On the east side of Honmachi St. in the central part of Katsuyama City runs a stone wall intermittently with the height of 5 to 7 meters almost in parallel with the street. This stone wall is called Shichirikabe and was built by piling up round riverbed stones on the wall surface of the river terrace created by the stream of the Kuzuryu River. The castle town of Katsuyama incorporates Shichirikabe inside the town with the castle and samurai residences built above the river terrace while town houses and temples built below it.
