Chapter 435: Memories Kill
In the past, Chai You, which was popular to grow rice, made mugwort mochi with harvested white rice and mugwort, and kneaded it into a dumpling to sell it to believers who came to visit the Imperial Palace. This is the mugwort mochi dumpling, which is also known as the eel rice. To this day, there are still many shops making delicious grass cakes in Sandou.
Especially Takagiya, it is said that in the movie "The Story of Injiro", the protagonist Injiro's hometown selling grass cakes was built based on Takagiya. Takagiya Laoshop has stores on both sides of Tando. Facing the direction of Indra, the shop on the right sells mochi dumplings and snack biscuits, and on the left are Japanese restaurants and dessert houses.
The most famous one in the store is the bean powder black honey fern cake, which makes people unable to stop eating it. In addition, the bean paste and fruit powder are also good. The traditional Japanese desserts are topped with a ball of vanilla ice cream, which is very memorable with the wonderful taste of foreign countries.
I heard that the late male actor Omiki, who plays Injiro, has his favorite dish to be the Yamato family's Tendon. The restaurant's proud fresh fried prawns and vegetable tempura are filled with sweet and thick sauces and hot rice, so it is not surprising that it has always had a large number of loyal fans.
When you reach the end of the temple road, you can see "Chai You Indra". Most of the shrines and temples in Japan are calm and simple, but there are many carvings on the buildings of Chai You Indra, and they are particularly exquisite. Each piece is like a beautiful work of art, which makes people stop and stare and praise it.
These wood carvings are lifelike, and are carved with exquisite carvings, giving people a very warm texture.
It was built in 1629 and is a temple in Nichiren Sect. The founder of the foundation was the title of Master Rirong. When the temple was opened, there was a statue of Indra carved by the Saint Hiroshi, but it was said that the statue disappeared in the middle of Edo period. Until 1779, when the ninth-generation abbot Hiroshi-inen was renovating the temple, he accidentally discovered the statue of Indra on the beam and finally lost it again.
The day of loss and regaining is Gengshen. Master Ri Jing thinks that this day is a good day with Indra God. In the second year of finding the Indra God statue, drought and plague occurred. According to legend, Master Ri Jing takes the statue to visit many places, wherever he goes, to eliminate disasters and diseases, so Chai You Indra God's reputation gradually becomes famous. Now every Gengshen day, people come to pray for elimination of disasters and diseases.
Come to Yamamoto Tei, which has a very romantic atmosphere, and have a rest, enjoying the beautiful Japanese garden while enjoying tea. Yamamoto Tei is a building with a nearly 100-year history that combines academy architecture and Western architectural styles.
Yamamoto Ting was built in the late Taisho period and was originally the residence of Yamamoto Einosuke Yamamoto founder. Later, it was renovated many times in the early Showa period, leaving behind a strong charm of the integration of Eastern and Western cultures.
The most eye-catching thing here is the Japanese garden landscape. From each quaint and elegant room in the museum, you can enjoy beautiful garden scenery from different angles. Yamamoto Tei also won the third place in the 2016 gardens in the United States among the 900 national rankings.
The center of Tokyo, centered on the palace, was originally a region where samurai's residences were concentrated, and this area was called "Yanju". To the east of the Yamadai area was a place where merchants and craftsmen were concentrated. These civilian areas where they could only live in common clothes and vegetables were called Shimocho.
For those of the Shimamachi people who have been born and raised by the three generations of Shimocho, such as cobblers and blacksmiths, they can only be called real craftsmen without leaving overnight money. They believe that as long as they have the skills to make careful masterpieces, they can make money at any time.
This value has been passed down to this day, and the protagonist who represents this value is Injiro. "The Story of Injiro" is a series of comedy produced year after year from 1969 to 1997. Injiro, born in Shibaya, Katsushika, is a gangster who is not doing his job and is in a foreign country to set up stalls and sell things. He doesn't make much money when setting up a stall, and can only sleep in the open, but he is not alone because his cute little sister and uncle and uncle are waiting for his prodigal son to turn back.
He is a friendly person, reasonable, and has great courage, but he is shallow in his knowledge and crazy about his words and deeds. Therefore, whenever he returns home in a mess, he always makes jokes. Whenever people joke with Injiro's Ma Daha, he will pull his face down. His expression is the most funny, which often makes the audience laugh.
Every time he meets a poor woman in another place, he will fall in love with her and even let her stay in her hometown in Shimachi. But these women often have lovers, and their dreams will become silly. Even so, he will slapped his face and pretend to be fat, and finally put on his clothes and embark on the journey again. This old-fashioned content lasts for 48 episodes, and although it is a cliché, it is very popular.
As the saying goes, life is like a play, and play is like a life. This movie has been played for 26 years. From the Showa era to the current Heisei era, actor Omiki has played all the joys and sorrows in Injiro's life, and has also performed the changes in life in that era.
Many movie scenes are built in the museum, some of which are original sizes and some are reduced models, but this is not just a movie scene, but these are also a real epitome of the daily life of that era. Although I am not a movie fan, the things displayed in the Yin-Shi Memorial Hall fascinate me. The reduced model of the past street scenes of Chai You Old Street, the scene where the old lady in the pancake shop is baking fairy beads, which is so vivid and delicate.
For example, when Injiro was 16 years old, he left home in anger because he was quarreling with his father. His sister Sakura chased him to the station platform and said farewell to Injiro. Not only did the two talk and dubbing, but the tram also had a door that could be opened and closed and could be driven, which was very unforgettable.
