Ujiie Station - Sakura

Nasushiobara Station Management (^^)

It is a beautiful station.

There is an east-west free passage, but it is a little inconvenient, and I would like it to be a Hashigami station building if possible.

I haven't used it much It seems that it has become quite beautiful and a tourist information center has been opened.

I've heard rumors, but the station staff really feels bad. High pressure and arrogant. I was surprised that the way of saying things was from the top and that it was really as rumored. Even if I have something to do at night, there is no one inside. Since my family gets on and off, I am indebted to them, so I will give them two stars, but I would like them to treat me with a little more gentle feeling.

West exit? I often use (Line 4 side), but when my local senior from Yokohama came, he said, "That's it. It looks like a good public toilet." I thought. It is inconvenient that there is only one ticket gate.

It is a calm station. With JR, I don't really feel the local color.

A station on the Tohoku Main Line. However, there are many attractions in the cityscape, partly because there was a residence on the Oshu Kaido. ?‼ ️ There is a tourist information center on the "Sakura Terrace" in front of the station. I visited on January 10, 2022 (Monday) while walking around the city of Sakura. The following is an excerpt from the "Sakura City Official Guidebook" ● Ujiie Station, the gateway to Sakura City, was opened on February 25, 1897 (Meiji 30), and has quietly watched over the activities, joys, and sorrows of the people who use it for over 100 years. In the past, rice was piled up at Ujiie Station and shipped nationwide, and the nursery rhyme poet Ujo Noguchi came down. In addition, there were sad events such as the area around the station being shot by an airplane during the Pacific War. This is just one example. There are still many stories about Ujiie Station. ● I am still active even if I am over 100 years old The overpass that straddles the railroad tracks at Ujiie Station was completed in 1903 (Meiji 36) and will be rebuilt in 1937 (Showa 12). The next year, the station main building will also be rebuilt. One Meiji building still remains in Ujiie Station, which has a history of more than 100 years. It was built in 1909 (Meiji 44) in a Lenga building called "Oil Warehouse (Ramp Hut)" on the uphill platform. ★ Let's walk, DISCOVER, and Ujiie's "Ujiie City Map" Ujiie has long been a major transportation hub. The ancient Higashiyama road and the medieval Oku-daido passed through, and in the Edo period, as a post town in the Oshu road, and when the Akutsu riverbank that made use of the water transportation of the Kinugawa was opened, the Aizu clan and other Oshu clan It became a gathering place for transporting rice to Edo, and side roads such as the Aizu Nishi Kaido, Aizu Naka Kaido, and Hara Kaido were also developed, and the Ujiiejuku and the Akutsu Riverbank were bustling as important points connecting Kanto and Oshu. In the 30th year of the Meiji era, the Nippon Railway at that time changed the route between Utsunomiya and Yaita stations, and Ujiie station was opened. Among the people who got off Ujiie station are Ujo Noguchi visiting the wife's parents' house in Kitsuregawa, Bokusui Wakayama visiting Kitsuregawa's friend Takashio Sokoyama, and Kawahigashi Hekigiri visiting Ujiie's kukai. .. Oya stone warehouses for grain storage are scattered throughout the city. Not only are there many houses, but there are about 100 buildings in the city area alone. The soft and warm texture is the charm of Oya stone, and Ishikura can be said to be one of the characteristics of the landscape of Ujiie.
