had to be accompanied by a suitable number of samurai, and were also joined by various other attendants. Daimyo processions (daimyo gyoretsu) were often impressively fitted out, as the ruler of each domain sought to show off his prestige and wealth by dressing his retainers in luxurious clothing and having them carry other symbols of abundance.

You can get a glimpse of the splendor of such processions in Hakone-Yumoto on November 3, when about 170 men and women dress up in period garb for the annual Hakone Daimyo Gyoretsu and march along a stretch of the old Tokaido highway. Now an established part of the autumn scene in the area, this event was first organized in 1935 and is intended to imitate the Edo period processions of the Odawara domain, of which Hakone was part. Although its historical authenticity can be questioned, the Daimyo Gyoretsu does make for a vivid reminder of historic pageantry that continues to capture the imagination.

箱根大名行列

德川幕府作為江戶時代（1603-1867）的統治者，規定其麾下所有領國的大名（相當於諸侯）們，每隔一年都必須前往江戶（現東京）居住。因此大名們不得不定期在江戶和領國之間奔波移動。而大名的妻兒們則被要求留在江戶，作為人質，以確保大名對幕府的忠心。這項政策的目的，在於消滅大名謀反的機會，避免「天高皇帝遠｣的情況。大名需在一定人數的武士及其他各類隨從的陪同下，往來於江戶和領國之間。各地的領主們為了展現其雄厚實力，命家臣們錦衣玉帶，行進隊伍往往極盡奢華。

在箱根湯本，有機會於每年的11月3日一睹如此豪華的遊行。一年一度的箱根大名行列中，約170名男男女女身著古裝，沿著舊東海道的其中一段，列隊遊行。該活動最早於1935年揭幕，再現了箱根所屬的小田原藩在江戶時代的出行場景，如今已成為當地秋季的一道風景線。儘管其歷史準確性值得探討，但無疑已將這一引人懷想的歷史畫卷，生動地展現在世人面前。

江户时代（1603-1867），德川幕府作为掌权者，规定其麾下所有领国的大名（相当于诸侯）们，每隔一年都必须前往江户（现东京）居住。因此大名们不得不定期在江户和领国之间移动奔波。而大名的妻儿们则被要求留守江户，作为人质，以确保大名对幕府的忠诚。这项政策的目的，在于消除大名谋反的机会，避免“天高皇帝远”的状况。大名需在一定人数的武士及其他各类随从的陪同下，往来于江户和领国之间。各地的领主们为了展示其雄厚实力，命家臣们锦衣玉带，行进队伍往往极尽奢华。
