Today is a walk in Akashicho.
The road between St. Luke's International University and Maruyama Nori Store is called "Idomechi-dori".
At the southeast corner of Akashi Elementary School, there is an explanation panel about the settlement, which is convenient to learn about the history of this area.
At the Catholic Tsukiji Church, Sekiyama of Yae-zakura welcomed me in a soft warm pink color.
A little more in the direction of Mr. Shiose, Akashicho Ryokudo had unique flowers of Yae-zakura's "turmeric" and "Kazuha".
"turmeric" is turmeric. It was named because it resembles that color.
"Kazuha" in the photo is said to have been named because there is a single green meshibe in the center of the petals.
On the other side, Sekiyama (Kanzan) shook a fluffy, dark pink petals in the wind.
In the middle of the cherry blossom viewing in Yae-zakura, visit a monument to learn about the predecessor of the famous university here in Akashicho, the birthplace of the Mission School.
Monument of "The Birthplace of Women's Seigakuin"
And the monument "Aoyama Gakuin Memorial Land"
There are many monuments around St. Luke's International Hospital and International University.
The fact that this land was designated as a settlement from the end of the Tokugawa period has led to Japan's Civilization and enlightenment since the Meiji era.
Going back a little more history, I think it would be good to face the Asano Family Residence in Genroku period, the Dutch studies at the end of the Edo period, and the monument to the birthplace of Keio University related to the dismantled Shinsho. Please enjoy Akashicho with a slightly different taste.
The process and hardships that led to the naming of "Residential Street"
You can see it on the website of "NPO Tsukiji Retaining Study Group", which is engaged in research activities on settlements.
