The best time to see the dogwood on Kiboricho Street.
To be precise, you can see the map below
, the pink dogwood on Kiboricho Street.
The dogwood planted on both sides of this street is a relatively young tree that blooms earlier than other blocks on Kibikicho Street and dogwood on Matsuya Street.
I really like the sound of the word "Kibikicho-dori", but the only street running in Ginza that bears the name of the town is currently Kibikicho-dori and Kibikicho Naka-dori.
It makes you feel the history as well as Shinmachi-dori and Kiyacho-dori in Kyoto.
Originally, Kobiki-cho was a town where sawmillers gathered from various countries lived for the renovation of Edo Castle and the construction of a castle town.
By the way, it seems that wood grinding is not a person who cuts a tree, but a craftsman who saw logs cut from a mountain into pillars, beams, boards, etc. using a saw called saw, and along with carpenters It seems that wood grinding was an engineer who played an important role in architecture.
A playhouse was built in the “craftsman town” and became a “play town”, and since the Meiji era, luxury restaurants lined the eaves and flourished as a “restaurant town”.
The name of "Kinbiki-cho" was reclaimed in 1951 for rubble treatment by Sanjukenbori in an air raid, and was lost when Ginza and Kobiki-cho were connected to land (the landfill was completed the following year 27).
Even if "Kinbikicho" disappears, "Kinbikicho-dori" remains, and you can feel the depth of Ginza's history there.
