I'm crossing Showa-dori.

Cross the sidewalk that can be seen in the center.

Showa-dori crosses Chuo-dori at the Shimbashi intersection ahead.

In front of that, there is the Shiodome Ruins, which was introduced in the first and second installments of this series.

Also, in the final episode of this series, we will return to the pedestrian bridge above the Shiodome archeological site and explain it.

If you go behind this image, Showa-dori crosses the Nihonbashi River in Edobashi and eventually leads to Ozeki in Taito-ku.

Showa-dori is a road that was built as a reconstruction project following the Great Kanto Earthquake.

Danshobashi Kyobashi 2.3-chome to Hatchobori 3.4-chome

Shiraoibashi Kyobashi 3-chome to Ginza 1-chome

Shinpukuji Temple Bridge Ginza 1-chome to Shintomi 1-chome

From here, about 30 meters north, until the end of the Meiji era, Momijigawa from northeast, Kyobashigawa from northwest, Sakuragawa flowing east, and Sanjikenbori flowing southwest I was crossing.

Danjobashi is built on the Kaede River near this intersection, Shiraoibashi is built on the Kyobashi River, and Shinpukuji Temple is built on the Sanjutsubori. Was.

Mitsuhashi is already shown in Edosho, Bushu Toshima-gun, which is said to have been created in Kanei 9 (1632), but there was no entry of the bridge name, and there were various changes to the bridge name to late Tokugawa shogunate.

Shinpukuji Temple Bridge at the end of the Meiji era and Shiraoi Bridge in 1959 were all abolished by reclaiming rivers, and Dansho Bridge became its current form in 1962 due to highway construction.

The ruins of the bridge that spanned the three rivers of Mitsuhashi

During the Edo period, the Kaedegawa, Kyobashi, Sakuragawa, and Sanjumabori merged and flowed around here.

The Kaede River had a Dansho Bridge, the Kyobashi River had a white fish bridge, and the Sanjumabori had a Shinpukuji Temple Bridge, so these were collectively called Mitsuhashi.

On the third floor, there is a Chuo-ku Tourism Association.

The explanation board of the ruins of Mitsuhashi is located in the middle of the road on the left.

It's opposite the Kyobashi Plaza.

On the right side of this building is Kyobashi Park.

In addition, the Chuo-ku Tourism Association will be introduced next time as an extra edition of this series.

The most eye-catching thing in Kyobashi Park is a large seal written as "Kyobashi Park"? The stone. (Please see the image at the beginning.)

It is a visual and better art that is placed lightly.

Kyobashi Park is a park that was developed during the reconstruction of the earthquake.

Concrete slides have been popular for a long time as they leave the remnants of those days.

However, the slide was replaced with a normal slide in 2011 because it did not meet the current "standards for playground equipment safety", such as the low side wall of the slide, and it was aging.

At present, "Ginza Niseiyanagi" is also planted.

Then, beside this Kyobashi Park, there is "LA BETTRA da Ochiai".

It is an Italian restaurant of Chef Tsutomu Ochiai, who is well known.

"LA BETTORA" means "canteen / kitchen" in Italian.

It's a good naming for Italian restaurants.

※　There is an explanation board in Kyobashi Park.

Ginza 1-chome 25-27 Area

In the past, near Shintomi 1-chome No. 1-1 and Ginza 1-26 on the north side of this area, the Kaede River flowing from the north, the Kyobashi River flowing from the west, and the Sanjumabori flowing to the southwest crossed.

The area was called "Mitsuhashi" because there were three bridges on each river line, Dansho Bridge, Shiraoi Bridge, and Shinpukuji Temple Bridge.

The Iji Riverbank was the name of the village on the riverbank near Mitsuhashi since the Edo period (Rizokuna: the name of the land customs), but by the Tokyo prefectural government promulgated in 1880 (Meiji 13) It has become the official name of the riverbank on the east bank extending south from Shinpukuji Temple Bridge to Tsukiji.

In the late Edo period, one of the three major dojos in Edo, the Shigakukan of the swordsman Shunzo Momoi of Kyoshinmei Ichiryu (Kyoshinmei Ichiryu) was set up, and in 1853, You can see "Shunzoi" at the southern end of the Jiji Riverbank in the "Oomiya Itagiri Ezu".

The riverbank on the east bank of Shinfukuji Bridge

The expressway extending from Shintomi-cho to Nihonbashi was the site of the former Kaede River, and the area where this river merged with the Kyobashi River, Sakuragawa River, and Sanjumabori was called Mitsuhashi.

The Iji Riverbank is the name of the riverbank located on the east bank of Shinpukuji Temple Bridge over Sanju-bori.

In the latter half of the Edo period, there was the Shigakukan, one of the three major dojos in Edo, by the swordsman Shunzo Momoi of Kagami Shinmei Chiryu.

Ginza 1-25 Kyobashi Park

Ginza 1-27-12 The first floor of the cabinet building is a bakery famous for bread that focuses on water and flour.

A product called "High-quality bread sticking to water" (1,000 yen including tax) won the food category of the 1st Chuo-ku recommended souvenir (Central tokyo Premium Selection).

The uniquely developed alkaline ionized water used in special preparation water exquisitely extracts umami ingredients such as Canadian finest flour, butter, fresh cream, honey, etc., as raw materials, and realizes a slight sweetness.

High-quality bread that is soft and soft to ears with fluffy and sticky texture.

It's Shinkinbashi.

This bridge is located at the easternmost tip of Ginza.

In the back of the right is the Kyobashi entrance of the capital Taka Toshin Beltway, a so-called interchange.

It seems that many express buses to Tokyo Bay Aqua Line departing and arriving at Tokyo Station use here.

Shingana Bridge is a plain bridge that has nothing to do.

Although it is named "bridge", it is not generally "bridge over river" but "bridge over highway".

Originally, a river called "Tsukiji River" was flowing, but it is reclaimed and a highway passes below.

Although it was such a bridge, Shinkinbashi was a very thoughtful bridge for Rosmari.

How many times did you cross this Shinkinbashi to enter Ginza via Shintomi-cho when you head to Ginza from the workplace in Nihonbashi?

Whether it's a bicycle or walking, this route is safer.

It is better than using Showa-dori, Chuo-dori, and other alleys.

There are few people, and there are few people passing by cars.

In addition, there are the Metropolitan Police Department Central Station and Nihonbashi Station on the route, and Tsukiji Station is also close.

There are few reckless driving cars or illegal parking.

"Showa-dori" is a thick road that runs up and down on the left. The shooting location was shown with a black star.

"Mitsuhashi Ruins" and "Shinkinbashi" are marked with red circles at the upper right respectively.

"Kyobashi Plaza where the Chuo-ku Tourism Association is located" and "Kyobashi Park" are also marked red below it.

"Iji Riverbank" is also marked at the lower right, but in fact there is an explanation board at the red star mark on the diagonal upper left of the name.

"Ginza Nishikawa Ginza Main Store" was shown in a purple star shape at the top of the red circle of the Chuo-ku Tourism Association.

I went on the green line in the upper right corner of the entire Ginza map above.

Even though it is a full map of Ginza, the upper right is missing, but this time it also passes through the missing upper right corner.

Therefore, the green line protrudes a little whole figure.
