Tanaka Honjin was the first Honjin to be built in Kawasaki-juku in 1629, and was a magnificent building of 231 tsubo (762 m2) with a gate and entrance. Of the three Honjins in Kawasaki-juku, it was called the Shimohonjin because it was on the Edo side. At the beginning of Kawasaki-juku in 1623, neither Hatago nor Honjin existed. In 1628, Masamune Matsudaira of Aisyu Tamano (Ofuna City) on the way to Edo tried to stay at Kawasaki-juku due to bad weather on the way to Edo. She said she had to stay at Myonji Temple. Masazuna advised the Shogunate of the deficiencies of Kawasaki-juku, and as a result, a subsidy of 100 cars was issued by the Shogunate, and the following year the 12 Hagogo and the Tanaka family became a temporary headquarters. ) Was opened.

However, at the end of the Edo period, the frequency of change of attendance decreased, and it seems that it declined.

There are two explanation boards, each written as below. The Tanaka (Hyogo) Honjin is the oldest Honjin in the inn established in the Kanei 5th year (1628). Born here is a person who made an effort to rebuild the inn's finances, and is also known as the author of the "Private Ministry", which discussed agricultural policy at the time. The oldest Tanaka Honjin among the three Honjin that are said to have been in Kawasaki-juku are located in Kanei 5th year (1628). Tanaka Honjin is also called the "lower Honjin" because its location is the most east, that is, near Edo. The main team was an inn dedicated to the samurai class such as daimyo, shogunate officials, and envoys. Its structure is to accommodate the samurai class, such as a gate with a gate and an upper entrance that was not allowed by ordinary private houses at that time, and a space incorporating the style of the Shoin, and the main staff of the main team It had both the living space of a family, which was chosen by the Shogunate as a reliable and famous family. The remodeling and reconstruction of the building was subsidized by the Shogunate and various hans, and operated as a semi-public and semi-private operation. The main team prospered with the introduction of the shift of attendance, as many daimyo began to travel on the highway, but in the latter part of Edo, it also declined due to financial difficulties of the daimyo family and relaxation of the shift of attendance. It is well known that in the 4th year of Ansei (1857), the U.S. Consul General in Japan, Harris, changed his inn to a mannen-ya after seeing his younger generation in Tanaka Honjin. There is a record that during the first year of the Meiji era (1868), during the Emperor Meiji's Toyuki, he had a lunch at Tanaka Honjin and had a break. In the 1870s, the new government carried out smallpox all over the country in response to the smallpox epidemic, but in Kawasaki, it was announced that Tanaka Honjin would do it six times from November to December. In the first year of Hoei (1704), Tatsuya Tanaka (Hyogo), who succeeded the operation of Tanaka Honjin at the age of 42, worked on the shogunate government and succeeded in operating the ferry boat of Rokugo River (Tama River) as a contract of Kawasaki inn, and flew. The profit of the rent was applied to the budget of the inn, and the management of the inn that was exhausted by the role of the horse was rebuilt. In addition, as the price of goods rises with the development of the merchandise economy, the distribution system becomes more complicated, the illegality of the administration and the devastation of rural areas due to high tribute to the government, and the tight budget of the Shogunate government, the Shogunate's experience as a self-serving officer and the observant eye of the Shogunate. He wrote the “Private Ministry Ministry” discussed. As a result, he was recognized by the Yatsushiro Shogun Yoshimune, who was promoting the reform of Kyoho, and was promoted to the Shogunate to play a part in it.
