Hello. This is Harumi Madame.
It's the first time I've written it. 。
A while ago, on a pleasant sunny autumn day, I purchased a one-day 
bus ticket for the city bus and walked around the city.
From Nihonbashi, the starting point of the highway, take the Chuo-dori (Tokaido) to the west with Brabra. The intersection of Kyobashi in no time while watching the remarkable redevelopment scenery.
Do you want the balustrade with giboshi remaining here?
Kyobashi is the official bridge of Edo shogunate, along with Nihonbashi and Shimbashi. In other words, it was a high-class bridge under the direct control of the Shogunate.
There are various theories about when Kyobashi was created, but it is said that it was created together with Nihonbashi around 1603 (Keicho 8).
The Kyobashi River, which had flowed down now, was reclaimed and the bridge was gone, but the Kyobashi railing with giboshi remains at the intersection.
There is a legend in this giboshi. 。 。
"I'm going to stop coughing." When the cough doesn't stop, if you wrap a rope around this giboshi and make a wish, the cough is strangely relieved. 。 。 It seems that the common people of Edo believed this.
In the past, I had a cold and stopped coughing for more than two months, so I remembered it and came here (laughs).
I didn't tie the rope, but it was a coincidence that the cough stopped strangely two days later ...
The giboshi decoration of Kyobashi survived even if the bridge was replaced, and the remaining main pillar railing giboshi was replaced by Ishibashi in 1875.
It's getting cold. It's a cold season. If your cough doesn't stop, why don't you warm up and wish this giboshi?
