[Chuo-ku to enjoy with children] #11: Jisshi Park (Nihonbonodenmacho)

[Dye] September 1, 2016 09:00

I sometimes feel the sign of autumn.
Chibi of my home has grown a lot and is running around every day (sweat)
It's been a long time since this time. But it's a small park. 。 。

   

There are 87 parks, large and small, in Chuo Ward.

(List of parks in the ward: http://www.city.chuo.lg.jp/sisetugaido/koento/kouen_hiroba_ichiran.html)
Today, I would like to introduce "Jisshi Park" in a small place.

Near Tokyo Metro Kodemmacho Station.

 
Jisshi Park has small slides, sandboxes, swings, etc., and half is a large space.

The slides are somewhat surprised, and the sandboxes are dug and stacked with carelessness.
Every child loves it.

The slide at Jisshi Park has a leaf-like shape at the point of climbing and is a bit fashionable.
It is safe with a design designed to prevent injury.

   

The sandbox is equipped with toys such as scoops.

Everyone uses it neatly, and it doesn't scatter whenever they go.◎

   

         
This area is the site of the Temmacho prison, and how about letting children play?...I thought it was
The Jushi Elementary School, which had survived the war, was closed due to a decrease in children.
In fact, it was comfortable and the children were playing very well, so I didn't care about it.

   
This park preserves the oldest "bell of time", which told people the time during the Edo period.

The first bell in the Edo period. It was located in Edo Castle when Hidetada was the second shogun, but it was said that it originated in Nihonbashi Kokumachi (now near Honmachi and Muromachi).
With the expansion of the city area, it was installed in nine places, including Asakusa, Akasaka, and Yotsuya, but it seems that the bell at the time of Kokumachi is the oldest.


In addition, there is a monument about Yoshida Shoin, which has reached its end in Temmacho prison in Ansei's prison, and a part of the stone wall of the prison.


There is also a public bath called "Jushiyu" in the adjacent Jushi Square.

A public bath that opened two years ago.

There is also a bicycle rental port.


Chibi said, "What did everyone think and heard the sound of this bell?..."I thought and looked at the bell, or thought, "Let's go to a public bath later."

   

It's an unusual everyday life to let children play in the park, but it's a bit recommended because you can think about history.

It's also ◎ for adults to play on the bench.
