"Nihonbashi Marching Committee" is formed by volunteers from a local printing company, and "Marching" is a coined word representing "town ing".

We aim to create a vibrant city that will rejuvenate the city, that is, the progress of the city. And it was written in the brochure.

Unfortunately, the watercolor exhibition in the bank lobby has ended for a limited time, but you can see it on the left-hand side of the automatic door of the Securities Hall.

If you are interested, please contact us.

Exit 8 of Kayabacho and go to the ground of a certain hall.

In the cab of the hall facing the street, there is a MAP of Kayabacho Konjaku.

One corner of the alley is Sanno Hie-jinja Shrine (auxiliary shrine) and the other.

The residence at the corner is Chisen-in, which is famous for its "near Yakushido hall in Minami Kayabacho".

The corner is Enomoto (later Takarai), a poet from the Edo period, whose representative works is "Echigo-ya Kinusaku sound and clothing (Koromogae)". There is also a stone monument of the site (died here).

By the way, what is the first MAP?

"I see! It means Kayabacho Konjaku MAP.

Old maps and current maps are arranged, and you can literally compare the present and the past, see changes after the Great Kanto Earthquake and subsequent changes, reconstruction after the war, and the bustle of Kayabacho.

Once you've finished reading this, let's go one step from the automatic door to the hall.

On the left cover, there is a watercolor painting of 100 views of Nihonbashi Kayaba-cho, and you can be healed just by looking at it.

And another place, there is a place (bank) that displays this hundred views!

Walk along the intersection of Kayabacho toward Hatchobori, and if you see the drugstore on the right side, it is the bank next to it.

It is also on display in this lobby to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the branch.

However, unfortunately, this is a bank, so you can only see it during business hours on business days.

However, there are places nearby selling postcards and Pochi bags for this watercolor painting.

(The types of watercolors include the Daiichi National Bank of Meiji period, the Tokyo Stock Exchange around 1945, and the Nisshokan.)

When I walk around Kayabacho, there are various discoveries.

Be sure to take a walk
