Meisho
Locations alluded to in Japanese poetry / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Meisho (名所, lit. 'famous places') originally referred to sites in Japan famous for their associations with specific poetic or literary references. With the development of woodblock printing and newer styles of tourism during the Edo period, the term came to denote a wider range of places of interest.
For the 17th century empress, see Empress Meishō.
