Walking around Higashinihombashi street while searching for treasure
I went to "Treasure Hunting" at Higashi Nihonbashi 2-chome, which was introduced on the blog of Issa 123 on July 20. Until now, Higashinihombashi was not very familiar, and when I went in a hurry before the Chuo-ku sightseeing certification test, the road was intricate and I was lost. I thought it was a good opportunity, so I got off at JR Bakurocho Station to also walk around the city.
Bakurocho is -27.14m above sea level.
Surprisingly, it was 27.14m above sea level, and it was the lowest station on JR until Tokyo Station on the Keiyo Line was established in March 1990. In addition, the highest Komi Line Nobeyama Station (1345.67m above sea level) became a sister station in June 1988.
Ryogoku remaining in Chuo-ku
When you go up to the ground, you can see the Ryogoku Post Office in Asakusabashi across Yasukuni Dori. It is one of the places where the treasure chest is placed. This area was both in Chuo-ku, right? In front, there is Ryogoku Post Office Street, which leads to the historic site Ryogoku Hirokoji Temple, and beyond that to Ryogoku Bridge.
Hatsune Mori Shrine
There is Hatsune Mori Shrine along with Ryogoku Post Office. It's inside the building, and the hall of worship is on the second floor. In order to go to the battle of Sekigahara, Ieyasu Tokugawa's army set up at Baba in Hatsune and prayed for victory at Hatsune Mori Shrine. It is reported that he took a break with the water of Kanoi, gave the horse riding the water, set out, won a great victory, returned, and later named the well "crescent moon".
In the Edo period, it became Goyochi of the Shogunate and the Imperial Palace, and its headquarters is still in Sumida Ward. In 1950, the ceremony hall (worship hall) returned for the first time in 300 years, and there is a kilometer between the head office and worship hall.
In addition, there is the "Hatsune Mori Shrine Museum" on the first floor, where you can enter for free. In addition to the gate pillars of Asakusa Gomon and the Hexagonal portable shrine, panels of the history of this area are on display.
A treasure chest at Yagenbori Fudoin also
The quiz is completed by visiting the long-established store.
It is the shop where the treasure chest is placed and the shop where the answer application is applied.
In Nihonbashi, Tsukiji, Kabuto-cho, etc., I participated in solving mysteries and treasure hunting, but compared to the mystery that I often couldn't go around in one day, this time in the East Japan 2-chome area, according to the instructions on the map As you proceed, the treasure chest is placed in an easy-to-understand place, and the quiz can be solved naturally. You can enjoy walking around the city in about 2 hours, and it is also recommended for children during summer vacation. Please go out in a cool time.
