At the site of Kyobashi 3-chome, Kyobashi, a monument to "Kyobashi Daikon Riverside Vegetable Market Ruins" is built.

In this area, the original Kyobashi Daikon Riverside Park was rebuilt and opened to the public as "Kyobashi Daikon Riverside Hospitality Garden".

In this corner, there is also a monument to the birthplace of Edo Kabuki.

Kansaburo Saruwaka of Saruwakaza (later Nakamuraza) (first Kanzaburo Nakamura) raised a tower in the southern part of Nakahashi in 1624 (1624). It seems that it is.

Juugatsuzakura is said to bloom twice a year around October and early April.

It seems to be a horticultural variety of Kohiganzakura (Kohiganzakura), which is said to be a hybrid of Edo equinoctial week and bean cherry blossoms. It has been widely cultivated since the late Edo period, and there may be a wide range of flowering times between varieties.

In any case, it has a good contrast with the autumn leaves of oshima cherry planted nearby.
