Walk through the city of Shimoichi, the gateway to Yoshino. Many attractive companies remain in this town, which was under the direct control of the Shogunate during the Edo period, but it has also developed as a post town for worshiping Yoshino, and many traditional buildings still remain. I would like to enjoy walking around the city while following the back roads and remembering the prosperity of the past.
吉野の玄関口である下市の街を歩きます。江戸時代には天領であったこの街には魅力的な自社が数多く残されていますが、吉野参拝の宿場町としても発展し、今なお多くの伝統的な建築物が残されています。裏道をたどりながら、往時の繁栄を偲びつつ、街歩きを楽しみたいと思います。
