The story depicts the grandsons of Yajirobe and Kitahachi, the protagonists from Jippenshu Ikku's earlier "Tokaidochu hizakurige" (Shank's Mare Tokaido), on their way to visit an exhibition in London. The pair leaves from Yokohama, passing through Shanghai, Hong Kong, Saigon, Singapore, Ceylon, Suez, Cairo, Alexandra, Marseilles, Paris, Gibraltar, and Southampton along the way.
