The purpose of this study is to take all places described in the illustrations (images) and commentaries (text) of the "Meisho-zue" of the Edo period as consistent famous places, and to clarify from what perspective they are positioned as a place of interest. This paper takes up the "Yodogawa-ryougan-Ichiran" as its subject, and focuses on how a particular place of interest is described in relation to other places within a given geographical area. Through the characteristics of their spatial scale, we conducted an analysis of the structure of making them famous places at that time and extracted their characteristics. By focusing on the linear connection of famous places developed along rivers in the "Meisho-zue", we aim to examine the broad cultural and technological connection and obtain knowledge that contributes to the valorization of local resources based on the perspective of territorio.
