Construction of that road, the predecessor to National Highway ���, began in ����. The person who is regarded as having propelled the construction was Gennyo Shonin of the Higashi Honganji Temple in Kyoto. He encouraged followers to immigrate to Ezo on his way to Ezo. He succeeded in collecting huge sums of construction funds for the road. He was then only �� years old. The construction of the Honganji Kaido took just �� months. It involved many people, including immigrants from the former Date domain to eastern Hokkaido and Ainu people of the Iburi region. Over ��� years has passed since then. At Nakayama Pass, a statue of Gennyo Shonin, the driving force behind the Honganji Kaido, stands praying for the safety of passers-by.
