「小金井の桜」Koganei no sakura
広重 Ando Hiroshige
- quote -
Koganei-sakura of the East Capital 東都小金井さくら
when Musashino Shinden was being developed,
on the both banks of the Tamagawa aqueduct around Koganei bridge as its center,
over a distance of about 6 kilometers.
For this, best breeds of wild cherry trees were purchased
from Yoshino (Nara Prefecture) and Sakuragawa (Ibaraki Prefecture).
This area was known as one of the prominent spots for "sakura (cherry blossom) viewing" in Edo since the late 18th century.

according to the lunar calendar, and reach full blossom on the 60th day.

Koganei-bashi bridge 小金井橋
It is said that the name comes from the famous water of Koganei nearby, one of the seven wells in Musashi.
Koganei became one of the best spots for sakura (cherry blossom) viewing in Edo
towards the end of the 18th century and many people visited the area.
The Koganei-bashi bridge was originally a timber bridge, which was easily damaged and needed to be rebuilt frequently.
The inhabitants of the area around the bridge, who had taken pain for financing the repair costs,
each contributed their funds and in 1856 (the third year of Ansei), finally built the stone bridge that they longed for.

Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum, Koganei
江戸東京たてもの園 Edo-Tokyo Tatemono-en
Dedicated to the architecture of the late Edo period, this outdoor museum showcases historic buildings.
- quote -
The Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum is an open air museum in the western suburbs of Tokyo, which exhibits a range of historic buildings from the Tokyo area. The buildings were relocated or reconstructed here in order to preserve a chapter of architectural history, which has been almost completely lost in fires, earthquakes, wars and city redevelopment.
Most of the buildings exhibited are from the Meiji Period (1868-1912) or more recent times, and include among others, a politician's elegant former residence, a farm house, a public bathhouse, various shops and a police box.
The Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum is a branch museum of the superb Edo-Tokyo Museum in Tokyo's Ryogoku district.
The open air museum is located in the western part of Koganei Park, Koganei City, 25 minutes west of Tokyo's Shinjuku Station by train.
