• I examine the transition of urban development along the Lake Biwa Canal that was based on the function of navigation systems, and consider the effect of infrastructure on urban development. The Lake Biwa Canal was constructed in the 19^<th> century by using water from the Lake Biwa, applying the latest technology of the Meiji period. This canal has produced many amenities in the 100 years since its construction, in spite of the disappearance of shipping there. It was found that providing a navigation system was one of the most important functions of the Lake Biwa Canal, and technology of its construction were reflective of Japanese climate and culture at that time.
