From Nihonbashi, take a long-established tour of Otemmacho and a historical walk along Nikko Kaido.

[Silver] June 10, 2017 16:00

 Today is a long-established tour and historical walk that has been around since the Edo period.

First of all, a specialty store of fans and fans, "Iba Sen" from 1590 (AD 1590).

We saw wonderful fans in the store and worked out a gift plan. Here, the right side of the store was the "Iba Sen Machikado Exhibition Hall", and along with Ukiyo-e, a wonderful fan with Ukiyo-e prints, a must-have item for the coming season, was also displayed.

 When you leave the shop, you will head to Sugimori Shrine. On the way, there is a wonderful tile pattern on the pavement of Horidome 1-chome. At Sugimori Shrine, sound health prayed for the lottery.

 Next, from the corner going a little north to the "Tokyo Sky Tree" on the right, you can see the "Tokyo Sky Tree" on your right, and in Otemmacho from there, there is a "Spring 7 Views Daitenmacho Cotton Shop" and "Autumn 74 Views Large Temmacho Gofuku Shop" at Oe, and you can see "Hiroshi Hyakudo" at hand. 

 And a little further away, there was `` Juzaburo Tsutaya's Koshodo '', a representative work of Sharaku Toshusai, a genius painter who came out by the same publisher, `` The third generation Oniji Otani's Niji Edobei '', `` Ebizo Ichikawa's Takemura Sadayuki Susumu "in my mind.

 

 The next shop I visited was "Edoya" from 1718 (AD 1718), a brush specialty store that has continued since the Edo period. Here, I bought a toothbrush using horse hair. I've been using it for the past five years.

On the opposite side of the shop, a monument of "Old Nikko Kaido Hondori" is erected.

 Next, go a little north and look at the monument of "Magome Kansoyu Yashiki Ruins" at the corner of the road.

 Visit to Takarada Ebisu Shrine. I saw the history of the shrine and learned the origin of the name "Bettazuke".

 

 Visit the store and museum of "Ozu Washi", founded in 1653 (1653), to close the long-established tour. I saw a map around the old and new stores.

 I studied a number of Japanese paper designated as World Cultural Heritage and saw a number of wonderful Japanese paper products. On the second floor here, we have a free tea ceremony machine for customer service, which is really thankful.
