Fushimi Port Park - Kyoto

A park near the connection from Fushimi Water Town to the Uji River. In spring, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, and there are small flower fields around the water town, which is good for a walk course.

The cherry blossom season is outstanding! There are many cherry trees in the park, There are many places around the tennis court. Under the cherry tree after sweating I think it would be nice to eat lunch ~ o (^-^) o

A large park just off Nakashojima Station. The only playset is a slide and a swing, but the site is large and it is perfect for going out with a lunch box in the daytime. I went with my one and a half year old son and enjoyed it.

Sakura ? Season is cherry blossoms and green lawn ... The scenery is amazing with the yellow rape blossoms in full bloom ... The river flowing through the cherry blossom trees has a taste of Toshibune, and the mother's handmade bento is laid with a blue sheet in the cherry blossom trees. This is the place where you can eat the best food ...

The element of the city to hug Addendum 2021/4/30 Fushimi Port has been registered as "Minato Oasis".

The pool is taken care of in the summer, and the autumn leaves are also good. Winter is just right for the wandering. In other words, it's the best. Initially filled in In 1594, Hideyoshi built Fushimi Port with the aim of connecting Fushimi Castle in the capital and Osaka Castle with the Yodo River. Fushimi Castle was located in "Momoyama", the origin of the Azuchi-Momoyama period. Fushimi Castle belonged to the Tokugawa clan, but it was finally destroyed by the ceremony of Tokugawa Iemitsu's conquest general, and Fushimi ended its role as the capital. After that, Fushimi will be reborn as a port town. Throughout the Edo period, it functions as a node for logistics and traffic between Kyosaka and becomes the largest inland river port in Japan. At the end of the Tokugawa shogunate, many of the Ishin Shishi, including Ryoma Sakamoto, hid in Fushimi. The port town, which is close to the capital and has many people other than above, was the best place to hide. The Fushimi townspeople in the castle town of Hideyoshi Taiko often kept the scholars aiming to overthrow the Tokugawa administration. In the Meiji era, Japan's first commercial operation of a train connected Fushimi Port with Kyoto Station. Furthermore, the government railway and Shinkeihan (currently Hankyu Kyoto Line) were laid on the right bank of the Yodo River, and the Keihan Electric Railway and Keihan Kokudo were laid on the left bank, and land transportation prospered. In the 1960s, a city plan was formulated to reclaim the port and make it a municipal parking lot. He is trying to completely eliminate the harbor of his body to serve land transportation. Fushimi Port is located on the outer edge of Kyoto city, sandwiched between National Highway No. 1 (Keihan National Highway) and No. 24 (Yamato Highway), and is close to Nakashojima Station where the Keihan Main Line and Uji Line branch off. It was still a transportation hub. The Fushimi townspeople objected to the plan of Kyoto City Hall. "Covering the top means that the bottom is odorous. Since the opening of the prefecture, Fushimi Port has been a benefactor who has supported prosperity, not odorous." The town of Fushimi was more reluctant than the Kyoto people thought. The scale of the Fushimi Port site reclamation was reduced, and a park development was planned and constructed to restore the historical landscape. Fushimi Port is still legally a "port" and is under the jurisdiction of the Maizuru Port Office of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. More than half a century has passed since the original function of the port was fully stopped. However, the character of this town, which was created during the port town era and accepts and embraces open and diverse things, is still alive. This "openness" is a characteristic of Fushimi that is distinctly different from Kyoto, which is said to be "closed" like the Makurakotoba. I have changed my address on my resident card more than 10 times, but I have never lived in a town that is more open and inclusive than Fushimi. Gokonomiya Shrine, the general guardian of Fushimi Kyugo, said, "(Mikamiya Festival) is a historic festival in a historic town, but the new residents of Fushimi's first generation who moved to Fushimi offer to carry a portable shrine. Old residents also welcome this. This is what Fushimi is proud of. It is the best festival in Japan. " Is there any other city like this? In 1994, Kyoto raised the city to celebrate the 1300th anniversary of the founding of Heian. However, only around Otesuji, the nobori of "400 years since the opening of Fushimi Port" was reversed. Eighty years after the Kyoto Fushimi joint, Fushimi was neither absorbed nor assimilated. Fushimi is Fushimi.

The cherry blossoms are beautiful. You can enjoy walking along the riverside slowly. Toshifune came and went and felt spring
