About donation by dogwood Initiative of Friendship
In 1912 (1912), when the then mayor of Tokyo Yukio Ozaki donated 3,000 cherry trees to the United States, dogwood was a tree sent to Japan in 1915 (1915).
In 2012 (2012), in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the donation of Sakura and with a view to future friendly relations between Japan and the United States, the United States launched the "dogwood Initiative for Friendship," a project to plant approximately 3,000 dogwood trees throughout Japan.
Akashicho used to be a foreign settlement, and is a place closely related to the United States, with the United States Mission to the United States established for 16 years from 1874 (1874).
Based on the history of these districts, this project donated 20 dogwood trees and planted trees on St. Luke Street and Akashicho Green Road (see the left figure).
That's an explanation.
I see, I had read the explanation of the United States and dogwood at Hibiya Park, but I didn't know that it was newly planted on St. Luke Street and Akashicho Green Road.
I can't wait for the spring that dogwood will entertain us with white flowers (actually a Gakugaku).
According to the calendar, it's already spring.
The history walk
around St. Luke's International Hospital will be fun.
On the premises of St. Luke's International Hospital, a monument to the site of the U.S. Embassy and a monument of the 13-striped star-striped flags were displayed.
You can also see the related monuments in the porch on the second floor of the St. Luke's Tower.
The surrounding area is the birthplace of the mission school, so you can see the monuments of the Women's Academy, Meiji Gakuin University, and the Kaigan Girls' School, the predecessor of Aoyama Gakuin University.
The photo shows an academic study of the traces of Henry Falls' residence in the planting and his fingerprints in front of St. Luke's Tower and his achievements in publishing it to the British scientific journal Nature.
Nearby is Mr. Shiose, the best bun shop in Japan.
On the way back to Tsukiji Station, you will also purchase cakes at the newly opened "Ginza Senbikiya Tsukiji Store" opposite daily sports.
If you are a little tired, we also recommend delicious Japanese tea and sweets with fish riverbank famous tea.
Personally, I prefer a cup
near the out-of-market market, such as Tenbaku and Takeno.
Enjoy meals 
and shopping
around Akashicho and Tsukiji.
