Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

Hello. This is a new correspondent, Hanes.
The other day, when I took a walk in Kodemmacho, I stopped by Minobu Betsuin.
The Nichiren Shonin seated statue (Tangible Cultural Property designated by Tokyo) whose eyes are made of crystals is famous.
Actually, there are a lot of other interesting things.
Therefore, I would like to introduce the charm of Minobu Betsuin, which makes you want to stop by in two separate sessions.



This time, I'll cover "Daikokuten Oil Spilling".
At the Flower Festival, sweet tea is poured into Historical Buddha, and you are here in Daikokuten, where you can oil anytime throughout the year....
I was worried about it, and looked it up



[I say] ※There are various theories.
In Fushimi, Kyoto, there is a town called "Aburake Town", which in the past, an oil merchant accidentally poured oil on a stone statue on the roadside.
Since then, there has been a legend that business has prospered greatly.
Mrs. Shige of Showa's famous actor Kazuo Hasegawa from Fushimi is deeply dependent on Shinto and Buddha.
Shortly after the war, I accidentally dreamed of this oiled Tenjin as a dream.
I was told by patron saint of academics that I would worship in Tokyo and connect with many people.
head priest Nichijo Fujii of Minobu Betsuin at the time.
I decided to worship at Minobu Betsuin.

[Losss]
Prosperity of business, good luck, safe delivery



There are not many shrines and temples that worship the oiled Daikokuten even when viewed nationwide.
When you come near, why don't you pray for Daikokuten with oil?

It is rosemary sea, which escalates "gifts and enjoy yourself".

　

For three days from December 26 (Wednesday) to 28 (Friday), the annual `` Yagenbori no Narimachi, Ode-koichi '' was held in the neighborhood of Yagenbori Fudoin in Higashinihombashi. It was crowded with many people.

This is a performance at Edo Dai-Kagura Maruichi Senoshachu.

　

This is the second time in three parts.

On the 26th of the first day, Ogoma is fired twice at 13:00 and 17:00 because Ogoma is fired in between.

On the 27th and 28th, there are three performances at 13:00, 15:00, and 17:00, one time is about 45 minutes.

We interviewed the first event on the 26th of the first day.

I was taken care of by Edo Dai-Kagura Maruichi Senosha, Maruichi Seno and the 13th Iemoto.

The image shows the flag of "Edo Dai-Kagura". The following "" is the word of Iemoto.

"(I'll play here in Yagenbori) for 15 years, every year."

　

This is the second part of the performance of the day.

　

(Iemoto, I use a microphone.)

"Soon Yagenbori Fudoin, there is a performance of Edo Dai-Kagura going down the stairs.

For three days from today, Toshinoichi sells a lot of things, so please enjoy the Edo Dai-Kagura, which has a 400-year tradition while shopping.

The flute on the left is Senwaka, the drum is Kasen, the drum is Senkichi on the left is Senkichi, the right is Sentora, and the right is Iemoto with a microphone.

"Let's hear from the festival music of Edo Dai-Kagura, which has become an annual event.

First of all, it is called a stall, and it is a stall music that hits step by step.

Following this festival music, driving stalls, Shoden, Kamakura, 4-chome (Shichome), we will enter the stalls again. ]

"Festival music changes from a stall to a quiet song, a song called Seiten. ・・・』

"Obayashi is a song called Kamakura, another quiet song from Holy Ten."

"From Kamakura, it will change to 4-chome, a song with a tempo of the festival music.

In this song called 4-chome, there is a joint between shimedaiko.

From here, each other's taiko drum and tapping have changed.'

"The festival music we are enjoying, the last song, the lifting stall. ・・・』

☆　　☆　　☆　　☆　　☆　　☆　　☆　　☆

"Yes, thank you.

The old city, Edo Dai-Kagura, started today and rushed to cheer. First of all, I heard the festival music.

This time, let's watch the lion dance and throw away all the bad luck of this year in order to drop everyone's trouble.

Kotobuki lion dance begins.

Since the shamisen enters and I haven't decided who will do what, who will hit the drum, who will blow the flute, what will do?'

(It is interesting to send and interact with Iemoto and the performers.)

