I love this park. Have so many good memories here. Always nice to visit.

(Translated by Google) I came to see the river and the row of pine trees and found out through word of mouth that it was strange that it was called a "bridge" even though I wasn't crossing the river. When was it made? It's a "bridge" full of humor. (Original) 川と松原並木を見ようと訪れて川を渡るのではないのに「橋」と名がついている不思議を口コミで知りました。いつ作られたのでしょうか？ ユーモア溢れる「橋」だ

(Translated by Google) In residential area inconspicuous But you'll love it at first sight Is this what familiar beliefs are like? Once upon a time, worshipers who got off the Edogawa ferry, probably on the side of the current Nodabashi Bridge, headed for Katori Shrine in Kamihanawa District. Tofukuji Temple is protected by residents on the way to the shrine. There is Dosojin, who is also a guidepost. The principal image is Fudo-sama. Although the road is winding, I turn my feet in the direction indicated by Dosojin. That's the kind of situation that comes to mind around here. When you visit Tofuku-ji Temple, I would like you to follow the ancient paths in the area and go to Katori Shrine. We hope you will get lost and get a glimpse of the leisurely lives of the residents. I feel like I can see a soft faith and a real life that matches it. My favorite is the Ahobara Jizoson statue, which is a carved Buddha statue located within the temple grounds. It is also commonly called Togenuki Jizo. It is said that he removes the thorns of worldly desires that are stuck in the roots of sentient beings. I am truly grateful for this, as I have a heart full of thorns. It is engraved with a soft touch that is reminiscent of the Tsukuda Tendai Jizo statue in Tsukishima, Tokyo. Although the precincts are small, there are Aomen-sama, a memorial tower, and a pagoda on the 19th night. Is this a Zen temple for a moment? It's so neat and tidy that you'd think so. You can feel the love of the temple people from the temple family. If possible I would like to say that it is my own temple. (Original) 住宅地内 目立たない しかし、ひとめ見ると好きになる 身近な信仰って、こういうことなのですかねぇ かつて、たぶん現在の野田橋わき、江戸川の渡しを降りた参拝客は、上花輪郡の香取神社を目指す。 その参道途中に住民の方々がお護りする東福寺さん。 そこには道しるべでもある道祖神さま。ご本尊は、お不動様。 くねくね道ながら、道祖神さまが指し示す方向へと足を向ける って、そんな想像が湧いてきてしまう、このあたり一帯のシチュエーション。 どうか東福寺さんをお参りになったら、周辺の古道あとをたどりつつ、香取神社へ行っていただきたい。 迷子になりつつ、のんびりとした住民の方々の生活を垣間見ていただきたい。 やわらかな信仰とそれに合わせた実生活が、見えるような気がします。 わたしのお気に入りは、境内にある　磨崖仏である　阿保原地蔵尊。俗にとげぬき地蔵とも呼ばれますね。 衆生のこころ根にささった、煩悩の棘を抜いてくださるというもの。 棘だらけのこころ根を内蔵するわたくしには、じつにありがたい。 東京・月島の佃・天台地蔵尊をほうふつとさせるような、やわらかいタッチで刻まれています。 狭い境内ながら、青面さま、供養塔、十九夜塔がお立ちになっています。 こちら一瞬禅寺？と思ってしまうほど、小ぎれいにされております。 寺族の方のお寺愛が伝わってきます。 できれば 自分だけのお寺、って言いたいですねぇ

(Translated by Google) This is a shrine next to Sanki Kogyo. I think it probably has nothing to do with this company. I looked inside, but I couldn't see anything. (Original) 三喜工業の隣にある神社です。多分こちらの会社とは関係ないと思います。中を覗きましたが何か分かりません。

(Translated by Google) It is a small temple, but there are two votive plaques on top. (Original) 小さなお堂ですが、上に奉納額が２点。

(Translated by Google) To the left of the entrance to the precincts of Tozenji Temple, famous for the Edo Roku Jizo statues, there are seated statues of Mr. and Mrs. Yasubei Kimura, the founders of Kimuraya Sohonten. It is said that Kimuraya's anpan became a purveyor to the imperial court through the mediation of Yamaoka Tesshu, who was the tutor of Emperor Meiji and is known for being the inventor of anpan and the first to commercially sell it. The letters on the signboards displayed at the Ginza main store and other locations are apparently replicas commissioned by Tesshu Yamaoka shortly after the company's founding. At the end of the Tozenji cemetery, there is a magnificent grave of the Kimura family for generations, and it seems that the award ceremony for long-time employees of Kimuraya Sohonten will be held here at Tozenji. When I bought a bug cake at the Tobu Store, which is about 150 meters away from Tozenji in the Asakusa direction, the name of Kimuraya Sohonten was written on the package. (Original) 江戸六地蔵で有名な「東禅寺」の境内の入り口左手には、木村屋總本店の創業者の木村安兵衛夫妻の坐像がある。あんぱんの考案者で世に初めて市販したことでも知られ、明治天皇の家庭教師だった山岡鉄舟の仲介で木村屋のあんぱんは宮中御用達となったとか。銀座本店などに掲げられている看板の文字は、創業間もなく山岡鉄舟に依頼して書いてもらったレプリカらしい。 東禅寺の墓地の一番奥の突き当りには立派な木村家代々の墓があり、木村屋總本店の永年勤続者の表彰式はここ東禅寺で行うらしい。 東禅寺から浅草方向１５０ｍ程先にある東武ストア―でむしケーキを買ったら、パッケージに木村屋總本店の名が書いてあった。

