It wasn't just a stone! The identity of the stone wall remaining in Tsukuda Park
Hello. I'm Hanes, an active correspondent.
Recently, the heat has eased, and the chances of going out have gradually increased.
However, there are still many days when the sun is still worrisome, and I often stop by a park full of shade.
The other day, I took a walk around Tsukuda Park again. Did you know that there is such a fine stone wall in Chuo-ku?
This stone wall, last month's article, "What is the modern prison headwater" Hitoshishojo "?" This is when I saw the ruins of Ishikawajima Lighthouse introduced from the side and the back side.
You often pass in front of the ruins of Ishikawajima Lighthouse, but some may have never turned to the back.
And the identity of this stone wall, which was arranged in Chuo-ku unintentionally, is that when Tokyo renovated the right bank of the Nihonbashi River in 1985, Kijibashi (Kijibashi / now Hitotsubashi 2-chome, Chiyoda-ku) A part of the stone wall found near Kudan Minami 1-chome!
The name of the pheasant bridge is derived from the fact that Ieyasu Tokugawa surrounded his favorite pheasant in order to enjoy the envoy of Korea.
On the signboards in Tsukuda Park, Tokugawa shogunate began construction of the second phase of Edo Castle in Keicho 10 (1605), and the collection and transportation of stone for stone walls in Edo Castle and moats was carried out by 31 daimyo in China, Shikoku and KyushuIzu Peninsula.
I looked at the stone wall in Tsukuda Park from various angles, but I couldn't find such a crest or landmark....
Next time I would like to observe the stone again!
(Because it is a nature-rich area, mosquitoes are now occurring. If you go for a walk or walk, be careful of mosquitoes! )
However, there were many stones arranged around the stone wall that could clearly see the arrow holes.
When you go sightseeing in Tsukuda, why don't you think about this stone wall and stone in the Edo period?
About the stone walls of Edo Castle cut out from the East Coast of Izu Peninsula, Mr. yaz has introduced in detail so far, including the article "Funairi Hori Blog for Transporting Edo Castle Ishigaki (2019.06.04)" in July this year.
As mentioned in the above article, many stones were cut out from Higashiizu-cho and transported to Edo.
Once I've been driving on the East Coast of Izu Peninsula, I remember seeing information boards and pamphlets about the history of this quarry in towns and tourist information centers.
Although it may not be as well known as Edo Castle and moat stones, the following article introduces the historic sites of Izu Peninsula related to Chuo-ku.
