Remnants of the 15th wards of Tokyo Prefecture

[Asunaro] December 11, 2018 09:00

In 1878, we started in Kojimachi-ku, where the Imperial Palace is located.

Like writing the word "no" clockwise

Kojimachi, Kanda, Nihonbashi, Kyobashi, Shiba, Azabu, Akasaka, Yotsuya,
Ushigome, Koishikawa, Hongo, Shitaya, Asakusa, Honjo, Fukagawa and 15 wards were established.

Nihonbashi Ward and Kyobashi Ward merged on March 15, 1947, and there is the current Chuo-ku.

 The name of the station at Kyobashi Tsukishima Post Office is a remnant of Kyobashi-ku, Tokyo.

The scenery mark is "Tsukishima Nishinaka-dori Shopping Street and Monjayaki spatula".

While a lot of Showa architecture remains in the city from the Taisho era, there is also one aspect where skyscrapers stand like bamboo shoots after rain. Take a leisurely stroll through the Tsukishima area, which has a lot of fun other than Monja.

How about? Try looking for an easy flow.
