Kikuichoo 喜久井町 Kikuicho district
Shinjuku, no sub-districts



The Natsume family lived in this district since the Edo period.
The father of the famous author Natsume Soseki, 夏目小兵衛直克 Natsume Kohei Naokatsu named the area after the family crest
igata ni kiku (i no kiku) 井桁に菊 well pattern 井 with chrysanthemum 菊.



He choose the characters 喜久 Ki Ku instead of 菊 kiku for chrysanthemum, to express his love for literature and auspicious meanings.

Natsume Sōseki wrote about this district in his novel
. 硝子戸の中 Inside My Glass Doors in 1915.

今私の住んでゐる近所に喜久井町といふ町がある。
これは私の生れた所だから、ほかの人よりもよく知つてゐる。(中略)この町は江戸と云つた昔には、多分存在してゐなかつたものらしい。江戸が東京に改まつた時か、それともずつと後になつてからか、年代はたしかに分らないが、何でも私の父が拵えたものに相違ないのである。私の家の定紋が井桁に菊なので、それにちなんだ菊に井戸を使つて、喜久井町としたといふ話は、父自身の口から聴いたのか、または他のものから教はつたのか、何しろ今でもまだ私の耳に残つてゐる。父は名主がなくなつてから、一時区長といふ役を勤めてゐたので、あるいはそんな自由も利いたかも知れないが、それを誇にした彼の虚栄心を、今になつて考へて見ると、厭な心持は疾くに消え去つて、ただ微笑したくなるだけである

Tokyo Skytree (東京スカイツリー
is a broadcasting, restaurant, and observation tower in Sumida, Tokyo, Japan.
It became the tallest structure in Japan in 2010 and reached its full height of 634.0 metres (2,080 ft) in March 2011, making it the tallest tower in the world, displacing the Canton Tower, and the second tallest structure in the world after the Burj Khalifa (829.8 m/2,722 ft).
The tower
is the primary television and radio broadcast site for the Kantō region; the older Tokyo Tower no longer gives complete digital terrestrial television broadcasting coverage because it is surrounded by high-rise buildings. Skytree was completed on Leap Day, 29 February 2012, with the tower opening to the public on 22 May 2012. The tower is the centerpiece of a large commercial development funded by Tobu Railway and a group of six terrestrial broadcasters headed by NHK. Trains stop at the adjacent Tokyo Skytree Station and nearby Oshiage Station.
The complex is 7 km (4.3 mi) north-east of Tokyo Station.

inugami 犬神 and Kobo Daishi
昔弘法大師が四国を廻っていた時、ある人に親切を受けたので御礼として何かを書いて厳封して畑に立て猪除けとした。開けてはならないといわれたが封を切ると犬の絵が描かれていた。その犬が抜け出して犬神となった。

弘法大師が四国を巡っている時農家に宿を借り、その返礼に野猪の害を防ぐ呪禁として、料紙に何か書いたものを授けた。封じ目を切ってはならぬと堅く言い置いたのだが、封を切ってしまった。すると犬が1匹描いてあり、それが紙から抜け出して犬神になった。
and one from 愛媛県 Ehime, Matsuyama
昔、弘法大師が宿を借りたお礼に、野猪が畑を荒らさないように、紙に何かを書いて封じ、封を切ってはならないと言って、禁呪の紙を与えた。野猪が出なくなった不思議さに封を破ったら、犬の絵があった。その犬が飛び出て犬神になったという。

赤猪岩神社 Akaiiiwa Jinja
232 Terauchi, Nanbu, Saihaku District, Tottori



- quote -
The principal god of Akaiiwa Shrine is Okuninushi.
The shrine also enshrines the gods of Susanoo-no-Mikoto and Inatahime-no-Mikoto. According to myth, Okuninushi in his younger days incurred the enmity of his brothers over Yakamihime and met his death in this area after a large rock that burned red was dropped on him. However, he was then supposedly revived by his mother. Worshippers from inside and outside the prefecture come to pray for recovery at this shrine that is called the setting of recovery and rebirth.

Irifune 入船 Irifune district
Chuo ward, Kyōbashi Area (京橋地区). 一丁目- 三丁目 first to third sub-district

former 入船町 Irifunecho
present day Irifune first to third sub-district, 新富 Shintomi first and second sub-district and 明石町 Akashicho.
In January 1971, on the wish of the citizens, the name 町 CHO was dropped.



In the West of the area was the river 入船川 Irifunegawa.
Irifune means a place where ships come in.

In 1868, the area was designated as 外国人居留地 for foreigners to live.
It used to have nine sub-districts.
In 1899 the designation for foreigners was revoked. The 8th and 9th sub-district became part of 明石町 Akashicho. The remaining sub-districts became smaller and were reduced to only three.
Most of the many moats and canals were lost to new road constructions.

Now it is an area of high-rise buildings and mansions. Many of these add the word 銀座 Ginza to their naming.


From Shintomi toward Irifune 新富町 -入船町

River Irifunegawa
It was a small canal of about 400 m, from the 桜川 Sakuragawa toward the 築地川 Tsukijigawa. The land has now been relcaimed.

Shintomi 新富 Shintomi district "new riches"
Chuo, Kyōbashi Area (京橋地区). 新富一丁目, 新富二丁目 first and second sub-district
It used to be part of Kyobashi.

The former name was 新富町 Shintomicho.
There used to be two areas named 新島原 Shinshimabara and 大富町 Otomicho. When they were united, one character from each area was used for the new naming.
In January 1971, on the wish of the citizens, the name 町 CHO was dropped.



In the early Edo period there was a red-light district in the area, and many Samurai estates.
In 1868, the area was designated as 外国人居留地 for foreigners to live.
A lot of government buildings are in this area.

- quote Kabuki -
The Morita-za (森田座・守田座), also known later as the Shintomi-za (新富座),
was one of the major Kabuki theaters in Edo (modern-day Tokyo) during the Edo period and into the beginning of the 20th century. It was established in January 1660, and run by the Morita family of actors until its destruction in the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake which destroyed much of Tokyo.



..... In 1858, after a number of closings and reopenings of the theater, the Morita-za opened once more, changing its name, however, from 「森田座」 to 「守田座」 (both are pronounced the same, as "Morita-za"). The character 守 (mori) means "protection", and this change was perhaps made to seek better luck for the theater, and protection from fire and from bankruptcy. The theater would then be moved and rebuilt in 1872, leaving Saruwaka-chō for Shintomi-chō; the new building was larger, and had a few new features, such as indoor toilets and a seating section for foreigners. A few years later, in 1875, the theater was renamed Shintomi-za, after the district, in celebration and recognition of its becoming a stock company (sogo shosha).

- quote -
"Shintomi-za Children's kabuki" in Edo
Chuo-ku is the birthplace of Edo kabuki, and there are many playhouses since the Edo period. Kabuki has been widely loved by the common people. In Shintomi-cho, Shintomi-za Theater was opened in 1875 and it was crowded as an entertainment town. Today, there is no trace of it in the town, but there are still many companies such as costumes and sceneries which support kabuki.
In the spring of 2007, "Shintomi-za Children's kabuki" party was established in this town.
The origin of this event was the encounter with children kabuki at Hikiyama Festival in Nagahama, Shiga Prefecture. We were excited about the lovely children kabuki and the enthusiasm of the town's people who supported it, and we thought "We can do it in Shintomi-cho!".