(Iemoto is nominated) Grandpa, I don't do it because my hands don't move. I'll do it if there are more customers. It's a lie. You can really do anything. I'm a family member.

"... In the Edo period, the Shogun, the lion dance that only did the daimyo residence, and still in Nihonbashi, the New Year's Day is doing Kadotsuki.

Let's take a look at the lion dance first. ・It's Kotobuki lion dance.

(Here, Sentora-san, the head of the tree [Kigashira: the sound of hitting at the beginning of the clap] is weak, and strikes "Kin" again. Rosmari received it as "directing". Sentora, I also make mistakes in acrobatics. It's like "boke" in comics, and I'm very good. )

"I'm going to see you. It really makes me laugh. ・I've been there for 15 years, that's it. ・・・』

"Celebration-thirth-, good--"

The lion is Senma, and the shamisen is Senkichi, who was hitting a taiko earlier.

Please look from left to right. In addition, all images can be enlarged by clicking.

☆　　☆　　☆　　☆　　☆　　☆　　☆　　☆

"... Let's take a look at the acrobatics here.

There are wonderful acrobatics in Japan as well. Who will do that acrobatics today? 3, oh, 3.

・・Do you remember? At the end of the 20th century, there were people who built two houses in this acrobatics.

On TV, "Congratulations!" That's amazing, they're two million when the highest galaxies are. That's 20 minutes. A house is also built. But don't worry. Today, I got 20 million from Yagenbori fudoson Toshinoichi Preservation Society. (Lie, Sentora-san) Let's go, familiar acrobatics. The reason why it stands out is that the umbrella itself spreads out and stands out. And I turn it on the umbrella. ・・ ・ First, turn the cone (mari) to fit the home round. ・・・』

From the left, Senma-san, Kasen-san and Sentora-san are lined up.

"Well, today we will communicate with our customers and what to do, so we will take the cone we have done this time to our customers, so please let them go to the child's umbrella. I'll catch it well. ・'.'

"Yes, nice control. Congratulations! ・・・』

　

"Now, catch the ball on the umbrella. ・・ ・ "One person releases a cone on the umbrella, and another performer receives the cone with an umbrella.

"Would you like to increase one more of them? ・Let's go 3. (It's impossible, the performer) I'll do it even if it's impossible. (I can't do it) I'll go there in good timing."

"Yes. (I was able to do it) (great success) ... Yes, it's faster, and it's still impossible. I've stopped. Yes, thank you.'

"Yes, this time, ring. I'll turn it.

"Yes, I'll turn it." "What a day!"

"If you turn well, your home will improve your money. Yes, let's go.'

"It's like this if you don't have a bad money. Oh, it's rare, I went. Do you want to stop? Yes. Senma will do the following. (Sentora,) That's the only thing I've done for 15 years. This is the only one that can be done in the sixth year. Yes, let's go. ・・・』

"... When you squeeze the umbrella facing the side, this is "Shiguregasa", when you look like a ripple on the moon, return to the original place where the ripples appear on the moon, and return the ring to the air. It's okay! Jump! I don't have a ceiling today, so let's try the highest one. Well, I'm slowly turning around the umbrella. The ring that rotates slowly is small one spin on the way, one spin small, and "Arakusa is the character of" "". When the large turn goes well, the ring gradually sleeps. Well, I'm going to sleep. Yes, this is Matsudo's bicycle race.

"Yes, I get up gradually and go well into the black place in the middle, and if I don't enter, I will pass through. Do you want to do it? Well, it's a great success. Good, indeed.'

・・The introduction will be followed by the second part.

Hello. This is a new correspondent, Hanes.
Everyone planning to take the Chuo-ku Tourism Test, is your study progressing smoothly?
When it gets cold, it's hard to walk around the town.
In my case, on a warm day, I don't hesitate to visit historical sites and unfamiliar areas in the city.

By the way, the other day, we sent a river / bridge, Haiku / Kawayanagi, song / catchphrase as a measure for sightseeing certification in Chuo-ku.
From this time, I will introduce the route edition in two parts!

