Even though it was mid-March, on the way to work while thinking that it was cold, I saw a wonderful frost pillar at Kameibashi Park. This year, March 6th is Keihaku, and Keihaku is the season when insects that had warmed the earth and hibernation came out of the hole.

Kamei Bridge Park is next to Kamei Bridge, which connects Ginza and Tsukiji (the capital expressway runs on the north and below). This park is located in the Tsukiji River before the Metropolitan Expressway ran), and there is a flower bed in the perennial plant called Pele Near Garden in the park square.

By the way, the name of Kamei Bridge comes from the fact that after the "Ginza Fire" in 1872, the former feudal lord Tsuwano and Koremi Kamei, who were related to this area, invested their own money and built a wooden bridge.
