The 2011 Spring History Walk / Nihonbashi Course, hosted by the Chuo-ku Cultural Properties Supporters Association of the Chuo-ku Volunteer Guide, was held from 1:00 pm on April 16 (Sat). This is an annual event, Kotoshi will be held on the Nihonbashi course and the Ginza course (scheduled for April 24).
Applicants who applied in the ward bulletin "News Chuo of the Ward" gathered at the Nihonbashi Minamizume Falls Square where the recently completed dock is located. Perhaps due to the impact of the recent earthquake, the number of recruiters was 11, about one-third, a small number. Nihonbashi, which celebrated its 100th anniversary of the bridge, has been cleaned and has traces of war damage. Visit the site of the famous Shirakiya well, the birthplace of the postal system.
The old Joban Bridge, which walks to Ichiishi Bridge, lost Shiroishi Bridge, and Tokiwa Bridge, cannot be crossed because it is under construction. The main building of the Bank of Japan, an important cultural property, conveys its history and profoundness to modern architecture. The Mitsui Main Building, which was built in the early Showa period, symbolizes the recovery from the Great Kanto Earthquake. The area facing Chuo-dori in front of Mitsukoshi Nihonbashi Main Store is undergoing redevelopment following Cored Muromachi.
The site of the Nihonbashi Fish Bank and Fish Market is a place before it moved to the current Tsukiji Temple, where the footprints of reconstruction after the earthquake remain. It traces the remnants of the Gokaido connecting the countries in the Edo period in the square of the road mark. Finally, we finished a two-hour historical walk on the west side of Minamizume, where the high billboard was located. The cherry trees shine on the surface of the river with a fresh green atmosphere, and the seasonal change in the early summer shines. ●Akira Makibuchi
