三条大橋
天正十八年(1590)架設
当時からの擬宝珠を今に伝え、東海道五十三次の昔を偲ぶにふさわしく、橋畔の柳、可憐な舞妓、都情緒豊かな所である。
一昨年撮影した三条大橋の様子。
拙い写真でゴメンナサイ…。
右のビルの一階はスタバ。
あと、福だるまで有名な船はしやさんもすぐ傍にあります。
少し歩いたところには、池田屋跡地に建てられた居酒屋さんも。
豆本の説明文にある柳の木も見えます。
ビルが建って随分近代的にはなったけれど、昔の趣もちゃんと残していていいな。

Sanjo Bridge,Kyoto.
This is 13 page of an old miniature book of Kyoto.
A summary page is here.
Sanjō Ōhashi (三条大橋?) is a bridge in Kyoto, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. It spans the Kamo River as part of Sanjō-dōri (三条大通り Third Avenue). It is well-known because it served as the ending location for journeying on both the Nakasendō and the Tōkaidō; these were two of the famous “Five Routes” for long distance travelers during the Edo Period in Japan’s past.
It is unclear when this bridge was first built, but there are records of Toyotomi Hideyoshi orders for it to be repaired in 1590,[1] as well as one of the original giboshi (擬宝珠) (onion-shaped posts that are located on bridges, shrines and temples in Japan).
The current concrete bridge, which includes two lanes for driving and a walking path on either side, was built in 1950.

This bridge and Kamogawa are also beautiful now.
