From Japan to SL

Found the Kanda Shrine that had been in old Edo SIMs. Premises are smaller than before, but the same building reminds me of the good old days.

Festivals were held every month. There were hundreds of votive pictures dedicated at the New Year’s visit. Also there were some tour groups from overseas. How have been the members gathered together at the weekly meeting?




The weekly meeting was held at guard house, inner palace of Edo castle, corridor, office in the castle, and also at the donjon. The last meeting was at Sensoji temple at Asakusa.




There are many reminiscences, but the top of them is the wedding ceremony of Kanda family. This picture was taken more than four years ago. On the large cake, there was a stage where traditional ballad singer Yukino Ichikawa performed live at every festival.




Next to the shrine area my house was situated. Six members of the Kanda family were residing at the next house. It was full of life. I was always received into the group. By any chance… I walked around, but there was nothing but a strange streetscape in the evening glow.