As with the river and bridge edition, for those who are not from Tokyo and do not use public transportation very much, this is the case.
I think it's a type of problem that makes you feel weak.
But don't worry!
If you hold the points, if you are not afraid of the route, you will be able to laugh and enter the test.



There are four points to keep in mind.
①JR East Line name and station name
②Toei Subway Line and Station Name
③Route name and station name of Tokyo Metro
④Year of opening
The route section (1) explains 1 and 2, and the route section (2) explains 3 and 4.

①JR East Line name and station name
There are only 2 JR lines that pass Chuo-ku, and only 3 JR stations!
JR Sobu Line: Bakurocho Station, Shin-Nihonbashi Station
JR Keiyo Line: Hatchobori Station

How about it?
If you divide this way, don't you feel like you can learn the route?

②Toei Subway Line and Station Name
There are only three Toei Subway lines that pass through Chuo-ku!
That is the Toei Shinjuku Line, Toei Oedo Line, Toei Asakusa Line
The number of stations on each line is 2, 3, and 5 in order.
Toei Shinjuku Line: Hamacho Station, Bakuro-Yokoyama Station
Toei Oedo Line: Tsukishima Station, Kachidoki Station, Tsukiji Market Station
Toei Asakusa Line: Higashi Nihonbashi Station, Ningyocho Station, Nihombashi Station, Takaracho Station, Higashi-Ginza Station

The Toei Asakusa Line runs to the station with Higashi in Chuo-ku.
By the way, the Toei Asakusa Line is also used when going to Haneda Airport.

I'm too good at route problems, so I challenged with no mark in last year's certification.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find the answer to the route problem that was questioned, and I was inadvertently wrong.
For this reason, this year we are taking measures for routes using the methods introduced in the future.

①Paste the route map in places you usually see (refrigerator, washroom, etc.)
②Look at the route map during commuting (because the transfer route information is often displayed)
③Memorize the announcement in the car (input "● Line changes to the line")
④One person who is not a Yamanote Line game ●● Play a line game (effective for routes with a large number of stations!)
⑤Actually use the station (regardless of whether or not you have a ride)
⑥Make a word card (station name on the front, line name on the back)



If you keep the tips on the route and remember it, think it's not scary, so let's survive!

Happy new year
It's been less than a month before the Chuo-ku sightseeing certification. Everyone who takes the test is finally in driving mode. I will continue to take on the challenge as I did last year.
After carefully reading "Chuo-ku Monoshiri Encyclopedia" and reviewing the past 1,000 questions, I found that there were my weaknesses in questions such as "Historic buildings" (p.152-153), "Tourism Event Information" (p.186), "Chuo-ku Machikado Exhibition Hall List" (p.187).
At first glance, I went to the site.
Today's course takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes on foot and by train.

　During the construction, the school building cannot be confirmed.

2.Historic buildings, Tokyo, Japan

It's rosemary sea, covering "gifts and I enjoy myself" to Eleven Nine.

For three days from December 26 (Wednesday) to 28 (Friday), the annual `` Yagenbori Nari-no-ichi, Ode-koichi '' was held in the neighborhood of Yagenbori Fudoin in Higashinihombashi. It was crowded with many people.

"Toshinoichi" is a city that sells New Year's goods such as Kadomatsu and Shimekazari.

In the Edo period, year-old cities were held in various places, but the last one was Yagenbori.

However, only the old city of Yagenbori and Hagoita city of Asakusa remain today.

In addition to this, "Odekoichi (it seems to be called Odekoichi)" sponsored by "Higashinihombashi Yagenbori Shopping Association" is also held, and clothing and daily necessities are sold very cheaply. At the same time, there are about 100 stalls.

If you are not here, please come and visit us a year later.

The so-called "Chindon-ya" was also enlivening the mood of the city while distributing flyers from Odeko City.

Before 1:00 pm on the first day, 26th, Rosmari came under the stairs of Yagenbori Fudoin.

The purpose is ...

To talk to Edo Dai-Kagura Maruichi Maruichi Senoshachu, Maruichi Seno Maruichi, the 13th Iemoto (pictured above).

And to cover the Edo Dai-Kagura.

