"Echizenbori"-Reiganjima visit monument "Echizenbori Children's Park"

[Orii Mai] June 21, 2012 08:30

P1020120.JPG P1020121 (640x480). jpg This area around the Edo period was the residence of the Echizen Fukui feudal lord Matsudaira Echizen Mamoru.

The mansion was surrounded on three sides (north, west, south) by Iribori. This is called "Echizenbori".

I was there. The revetment of Echizen moat is masonry, and stone walls are still excavated from the soil.

Yes, it seems to be. The width of the moat is between 12 and 15 (about 20 to 30 m) and is used as a canal and cargo.

It seems that a small boat loaded with was passing through.

 

In the Meiji era, moats gradually reclaimed, and most of them were reclaimed after the Great Kanto Earthquake.

After that, it was completely buried. Today, the name "Echizenbori" is named "Echizenbori Park".

You can only see it.

In Echizen Park, a boat called ECHIZEN LINE is built as a playground equipment, and elephants are around it.

・I have dolphins and sea otters. Real SL and cars are arranged.

   In the first year of Kanei (1624), the honorary Reigan Jojin was Reigonji Temple.

It was founded, and land development began in the entire swamp.

In 1634, in the south of Terachi, Echizen Fukui feudal lord Matsudaira

Tadamasa worshiped a beach mansion of over 27,000 tsubo.

Sanno Festival-Hie-jinja Shrine Shinko Festival

[Orii Mai] June 12, 2012 08:30

Friday, June 8, 2012 Hie-jinja Shrine Shinto Festival was held. This year, I show it slowly at the Imperial Palace Sakashitamon.

He waited for a while, but he passed through the Sakashita Gate due to the death of "Highness of the Beard" Prince Mikasa Tomohito.

He is in a hurry! There were no music or sounds, and the procession proceeded. On this day, it was sunny and sunny.

It was strong.

"Bach English" ~ amazake Yokocho ~

[Orii Mai] May 29, 2012 08:30

 There is a shop called "Bachiei" in amazake Yokocho. It's a specialty store of shamisen. It doesn't matter.  

The grandfather of the current president (Mr. Kobayashi) is the founder. He set up a store in Hamacho in 1914 and moved to his current location two years later in 1916. It seems that it was rebuilt in 1983 and is now the current store. It seems that the shop in amazake Yokocho has changed a lot. From that time, there are Tsuzura Iwai and Santaiyakiya's tea and Morinoen's yakitori and Kusuke's liquor store Shinkawa.

Anything is OK if it's about the shamisen. We handle everything from skin to music.  About 60% of Nagauta, 10% of Kiyoharu, 10% of Jobanzu, and there are few gidayu in folk song.

As the number of people involved in Japanese music decreases, we have to create such a shop in order to connect DNA as a Japanese person.

Shinkawa Park 4/7 16:00 Cherry blossoms

[Orii Mai] May 11, 2012 08:30

It is the cherry blossoms as of 16:00 on April 7 of the cherry blossom viewing season. It's a bit cold today. A group of cherry blossom visitors can be found here and there. There is also a group of stoves. Is this warm? For hot sake? There were many groups who brought lunch boxes and sake. It was just right with a down coat. There were quite a lot of visitors. Some people took a walk and passed by. There are many types of ships on the waterside line in the Sumida River. Everything is full. There were many houseboats with lanterns.

If it gets warmer, it will be in full bloom!

[Orii Mai] May 9, 2012 08:30

The program

Mouth
Kotobuki-style Sanbaso
A place where the five Shiranami men of Inasegawa are aligned

  Intermission: Lottery Competition

Yoshitsune Senbonzakura Mt. Yoshino


The children showed off the results of their hard work and worked hard. 

Adults of staff also support as much guidance, backside, planning, public relations, etc. as possible.
The audience full of the precincts was also very excited with their full support.

It goes without saying that sponsors also supported lottery products and children's Kabuki so that they can be sustained, and it became an event that further strengthened local unity and bonds.

I would like this kind of project to be expanded more and more.
It was a fun day.005.JPG
