The Komachi-oji Street extending from Sujikae-bashi Bridge and Zaimokuza is a historic street that was once lined with mansions of high ranking officials of the bakufu and gokenin (immediate vassals of the shogunate in the Kamakura and Muromachi through Edo periods). 小町大路は筋替橋から材木座までの由緒ある大路で、その両側には幕府高官・御家人の屋敷が並んでいた。 |
