This has even become a stamp:



This print shows the Hirokoji leading from 筋違橋御門前 to 外堀(神田川) the Sotobori of the Kanda river. In the front is part of 筋違橋御門の櫓 the watch tower and in the far back part of 神田神社 Kanda Jinja.
It is at the beginning of the 中山道 Nakasendo along the Sotobori. Nearby is 昌平橋 Shoheibashi. Crossing the river leads to a road to Ueno, for the Shogun to visit 上野寛永寺 the graves at Kanei-Ji.
Since eight small roads come together here, the name was given to this district.

In the front is a 大名行列 Daimyo Gyoretsu, procession of a lord and his samurai warriors.

Ginza Main Street, from sub-district 1 to 8, between Kyobashi and Shinbashi.
江戸期の銀座は職人の街だった
Ginza was a district of craftsmen!
- reference source : s.webry.info/sp/8mada.at.webry.info -

The making of silver coins (coin making workshop) was done by
湯浅作兵衛常是　Yuasa Sakubei Joze from Sakai, Osaka.
Tokugawa Ieyasu gave him the surname 大黒 "Daikoku", so
Daikoku Sakubei Joze 大黒常是 Daikoku Joze (Daikoku Tsuneze) became controller (inspector, governor) of the ginza silver mint. the oginfukiyaku　御銀吹役.
(engineer in charge of the coinage)

The title was kept in the Daikoku family for many generations.
In 1800, the family head was charged with fraud and lost the title. The Ginza was then moved to
Nihonbashi Kakigaracho　日本橋蠣殻町 (now 人形町 Nihonbashi Ningyocho).
The need for the silver mint "ginza" was lost in the Meiji restauration, but the name remained.


..............................................................................................................................................

- - - - - A lot has been written about the famous Ginza, so let us have a look at some quotes:

-- Ginza 銀座 – Silver mint or monopoly office (post-1598).
... is a designation given to the place that played a buying and selling of casting and silver bullion coin in the middle early modern period of Japan's regime.
Edo Ginza Kyobashi / Edo-Kakikara cho Ginza
Ginza silver mints are located in other towns of Japan, the list is here:
- - - More in the WIKIPEDIA !


-- Ginza in Tokyo
a district of Chūō, Tokyo, located south of Yaesu and Kyōbashi, west of Tsukiji, east of Yūrakuchō and Uchisaiwaichō, and north of Shinbashi.
Ginza was built upon a former swamp that was filled in during the 16th century. The name Ginza comes after the establishment of a silver-coin mint established there in 1612, during the Edo period.
After a devastating fire in 1872 burnt down most of the area, the Meiji government designated the Ginza area as a "model of modernization." The government planned the construction of fireproof brick buildings and larger, better streets connecting Shimbashi Station all the way to the foreign concession in Tsukiji.

On the underground pathway that connects the Ginza with 日比谷 Hibiya, there is a Yurei ghost showing up once in a while.
Walking down the stairway from the Ginza side, where is a whirl of golden hair fluttering in the wind, following people. If people try to run away from it, it moves even faster toward them. When they reach the other side at Hibiya, the ghost disappears in a puff.
