About morning glory The morning glory is an annual plant of the Convolvulaceae family, and the vines are left-handed. It is said that the place of origin is tropical Asia or the warm foothills from southwestern China to the Himalayas. It is said that the morning glory was introduced to Japan by the envoy to Tang from China in the Nara period, more than 1,000 years ago. At that time, this morning glory seed was prized as a very valuable Chinese herbal medicine and was used as a laxative. In addition, it was not until the Edo period that the morning glory that came in as a medicine was cultivated for appreciation as it is now. Furthermore, the seeds of morning glory are called "Kengoshi" or "Kenigoshi" in Chinese, and they are called morning glory because they are flowers that bloom in the morning after writing the Japanese name as Asakaho. The morning glory is also known as the Kengoshi flower, which is also known as the Kengyuka. The morning glory flower is written as the flower of the Tanabata cow, the lady, so the morning glory market has been held for three days before and after the Tanabata festival.

Asagao's four varieties of Saki are about 2,000 yen per bowl. There is a taste of downtown, the seller is cool and cool in Edokko!

I went to Asuka in Iriya for the first time in a long time. I was surprised that there are many morning glory types. I will also go next year.

It is a summer feature of Tokyo. Every year at the time of Tanabata It will be implemented in Iriya. It went quite early in the morning There is not, but it seems to be the most beautiful in the early morning. If you were on Monday this year, there were few people and it was sad.

I have been there before and revisited on July 6 on the first day. I used to go from Iriya Station on Tokyo Metro before, but this time I went from JR Shibuya Station. It is close enough even from here. The scenery lined with shops was spectacular. The morning glory to see is Danjuro. I checked the features etc. in advance because I could not really meet the real thing. In addition, I met people who had already been bought at the station, told them which shops they were selling, and bought them immediately. As it is impossible to bring it along with the luggage of the trip, I asked for a home delivery. I wanted to see the morning glory blooming, so I went in the morning, but a lot of people were already crowded. It is true that it is a summer feature.

The city of Asakusa's lucky charms, battledore, rake, and demon lantern that give you an Edo atmosphere. Above all, I love the morning glory market here. You can also study varieties such as "Yojiro" which is bright to the eyes and "Danjuro" which has a weak Japanese hue. How about a bowl to accompany the summer?

It is the famous morning glory market in Iriya ? I am surprised that there are quite a few types of morning glory! ️ There are also stores, so children will be happy.

The morning glory festival is held from July 6th to 8th every year. It is crowded with 400,000 people, with 120 morning glory vendors and 100 stalls lined up in line with the story, centering on Iriya Oniko Makoto. The morning glory of Iriya became famous at the end of the Edo period of culture and culture. Cultivation began in Okachimachi, where a large number of lower warriors lived, and later, more than a dozen planters in Iriya began to build. The morning glory is wonderful, and it seems that it became so popular that it was blocked in the middle of the Meiji era and taken to show Kido sen. The reason why Iritani's morning glory was popular was that the soil was suitable and the unusual flower that was popular at that time. A variety of flowers can be made to bloom like a bellflower or peony, or a cross of pollen with a double flowering, and a thousand morning glory blooms with a flower full of change at the peak of the period and it is enjoyed. It seems so. The circular morning glory was also cultivated as a large flower bloom at the end of Edo period, but the mysterious beauty of the change bloom has caused a boom. At the end of the Edo period, it was the morning glory of Iritani who lost fame, but the last gardener went out of business in Taisho 2 and disappeared from Iriya. The changing morning glory is also forgotten, and the mainstream changes to a circular morning glory. And 35 years passed and Showa 23 years. The morning glory market of Iriya was resurrected to brighten the world after the war. The first year of the year (2019) was the 71st anniversary. That's amazing.
