Reference point Mayiko.jpg DSCN1066 - Copy. jpg

It's a syntax.

A stamp engraved to measure the height difference in the early Meiji era. It seems that there are still about 40 places in Tokyo.

At first, 150 places were installed. It is a place where everything will remain permanently.

However, sir. 。 。 ?

Please stand along with the cherry blossom viewing.

It is derived from a canal that existed from the early Edo period to the vicinity of the Kyobashi Police Museum to the Kamejima River until after the Pacific War. It was opened. It was not reclaimed.

Collaboration of Tsutaya in Tsukiji and Takatora Hamacho

[Silver] March 15, 2018 16:00

"Chuo-ku Machikado Exhibition Hall" currently has 22 exhibition halls, and it is a very meaningful and study exhibition hall that introduces the area and its long-established stores. At present, the exhibition hall stamp rally is being held, and I am with the Shochiku Otani Library in Higashiginza.

I went to Tsutaya Shoten in Tsukiji's "Noren / Japanese lantern / Drawing Exhibition Hall" in the photo below.

 At Tsutaya in Tsukiji, he told us that the cut bags sold by the store were written on a drawstring bag made by Takatora in Nihonbashihamacho.

What will happen to business if you don't have a scale in Edo period?

[Shubo's Ten Hands] March 15, 2018 09:00

Zhubo's ten hands 3.jpgDSCN1035.JPGThe ruins of Edo Libraza

Libra is a business establishment created by Edo shogunate to unify the standards for scales.

 

It continued from 1653 (1653) to 1875 (1875). Edo was manufactured, distributed and repaired by the guardian family, Kyoto was manufactured, distributed and repaired by the Shinto family, and the guardian was in charge of 33 eastern countries.

 

In the eastern country, they couldn't use, manufacture, or give their surnames other than the guardian. It was so protected by the Shogunate.

 

The Great Fire of the Meiryaku era (1657) occurred and as many as 100,000 people died, and the central keep of Edo Castle was burned down. The guardian Libra Factory was also burned down, and the wood of the material was burned down. There must have been a lot of orders that could not be handled among them. The guardian said that the wood of the material (a tree that is sufficiently dried and not distorted or deformed) was stockpiled in the suburbs of Edo in preparation for a fire. If you are prepared, you don't have to worry about it.

It's right next to Nihonbashi Takashimaya. Please come along with your purchase.
