Matsu no Ochiya (Hamarikyu Onshi Garden Part 2) Swaying Staggered Stag

[GPP] February 18, 2018 16:00

 A swaying bird. This is a swaying projection created by sunlight reflected on the surface of the pond. (It's not a handshake photo!)

 It seems that only those who visited Matsuno Ochiya on the afternoon of a sunny winter day can see it.

 Matsuno Ochiya Special Opening is Thursday / 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm (cancelled during bad weather).


 The pine Ochiyaya was restored in 2010. It is a teahouse facing the Shioiri Pond and is one of the highlights of Hamarikyu.

 During the battle of Toba Fushimi (1867), Yoshinobu Tokugawa was raised by boat from Osaka Castle to Edo. It is said that it was Matsuno Ochiyaya that took a break for a while.

 If you visit during the winter season, you can't miss the watermark on the column board.

 The sunlight reflected on the surface of the tide pond reflects the stagger pattern on the wall through the watermark on the column board.

 As the surface of the water fluctuates by the wind, the light that passed through the staggered flat plate is also swaying....You can see it. You can clearly see it with the naked eye.


 Matsuno Ochiya is a teahouse, so the use is different from the teahouse (chashitsu) that performs tea ceremony.

 Walking around the stroll garden, resting your tired body, watching the tide pond, eating, etc....Yeah. It seems that it was a special place where important customers invited by the general could relax.

 There were many things to see inside Ochiyaya, a pine tree in Sukiya-style Shoin-zukuri Architecture.

 Different shelves, round windows, Tsushoin, pinecone and cicada nails, yakusugi cedar ceilings, etc.
