Forty-first of the 53 stations of the Tōkaidō
 was the forty-first of the fifty-three stations of the Tōkaidō. It is located in former Owari Province in what is now part of the Atsuta-ku section of the city of Nagoya, in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. It was six km from Narumi-juku, the preceding post station.
History.
In addition to being a post station on the Tōkaidō, Miya-juku was also part of the Minoji (a minor route which runs to Tarui-juku on the Nakasendō) and the Saya Kaidō. As a result, it had the most "hatago" of any post station along the Tōkaidō, with two "honjin", one "wakihonjin" and 248 lesser inns. 
The classic ukiyo-e print by Andō Hiroshige ("Hōeidō" edition) from 1831 to 1834 depicts two gangs of men dragging a portable shrine cart (not shown) past a huge "torii" gate. The "torii" gate is the symbol of a Shinto shrine, and the name of "Miya" also means a "Shinto shrine". The shrine in question is the famous Atsuta Shrine, one of the most famous in Japan and a popular pilgrimage destination in the Edo period. The area is now part of downtown Nagoya metropolis.