(Translated by Google) In the Shingon sect, the principal image is Amida Nyorai. It's close to Nitta Station on the Tobu Line, but there aren't many people walking around. This place doesn't have a kuri, so it's kind of scary.As the information board says, it seems like a thousand Jizo statues are enshrined there. (Original) 真言宗で本尊を阿弥陀如来。東武線新田駅から近いのですが、回りに人が歩いていません。こちらは庫裏がないからかそれも相まってなんか怖いです😅案内板にもありますが、千体地蔵が安置されているようです。

(Translated by Google) The name of the era was only 3 years old (1655-57). It seems that it was not originally the current location, but its original location is not recorded. I think it is the second most famous shrine in Soka City after Soka Shrine, but this shrine does not usually have a Shinto priest on duty. Needless to say, a festival is held every year on July 1st, the opening day of Mt. Fuji, and the area around Yatsuka Station becomes lively. By the way, there is a water mark in the basin of this shrine. Actually, it was still clearly visible when I took the photo 10 years ago, but hmmm, I can't see it 😅 If I find it, I'll upload it, but the reference point for the water mark is Reigon Island (Shinkawa, Koto Ward, Tokyo) The standard is 0m. This basin was originally the basin of Shimosengen Shrine, the precinct shrine. It is Shimosengen Shrine, but it is now dedicated to a corner of the precincts. I forgot to take a picture of it, but the water basin and main shrine at the 几go benchmark are designated as cultural properties. There is also a large Fujizuka behind the shrine building. This is also a cultural property. I can't climb it. Built in 1916, it is 4m high, 10.4m wide, and 8.6m deep. (Original) 明暦年間遷座(1655-57)僅か3年の元号ですね。元は現在の地ではなかったようですが、元々の位置が記されていません。草加市では草加神社に次いで有名な神社ではないかと思いますが、こちらの神社は普段は神職さんは常駐しておらず、なります。言わずともですが毎年富士開きの7月1日に祭礼を執り行っており、谷塚駅周辺賑やかになります。ところでこちらの神社の水盤には几号水準点があります。実は10年前に撮ったときはまだハッキリ見えていたんですが、うーん、みえない😅もし見つかったら上げてみますが、水準点の基準になっているのは霊厳島(東京都江東区新川)が０mという基準になっています。この水盤は元々は境内社の下浅間神社の水盤でした。下浅間神社なんですが今は境内の隅に奉られています。撮り忘れてしまったのですがこの几号水準点の水盤と本殿は文化財となっています。そして社殿裏に大きな富士塚があります。こちらも文化財です。登れません。1916年造立、高さ4m、横幅10.4m、奥行き8.6mあります。

Wonderful temple. Well kept and where you can find the peace

(Translated by Google) It is located on the premises of Ichifuku Marukusa, the maker of Soka Senbei. I've taken a quick tour of the rice cracker factory, visited the hand-baking experience corner, and visited the rice cracker shop, but I've yet to go inside this museum without paying the 500 yen entrance fee. Everyone you meet here will be kind to visitors. I was curious about the huge lantern standing next to it and wanted to take a photo of it, so I got the permission of the shop staff and took a photo. Next time, we will also take a look inside the museum, where there are old folk tools, materials about ancient rice cracker making, and works by Shiko Munakata. (Original) 草加せんべい製造の丸草一福さんの敷地内にあります。せんべいの工場をちらっと見学したりや手焼き体験コーナー、せんべい販売店にはお邪魔したことあるんですが、この博物館内部は入館料500円をケチってしまってまだなんです。ここで出会う方はみなさん来訪者に親切にしていただけます。隣に建つ巨大な灯籠が気になって📷️を撮りたくなってお店の人に了解とって写させていただきました。今度は古民具や古くからのせんべい作りの資料、棟方志功の作品があるという博物館内部も見させていただきます。

(Translated by Google) Even though it faces a narrow alley, there are people who illegally park and play on the T-junction. The roadway is narrow and impedes emergency vehicles. Just like there are rules in tennis, you can't follow traffic laws. Sports for ladies and gentlemen is a joke It would be a good idea to warn those who manage it that it is illegal, but it has been reported to the police several times in the past. Isn't the manager responsible? (Original) 細い路地に面していているのにも係わらずT字路上に違法駐車してプレイする方々居ます。 車道幅狭く緊急車両の妨げになります。 テニスにもルールあるように道交法守れない。 紳士、淑女のスポーツとはお笑い草 管理される方にも違法注意したら良いけど過去何回か警察に通報されてます。 管理する方に責任無いのかな？
