I went to Tsukuda!

[Hikoharu Co., Ltd.] October 31, 2017 14:00

The weather was good for the first time in a long time after a typhoon, so I hanged and went to Tsukuda.

Today's Tsukuda originates from Ishikawajima and Tsukuda Island in the Edo period.

Today, I was hanging around the former Tsukuda Island and the current Tsukuda 1-chome.

As you all know, Tsukuda Island follows village headman Magoemon Mori in Tsukuda Village, Nishinari-gun, Settsu Kuni.

It is an island built by fishermen who descended to Edo.

Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine began with the separation of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine in Tsukudamura, Nishinari-gun, Settsu-kuni in 1646.

Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine's ceramic flats and basins are one of the highlights.

The flat amount is due to the dyeing brush of Prince Arisugawa Miyanobori.

In addition, there are sailing boats and scenery of clam digging in the open space of the basin.

The scenery of Tsukuda Island is carved.

On the back of the basin of the basin of the basin, it is engraved with "1841 Ox New Year Shirakogumi".

Both Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine pottery flats and basins are registered in the ward Tangible Cultural Property.

In addition, there is a Gosei Kawayanagi and Mizutani Ryotei monument on the grounds of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, which is said to be "a soft and hard".

The phrase "human heart" is engraved.

After passing through the torii gate of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine and walking toward the Sumida River, you will see the stone monument at the site of the Tsukuda Island ferryboat.

I'll come in. The ferry was abolished in 1964 with the completion of Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge.

Nearby, three Tsukudani shops that have continued since the Edo period are still open.

Next to the ruins of Tsukuda Island Ferry Terminal, there is the Tsukuda Machikado Exhibition Hall, a lion head and portable shrine.

You can see it.

If you look at the former Ishikawajima area with Sumiyoshi Kobashi on your right, you can see the ruins of Ishikawajima Lighthouse.

You can do it. In addition, you can see the Sumiyoshi sluice gate seriously.

Sluice gates are usually open for entry and exit of ships, but during storm surges and tsunamis.

It is said that it will be closed to protect the lives and property of local residents.

As I walked through Tsukuda, there were several active wells.

And it's Kobashi Tsukuda. In Tsukuda Kobashi, the pillar of the large banner used at the festival of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine is corrupted.

It is buried at the bottom of the river to prevent it. On the white sign, "This place is

It was allowed to be built by Tokugawa shogunate in the late Edo period (1798).

The pillars and hugs of the large banner are buried, so you can enter and dig up.

Don't do it. It was written as Sumiyoshi Tsukuda.

And the last photo shows "River City 21" towering behind Tsukuda Kobashi.

This is a group of high-rise apartments. Do you match this emotional cityscape of Tsukuda?

Don't you do it? I didn't know well. ・・・

Lighting of electric streetlights 135 years ago

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] October 28, 2017 09:00

gaitog005.JPG

The first light in Japan was on November 1, 1882, in Ginza, Japan.

It was just 135 years ago ().

gaitog004.JPG

At that time, many people gathered to see this "arc lamp" at a glance at the brightness, and it seems that it became a famous place in Ginza.

gaitog001.JPG

In commemoration of "Japan's first electric streetlight construction site", the Ginza Memorial Light was built on October 1, 1956 by people involved.

After that, this commemorative light was rebuilt several times, and the current one was restored last September.

gaitog000.jpg

The place is at the Ginza 2-chome intersection where Chuo-dori and Ginza Marronnier Street intersect (red place in the map above).

The four stores that make up this intersection are the top four brands of Bulgarian, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, and Cartier.

The wall facing Ginza Marronnier Street of Cartier's shop is fitted with an "Electrical Light Pole Monument".

Sugimori Shrine Bettara City 2017 Lottery

[Silver] October 23, 2017 14:00

Sugimori Shrine has been in Fukutoku since the Edo period. It has been worshiped as the god of business. Every year in October, the Ebisu Shrine Festival is held grandly.

The shrine is home to shrine office, Kagura Hall, basin and torii gate, and is registered in Tangible Cultural Property, Chuo-ku.

 Next to the torii gate, the names of the shrine's pupils are listed, and you can see that famous Nihonbashi companies such as Mitsukoshi are worshiped.

 In Kagura Hall, there was a musical accompaniment celebrating the festival. I'd like you to pass it on to future generations.

