今のバイパスが出来る前、桜井地区を抜ける道が岸野へと向かう主要道路でした。大型の路線バスが日に何度も往復していました。この辺りには『鯉』や『ニジマス』の養殖池が多く、今でも鮮魚で販売しています。道路沿いに幟立てが見えました。『桜井神社』と在りますから地域の『氏神様』でしょうか。立派な雨除け屋根の着いた『扁額』が掲げられた鳥居を潜り拝殿へ。大きな注連縄が飾られてる『門』（社務所かな）を潜ると拝殿です。元旦祭が在ったばかりなのか、きれいに掃除されています。太鼓一つに、幕と随身様の絵だけというシンプルさがかえって好感持てます。拝殿の前に何故『カラス像』と思っていましたがよく見たら『平和の鳩』でした。だってスリムなんだもん。隣は『神宮寺』というお寺で『神仏混載』の名残でしょうか。反対側には広い野球グランドやゲートボール場が在ります。此処は昔の『桜井小学校』の跡地です。地区の子は岸野小学校（泉小学校だったかな）へ通っています。この辺りから観る『残雪の浅間山』好きだなぁ。

Before the current bypass, the road through the Sakurai area was the main road to Kishino. A large fixed-route bus made a round trip many times a day. There are many "carp" and "rainbow trout" fishponds around here, and they are still sold as fresh fish. I saw a nobori stand along the road. Since it is called "Sakurai Shrine", is it the local "Ujigami-sama"? Dive into the hall of worship through the torii gate with the "flat frame" with a splendid rain-proof roof. If you dive into the "gate" (the office) where a large shimenawa is displayed, you will find the hall of worship. Maybe it was just the New Year's festival, it has been cleaned cleanly. I like the simplicity of just one drum, the curtain and the picture of Zuijin. I was wondering why it was a "crow statue" in front of the hall of worship, but when I looked closely, it was a "peace dove". Because it's slim. Next to it is a temple called "Jingu-ji", which is a remnant of "Kamibutsu mixed loading". On the other side is a large baseball ground and gateball field. This is the site of the old "Sakurai Elementary School". The children in the district go to Kishino Elementary School (I think it was Izumi Elementary School). I like "Mt. Asama with the remaining snow" seen from around here.
