Question 34 "Bettara City", which is held every year on October 19 and 20, is an autumn feature of Chuo-ku.
It is said to have originated in the city that sold offering, an event held on October 20.
So, which of the following events were learned to take place on October 20?

A. 19th night lecture Tori-no-ichi Fair U. Kayaba-cho Yakushi Pilgrimage E. Ebisu Lecture

For those who have studied or taken a walk about Chuo-ku a little, the answer itself is not so difficult and can be guided? I thought it.

A photo of the past Betara city in my smartphone.

There's a huge Japanese lantern in the upper right.
It says "Ebisu Shrine" in it.

"Bedara-shi" started at "Ebisu-ko", which was held in front of "Takarada Ebisu Shrine" in Otemmacho.

By the way, what is "Ebisu-ko"?

Ebisu-sama, a commercial and agricultural paper, along with lucky items such as image of deity, hammer, hanging sea bream, and Kirisansho.

I wished for business prosperity.

Edamame, when I went to Bettara City, I bought Kirisansho.

This was also the offering of Ebisu-ko, so it was sold there.
I remember the refreshing flavor of Sansho was pleasant.

That's why the answer is d.

Yeah.

Why was Edamame "worry" about this problem?

B. No Rooster Market is also held at Matsushima Shrine in Ningyocho in Chuo-ku.

(The photo shows the New Year's Day of some year.)

Previously, a senior correspondent, Shiba Inu, took up about Tori-no-ichi Fair.

C. The explanation of Kayaba-cho Yakushi pilgrimage is described in detail by dividing one page with plenty of official text.

The statue of Yakushi Nyorai at Chisen-in in Kayabacho was gathering the religion of the common people of Edo.

Ueki City was also held in fair on the 8th and 12th of every month, and it was very lively.

(This is a statue of Jizo Bodhisattva standing in the precincts of Chisen-in Temple where Yakushi, Kayabacho was located)

But I had never heard of the nineteenth night course.
I decided to check it out.

[Koyasugami]

The god of child care. As can be seen from the fact that the name already appeared in the article on July 11, 876, Jogan 18 (876), it was widely practiced in various places with ancient religions.
At present, there are many things linked to other religions such as Koyasu Kannon, Koyasu Jizo, and Koyasu Yahata.
In eastern Japan, there is a place called Koyasu-ko, where women gather and worship Koyasu-sama. Since it gathers on the 19th of the month, it is also called the 19th night course or the 19th night.
(From the description of the encyclopedia of the Britannica International University Encyclopedia)

I see. It was the "Lecture" of the faith of Koyasu.
And the date is covered by the 19th when "Betara City" is held!
It might have been perfect in a sense to make it a "good choice" (laughs).
・・・ And is there a place in Chuo-ku dedicated to Koyasujin?
I couldn't find Edamame because I didn't study.
In Tokyo, there seem to be some shrines named "Koyasu".
I'd like to check out the shrine's enshrined deity during a walk.

That's why it was a problem that had a little review of "the religion of the Edo period".
If you delve into the problem that you solved, there are many discoveries.

You don't want to miss what you're wondering or getting caught.
