Konjac Island

[CAM] December 26, 2015 12:00

"Konjac Island" also touches the wind.

 

 August 31, 1928 (1928), "The wiping of the sky is as intense as it is. ・・ ・ ・ Take a shared steamship from Shinohashi to Eitai Bridge. ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ Walk between Auta and Konjac Island Geisha Shop and offer to Yakushido hall Kayabacho and return home after nine steps. I've already passed three days at night."

 

"Shinohashi" was replaced by a steel bridge in 1912. The current bridge was completed in 1976 (page 83 of Monoshiri Encyclopedia). Therefore, of course, the Shinohashi seen by the wind is not the current one.

 

"Konjac Island" The current Shinkawa area was called Reigishima (Ring Itsukushima) in the Edo period, and the contracted site for the Reigishi Bridge was reclaimed during the Kyoho period, and Tomijimamachi 1-2-chome was 1845 (1845) The land was formed by landfill on the west side of the island, but the coastal area of Kamejima River was insufficient. An Oka place was formed in the area, and the prostitute to which I belong was called Konjac Geisha.

 

"Reiganjima Monument" The origin of Reiganjima Island was erected by the Reiganjima Preservation Society in March 1977. (The installation location is 1-12-1, Shinkawa, Chuo-ku, Echizenbori Children's Park)

"In this area, 370-80 years ago, when the castle town of Edo was pioneered, it was a whole marsh Yoshihara. In 1624 (1624), the honorary Reiganji founded Reiganji Temple and took the first step in land development. In 1635, feudal lord Tadamasa Matsudaira of Echizen Fukui worshiped over 27,000 tsubo of Hamayashiki. Funairi moat was dug on the north, west, and south sides of the mansion, and later became the cause of the place name Echizen moat.
In the great fire of Edo in 1657 (1657), Reiganji Temple burned down and turned to Fukagawa Shirakawa-cho, the site became a public hall, and the towns in the city moved collectively as replacement sites.
The observatory was divided into 13 towns, Tomishima, Hamacho, Shiomachi, Okawabata, Kawaguchimachi, Nagasakimachi, Reiganjima, Shiroganemachi, Higashikomachi, Shinbune Matsumachi, Echizenbori, and Minami-Niihori. Everything became scorched by the Great East Japan Earthquake of the Taisho era, and in July 1931 (1931), the name of the town closely related to Shinkawa 1, 2-chome, Reiganjima 1, 2-chome, Echizenbori 1, 2-chome, and Echizenbori 1, 2, and 3-chome. In 1971 (1971), the new river and 2) were implemented. This monument is erected with concern that nostalgic archeological sites that symbolize the history from the Edo period are disappearing. "
