Walk along the ruins of Tepposu River!
This project is also to walk along the ruins of a river that once existed in Chuo-ku.
And the river is the gunpowder river. The Tepposu River diverted near the current Minato 2-chome on the Sumida River, flowed through Akashicho, and joined the Akashibori on the Tsukiji River.
Gunsubashi, Kobashi, Mitobashi, Urahoribashi, and Shinminatobashi were bridged over the Gunsugawa River.
The Gun Sugawa River was reclaimed by 1929 as a reconstruction project after the earthquake, and is now the Gun Sudori Street.
Start the diversion point of the Sumida River and aim for the ruins of Akashibori on the Tsukiji River.
However, before that, I prayed for the success of walking around the city this time and visited Tepposu Inari Shrine.
The diversion point from the Sumida River should be discovered immediately.
I did it. The diversion point from Sumida River is Chuo Ward
It was Minatomachi Daiichi Children's Amusement Park. On the Sumida River
It rises on the opposite bank of River City 21 in Tsukuda.
Condominiums.
There was Shiomi guardian of children and travelers next to the children's amusement park.
According to Shiomi guardian of children and travelers's explanation board, "To Meiji period
A strange phenomenon occurred in this area, and from the bottom of the river
A single stone statue, a large number of human bones and tooth bones come out.
I did it. The human bones are located in the Kaikoin of both countries, and stone statues.
The teeth are buried in this land and memorialized."
There was a description.
Even now, the shrine is very cleanly managed.
It is gathering the faith of the neighbors.
I felt it.
The Tepposu River is at this point (now Minato 3-chome).
Aiming for Akashicho by crossing with Tepposu Street
I'm going south.
After passing Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, it's Akashicho.
(This photo shows the intersection of Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge from Akashicho.
I photographed it. When I entered Akashicho, I saw a view.
It will spread. Obviously, the streets and parcels are wide
It will be. This is because Akashicho started in 1868.
It was a foreign settlement until 23rd year.
That's why. Therefore, after this, the mission will be
The birthplace of the school continued.
This is a monument to Aoyama Gakuin Memorial.
This is the birthplace of Joshisei Gakuin.
It is the birthplace of Meiji Gakuin.
And it is the birthplace of fingerprint research.
There is a Shinsui-Koen Park beside the sidewalk.
I can walk very comfortably.
And after St. Luke Street, you will see Akatsuki Park in Chuo Ward. I arrived at the site of Akashibori.
The ruins of Akashibori are now Akatsuki Park. In this city walk, traces of the Tepposu River could not be found. However, when I entered Akashicho from Minato, I noticed that the parcels of the city were clearly wider. Even today, Akashicho was a cityscape that made me feel that it was a foreign settlement.