 Sugimori Shrine is also famous as a place for the lottery performances that became popular during the Edo period, and the "Tomizuka Monument" tells the prosperity of the time on the premises.

That's why we distributed a golden "rich lottery" embroidered with "rich".

 I wish you all the best.

 

 

Walking through the streets that appear in rakugo

[Dharma] October 22, 2017 14:00

Ryukanbashi 2.jpgRyukanbashi, which connects Ryuka-cho (currently Uchikanda) and the former Hon-Shiroganemachi (currently Honishi-cho), is a very rare bridge of Japan's first reinforced concrete traft bridge built in 1923. It is said that it is derived from the fact that there was a house of the former Shogunate monk "Ryukan Inoue".

 

Rakugo "Straw Doll" The daughter Okuma of Nukaya in Kanda Ryuka-cho, sold herself to a giroya in trouble eating, but tricked her money from a monk named Sainen who wanted to contract. The grudged Sainen boiled the straw dolls in oil and cursed the bear. "If you have a straw doll, you have to nail." "No, Okuma is the daughter of Nukaya."...It's one of the stories.

 

 

Now, when you go to Edo-dori St. from Tokiwa Bridge, which is the restoration work, it is a diagonal angle, Muromachi 3-chome "Honishicho Juken Store Ruins". Currently, the construction of a super-high-rise office building is underway, and at the exit No. 4 of Shin-Nihonbashi Station at the intersection, there is an explanation board of "Nagasakiya Ruins".

 

Takaramachi 21.jpgThe story of the rakugo "Nagasaki no Akahan" begins when the father of the neighboring land "Kanafukicho" (currently Honishi-cho) Kanataya accounts for his son. The mother's affection for her son, married to a large store in Nagasaki with the care of her uncle, and her father returned home with red paper and married a daughter of Hatchobori, and the bride of Nagasaki hides herself in a beggar and arrives safely in Edo, giving back the sin of the checkpoint....Set in the middle of Edo, it is a feature-length story of a humanistic story with fantasy and reality.

 

 

From Juken Store, walk from Ukiyo-e Koji, Choledo Muromachi, Takarada Ebisu Shrine, Sugimori Shrine, Sanko Shindo in Nihonbashi Horidome in about 15 minutes.

New Ukiyokoji 1.jpgTadashi Sanko Inari. JPG


It is a seat on the Hyakkawa stage, a kaiseki restaurant located in Nihonbashi Ukiyokoji until the early Meiji era.

 

Rakugo "Hyakukawa" I came to visit Hyakubei from the countryside and introduced Chizuka-ya in Kayamachi. The new Hyakubei is on the second floor with a nail, saying that it is a rough riverbank. Hyakubei, who has a terrible accent, is Chimpunkanpun for customers. Hyakubei, who was sent by a customer for messenger, brought "Surgeon Kamoike (Kameji) Genbayashi-sensei" by mistake for "Jobanzu's poet character (Kamemoji)". Both professors lived near the path of Sanko Inari. You're out of work, "How much is it?" If everyone pulls out, Ochi can laugh with a local accent, saying, "It's a turtle, a seagull, a tant, only one character." It's a story created for the promotion of Hyakukawa.

[Kra-san] October 18, 2017 12:00

The Yaku ancestor patron Festival was held on October 17 at Yaku ancestor patron in Fukutoku no Mori, Nihonbashi, hosted by the Tokyo Pharmaceutical Affairs Association. Many pharmaceutical wholesalers lined up from the early Edo period, and Nihonbashi Honmachi, known as the "medicine town", is still headquartered by many pharmaceutical companies.

The festival originated in 1908 in Meiji 41 (1908) when the Tokyo Pharmaceutical Trade and Commerce Association (currently Tokyo Pharmaceutical Association) welcomed the spirit of the god of medicine from Gojo Ten Shrine (Taito Ward) and went there. .

At the general worship, a large number of office workers from the neighborhood attended, and several people were purified by Miyaji before wishing for sound health. After worshiping, the "Worship Award" was handed out, and a special stage was set up next to it, dedicated "Festival Bayashi".

In addition, at the Showa Yaku Trade Building, where the nearby association is located, the soup flour of the long-established `` Higetsudo '' in Kofune-cho is served, and the annual Fukubiki is also held, and prizes are given to those who have been assigned to the "vice" "Fukubukuro" was distributed.