On the 26th of the first day, Ogoma is fired twice at 13:00 and 17:00 because Ogoma is fired in between.

On the 27th and 28th, there are three performances at 13:00, 15:00, and 17:00, one time is about 45 minutes.

About two years ago, at the time of the interview of "Kamikaiki" by Eitaro Sohonho in Nihonbashi.

In Eitaro, Maruichi Senoshanaka's New Year's gate is being held, and I introduced a little bit.

Click here for the article.

⇒　　/archive/2017/01/post-3951.html

It has been two years since I promised further introductions.

Moreover, this is an introduction of the main subject, Maruichi Edo Dai-Kagura, Senoshanaka, who waited in a double room.

Edo Dai-Kagura...

It is said that Dai-Kagura originated in the Heian period. It was the Edo period.

The reason for this is "Ise visit". The common people want to go to Ise-jingu Shrine once in a lifetime.

However, if you live far away, travel expenses are expensive and day-consuming. 15 days one way from Edo.

Therefore, the priests and children of Ise-jingu Shrine and Atsuta Jingu Shrine, which had also gathered religions, carry a lion head and travel to various places.

I purified and handed out talisman. Instead of worshiping directly, that is, Daikagura ...

From here it is said that Dai-Kagura was written separately.

Maruichi Seno Shrine ...

It is one of the representative names of Dai-Kagura since the Edo period. I belong to the Atsuta school.

This group went to Edo with the permission of Atsuta Jingu Shrine in 1664 (Kanbun 4), and went around large and small mansions to "exorcise".

Five years later, in 1669, it was offered to the Shogun's family in the garden of Fukiage, Edo Castle.

From here, the Edo business trip became an annual event, and eventually moved to Edo.

Today, he is very active in various stages, events, and overseas performances.

In addition, during the New Year, there is also a traditional town around the Nihonbashi area.

・・・ The introduction of the performance on the day will be followed by the middle and second part.

Hello. This is a new correspondent, Hanes.
This time, we will take up the landfill of rivers in the final round of [Chuo-ku Tourism Certification Measures] River and Bridges.
(Click here for previous articles → (1), (2), (3))

Due to many rivers and diggings, the current Chuo-ku has been called the "city of water" since the Edo period.
However, over the years, rivers have been reclaimed, and their remnants can be known from the information boards and the remaining main pillars.
When and what was landfilled, and how the town changed?...
If you remember such things like 5W1H, you can connect events with each other in a causal relationship.
The history of the development of Chuo-ku will be easier to come to mind.


(↑ Page 1 of the countermeasure note at the time of last year's test inspection)

The events that triggered river reclamation can be broadly divided into the following four categories.
Earthquake reconstruction, war reconstruction, Tokyo Olympics, etc.

■Earthquake reconstruction
The Irifune River, the Tepposu River, and the Nishibori Ru River (Isecho Hori) were reclaimed at this early stage.

■Reconstruction of war
At that time, there were no vehicles or fuels carrying surplus soil or debris.
Therefore, rivers that are not very necessary as waterways are reclaimed with residual soil and debris to create land and create land.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government's debris disposal measures were implemented to sell it and generate operating costs.
That was the landfill, and the northern half of the outer moat River and the Sanjuken River disappeared at this time.

■Tokyo Olympics (1964, 18th)
In preparation for the Olympics, highways, subways, and arterial roads were urgently developed.
Therefore, the Tsukiji River and Kaede River were reclaimed, and the capital height centered on Route 1 (4.5 km between Kyobashi and Shibaura) was constructed, and the Tsukuda River was reclaimed by the bridge of Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge (1964). Was.
However, because it was reclaimed too quickly, it was impossible to drain rainwater.
Therefore, pumping stations of the Tokyo Metropolitan Sewerage Bureau were set up in Hamacho, Nakasu, and Hakozaki-cho.

<Aside>
The torch relay course is 1.5km between Kiyosu Bridge and Kayaba Bridge.
It was 2.0 km between Kayababashi and Kajibashi.

You don't have to remember in particular about river reclamation, but you don't have to worry about it.
If you know it, you will surely enjoy walking around the town.
