 From Shintomicho Station or from Tsukiji Station via Tsukiji Honganji Station, Tsukiji River Park, St. Luke's College of Nursing

Let's take a walk around here. It is truly a world of art created by nature.

 The autumn leaves of Tsukiji River Park, the yellow leaves "zelkova", and the green "sawtooth oak" behind them are beautiful.

 Pass through the monument of Ryunosuke Akutagawa, the ruins of the Asano House of Banshu-Ako Domain, and pass in front of St. Luke's.

 "Yurinoki" and the English name "Tulip Tree" are yellow.

 Look at the cultural monuments such as "Keio Gijuku Birthplace" and "Dismantling Shinsho", and see the ruins of the surrounding settlement.

It's also fun to visit the monument of the founding university. And then

 When I entered Akatsuki Park, which is behind Time Dome Akashi, I found it.

There is a great achievement in modernization of Japan and a bust of famous people who have controversial. This is Mr. Siebold.

 By this person, Japanese cherry blossoms and other plants were registered as scientific names under Latin names.

By the way, "primrose" is Primura sieboldii, and what is the plant name associated with this sieboldii?

 The St. Luke's Tower is also nice. There is also a monument to the U.S. Embassy on the Sumida River Terrace behind this.

 When you leave Akatsuki Park, it is "Momijibafu" (Kaede) that is turning golden.

In harmony with the rest of the greenery, it seems that oil paintings painted with paint shine.

As soon as possible.

Walking along the Nihonbashi River

 Everyone, do you know where the Nihonbashi River flows from?

To visit such questions and romance, I walked from a certain point upstream to the mouth via Kanda and Ryukanbashi.

 This is an explanation of the history and origin of Ryukanbashi.

 After Ryukan Bridge, go to Tokiwa Bridge in front of the Bank of Japan, a nationally designated important cultural property.

 Tokiwa Bridge. It is said that he went from Edo Castle to Nikko Kaido and Oshu Kaido via here.

 Next to Tokiwa Bridge is one stone bridge with Goto and Goto. It's famous for the signs of a lost child.

 Look at the West Bank Bridge on your right and arrive at Nihonbashi. It took about two and a half hours so far.

 The spirit of a woman, not the money. It's Date!

 The last bridge of the Nihonbashi River, Toyomi Bridge. Behind it, you can see Eitai Bridge.

 The water of the Nihonbashi River flows into the Sumida River and flows into Tokyo Bay and the ocean.

The Nihonbashi River has been flowing with humanity since the Edo period.

 Why don't you walk while exploring the history around you? run
