A town with attractive osmanthus blooms

You notice the gentle fragrance of the cool autumn sky. This year, on the grounds of Nihonbashi Hie-jinja Shrine, "Kinsai", which has "unchanging charm" in flower language, was blooming.

Nihonbashi Hie-jinja Shrine is said to have been built during the Kanei era as Sanno resting place of portable shrines. It is an oasis nestled in the Nihonbashikabutocho and Kayabacho districts since Edo.

By the way, when you cross the Heisei Dori and head toward Nihonbashi River, you will see the armor bridge. The bridge was built in 1872. This was the "handing of armor." You can see how the storehouses and cargo ships of the wholesaler come and go at the Edo Famous Zoukai.
