Walking through the streets that appear in rakugo

[Dharma] October 22, 2017 14:00

Ryukanbashi 2.jpgRyukanbashi, which connects Ryuka-cho (currently Uchikanda) and the former Hon-Shiroganemachi (currently Honishi-cho), is a very rare bridge of Japan's first reinforced concrete traft bridge built in 1923. It is said that it is derived from the fact that there was a house of the former Shogunate monk "Ryukan Inoue".

 

Rakugo "Straw Doll" The daughter Okuma of Nukaya in Kanda Ryuka-cho, sold herself to a giroya in trouble eating, but tricked her money from a monk named Sainen who wanted to contract. The grudged Sainen boiled the straw dolls in oil and cursed the bear. "If you have a straw doll, you have to nail." "No, Okuma is the daughter of Nukaya."...It's one of the stories.

 

 

Now, when you go to Edo-dori St. from Tokiwa Bridge, which is the restoration work, it is a diagonal angle, Muromachi 3-chome "Honishicho Juken Store Ruins". Currently, the construction of a super-high-rise office building is underway, and at the exit No. 4 of Shin-Nihonbashi Station at the intersection, there is an explanation board of "Nagasakiya Ruins".

 

Takaramachi 21.jpgThe story of the rakugo "Nagasaki no Akahan" begins when the father of the neighboring land "Kanafukicho" (currently Honishi-cho) Kanataya accounts for his son. The mother's affection for her son, married to a large store in Nagasaki with the care of her uncle, and her father returned home with red paper and married a daughter of Hatchobori, and the bride of Nagasaki hides herself in a beggar and arrives safely in Edo, giving back the sin of the checkpoint....Set in the middle of Edo, it is a feature-length story of a humanistic story with fantasy and reality.

 

 

From Juken Store, walk from Ukiyo-e Koji, Choledo Muromachi, Takarada Ebisu Shrine, Sugimori Shrine, Sanko Shindo in Nihonbashi Horidome in about 15 minutes.

It is a seat on the Hyakkawa stage, a kaiseki restaurant located in Nihonbashi Ukiyokoji until the early Meiji era.

 

Rakugo "Hyakukawa" I came to visit Hyakubei from the countryside and introduced Chizuka-ya in Kayamachi. The new Hyakubei is on the second floor with a nail, saying that it is a rough riverbank. Hyakubei, who has a terrible accent, is Chimpunkanpun for customers. Hyakubei, who was sent by a customer for messenger, brought "Surgeon Kamoike (Kameji) Genbayashi-sensei" by mistake for "Jobanzu's poet character (Kamemoji)". Both professors lived near the path of Sanko Inari. You're out of work, "How much is it?" If everyone pulls out, Ochi can laugh with a local accent, saying, "It's a turtle, a seagull, a tant, only one character." It's a story created for the promotion of Hyakukawa.
