Projection Mapping

Roads Linking Wakasa to Nara and Kyoto

Overview

Map Layout

The map shows the topography of the area between Wakasa Bay and the old capitals of Nara and Kyoto. It is south-oriented, with the bay located near the presentation’s “Play” button. The two capitals are placed near the center of the map, just past the rugged mountains that span present-day Fukui, Kyoto, and Shiga Prefectures.

Salt Shipments

Over 1,300 years ago, large amounts of salt produced in Wakasa and Tsunuga (now Tsuruga) were supplied to the capital in Nara. Excavations uncovered many wooden tablets that served as shipping tags for Wakasa salt and various kinds of seafood. The routes used to transport salt to the capital are shown with illuminated white lines.

Omizu Okuri Ritual

The Omizu Okuri (“water-sending”) ritual is held in Obama on March 2nd to ceremonially send sacred water to Nara for the famous Omizutori (“water-drawing”) ritual at Todaiji Temple. The event at Todaiji involves drawing water from a sacred well and offering it to Buddhist deities. The purpose of the rite is to cleanse people of their sins and usher in the spring season. A shining blue, stream-like animation represents the presumed ritual flow of water from Obama to Nara.

Connection to Kyoto

After the capital was moved to Kyoto (initially named Heiankyo) in 794, the relationship between Wakasa and the capital continued to strengthen. Bright yellow lines illustrate the numerous routes that were used for travel and transportation of goods between the regions. Active trade naturally facilitated cultural exchange, which brought festivals, performing arts, religious teachings, and Buddhist statuary from Kyoto to the Wakasa region. Many traditions and cultural properties originating in the capital or reflecting its influence have been preserved in Wakasa.

Saba Kaido Road

In the Edo period (1603–1867), numerous shipments of mackerel from Wakasa Bay were transported to Kyoto on foot via a network of trade routes that came to be known as the Saba Kaido (“Mackerel Road”). Fish and seafood from the bay were precious commodities in the landlocked capital and became a significant part of Kyoto cuisine. Bright blue lines show the branching roads of the Saba Kaido network leading from Wakasa Bay to the capital.

Modern Transportation Network

Contemporary highways and national routes that have been built throughout the area are shown with illuminated white lines. The well-developed network of roads serves as a reminder that traditions, economy, and lifestyles may greatly change over time, but the main function of the roads remains the same, supporting progress through trade, travel, and the exchange of ideas between people.

地圖佈局

這份地圖勾勒出了若狹灣到奈良、京都兩大古都之間的地形地貌。地圖座標上南下北，若狹灣正落在布幕的「再生」（播放）鍵旁。兩大古都靠近地圖中心區域，緊接於橫跨福井縣、京都府和滋賀縣的峻俏山脈。

鹽的運輸

早在1300多年前，若狹和角鹿（今敦賀）地區出產的鹽就已經大量供應位於奈良的首都。考古發現了許多運輸若狹鹽和各類海產所用的貨運標籤「木簡」。投影中，通往首都的運鹽路線以發光的白線表示。

送水祭

東大寺的「水取祭」（取水儀式）舉世聞名，祭典中用到的聖水則來自小濱。每年3月2日，小濱舉辦「送水祭」，經由河川將聖水送往奈良。在東大寺舉辦儀式時，人們從聖井中汲水供奉佛教神明。祭典的意義在於洗滌罪孽，迎接春天到來。動畫裡面發光的藍色小河，代表了聖水從小濱一直流淌至奈良。

與京都的聯繫

西元794年，日本首都遷到了京都（舊稱「平安京」），而若狹與首都的聯繫越發密切。投影中的明黃色線條，勾勒出了的兩地間人貨往來的諸多道路。活躍的商貿活動帶動了文化的交流，京都的節日慶典、表演藝術、宗教信仰以及佛像文化相繼傳入若狹地區。時至今日，若狹地區依然保留著許多源自京都，或受其影響的風俗傳統和文化財產。

鯖街道

江戶時代（1603-1867），大量的鯖魚依靠人力從若狹灣送到京都，而這些交織的步行商道就被統稱為「鯖街道」。對於地處內陸的京都來說，若狹灣的海魚和其他海產都是珍貴的食材，也是京都飲食文化中的重要組成部分。投影中明亮的藍色線條代表了從若狹灣到京都之間的「鯖街道」分支路線。

現代交通網

本地區現有的現代高速公路和國道以明亮的白色線條表示。完善的道路交通網絡仿佛在提醒著我們：時日變遷，風俗傳統、經濟形態與生活方式都已經發生了巨大的變化，但通過貿易、旅行和人與人之間的思想交流來支持社會進步的道路主要功能從未改變。
