Akita, Japan - Senshu Park & Kubota Castle (2019)
Kubota Castle (久保田城 Kubota-jō) is a Japanese castle in the city Akita, Akita Prefecture, Japan. Throughout the Edo period, Kubota Castle was home to the Satake clan, daimyō of Kubota Domain, rulers of northern Dewa Province. The castle was also known as Yadome-jō (矢留城) or Kuzune-jō (葛根城). In the official documents of the Tokugawa shogunate, the castle was called Akita-jō (秋田城), although this name is now more commonly used to refer to the Nara period fortified settlement of Akita Castle which was nearby.
Akita (秋田市 Akita-shi, Japanese: [aꜜki̥ta]) is the capital city of Akita Prefecture, Japan, and has been designated a core city since 1 April 1997.
The city, which covers an area of 906.09 square kilometres (349.84 sq mi), had an estimated population of 314,662 in October 2016, giving a population density of 347 persons per km2.
The area of present-day Akita was part of ancient Dewa Province, and has been inhabited for thousands of years. The Jizōden ruins within the city limits are a major archaeological site with artifacts from the Japanese Paleolithic period through the Jōmon and Yayoi periods. During the Nara period, the Yamato court established Akita Castle in 733 AD to bring the local Emishi tribes under its control. The area was ruled by a succession of local samurai clans in the Sengoku period, before coming under the control of the Satake clan of Kubota Domain during the Edo period. Under the Tokugawa shogunate, a castle town developed around Kubota Castle.

Throughout the Edo period, Kubota Castle, located in the prefecture of Akita (northern Japan), was home to the Satake clan, daimyo of Kubota Domain, rulers of northern Dewa Province. Reassigned to Dewa Province from the clan's ancestral territories by Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1602, Satake Yoshinobu immediately started the construction of the Kubota Castle and it is only in August 1604, two years later that the Castle and its keep was finished.
Thanks to its wealthy lands and prosperous farmers, the small city around the castle started to grow year after year and what used to be known in the past as the Kubota Castle Town is now, Akita city, the administrative center of Akita prefecture.

아키타 지역의 역사 기록은 그렇게 오래되진 않았다. 17세기초 도쿠가와 이에야스로부터 미움을 산 사다케가문이 이곳으로 쫓겨나면서부터다. 시내 중심에 옛 성터가 남아 있다. 사다케 집안의 마지막 번주, 사다케 요시다카다. 에도시대를 그리워 하는듯하다.

눈이 꽤 왔지만 고속도로는 큰 문제가 없다. 300년 아키타 역사를 만날 수 있는 곳 가쿠노다테의 무사마을이다. 에도시대, 검은 색의 벽은 무사들의 집이라는 표시다. 벚꽃이 유명하지만 설경도 뒤지지 않는듯하다. 몇 몇 집은 3백에서 5백엔 정도의 입장료를 내야 한다. 이 집은 아오야기라는 권세있던 무사의 저택. 다다미방, 주방. 모두 사용하던 그대로다. 가장 관심을 끄는 볼거리는 무기관이었다. 영화나 만화에서 본듯한 모자들이 눈길을 끌었다. 저 총은 모두 실제 사용한 것이고 칼도 모두 진검이다. 또 다른 무사의 집. 이와하시가라고 적혀 있다. 사람들이 가장 많이 모이는 집. 가쿠노다테에 대한 옛이야기가 펼쳐지는 곳이다. ‘어떻게 이렇게 재미있게 이야기할 수 있을까?’하는 표정이다. 전통 화로, 이로리 옆에서 피어오르는 옛이야기. 도쿠가와 이에야스와 쫒겨난 아키타의 번주 이야기는 최고의 관광 상품이다.

The Imperial Palace eastern Garden in tokyo, Japan - Chiyoda castle
Maput CHAnnel
#japan #chiyoda #imperial
The Imperial Palace is the home of the emperor of Japan. It is found in the Chiyoda Ward of Tokyo. The history of this palace dates back to the time when the capitulation of the shogunate and the age of the Meiji Restoration happened. In that period of time, Shogun Tokugawa Yoshinobu was forced to leave the Edo Castle and that is when the Emperor moved in for a short period of time. This was also the point in time where the castle went from being called the Edo Castle to the Tokei (Tokyo) Castle.
The emperor left for Kyoto for a little while and upon his return, he decided to rename the castle once again to its present name now, the Imperial Castle. To clarify, the castle is not the same as the palace. In that point in time, the Imperial Palace wasn’t even constructed yet. It wasn’t until the fire which burned down the Nishinomaru Palace that the Imperial Palace became an actual project for the Imperial family.
The Nishinomaru Palace, which used to be the household or residence of the shogun, burned down in the year of 1873. The area did not go to waste though as this was the perfect site to build the new Imperial Palace Castle. This new Imperial Palace Castle was built and finished in the year of 1888.
The palace has changed a lot since that time. Presently, the Imperial Palace has exceeded the area once occupied by the former Edo Castle. Advancements in technology and design influenced the modern palace called Kyuden to be made with various imperial court function rooms and reception areas. This growth in the area also made it possible to accommodate the current emperor and empress’ residence in the Fukiage Gardens.
There have also been major changes to the functions of the various grounds in the vicinity of the palace. The west citadel, where the Nisihnomaru Palace used to be, is now occupied by not only the Imperial Palace but also the Imperial Household Agency. This agency is an agency of the Japanese government whose task is to manage any state matters that involve the Imperial Family. Alongside this responsibility are the added duties of keeping the Privy Seal and the State Seal of Japan.
Going back to the present configuration of the ground in the palace, the palace of today is now a renovated version of itself. What used to be isolated portions of structures now stand as one interconnected complex. This design was made possible through the work of the Takenaka Corporation who finished construction on this complex in 1968.
The Kyuden is made up of six major wings namely the Seiden State Function Hall, Homeiden State Banquet Hall, Chowaden Reception Hall, Rensui Dining Room, Chigusa Chidori Drawing Room, and the Emperor’s Work Office. Within these halls are corridors that serve different purposes. An example of these halls would be the Matsu no Ma or the Pine Chamber. It is in this chamber that the emperor entertains the prime minister. This is also where the appointing of major government positions like the ambassadors, Ministers of State, and Chief Justice is done so there are obviously a lot of national events that still happen within these walls.
The grounds of the East Garden also wasn’t always how it is now. In the earlier years, this area used to be where the Honmaru and Ninomaru areas were. These areas were where structures like the donjon or keep stood before it got burned down by the Meiriki fire of 1657. Nowadays, the East Garden is where the majority of the government buildings are found.
Aside from holding the administrative structure, the East Garden is also the part of the palace where you can find the establishments like the Imperial Tokagakudo Music Hall, Music Department of the Board of Ceremonies of the Imperial Household, Museum of the Imperial Collections, and much more. There were also some structures that had to be removed, like the stables and housing, to make the most recent changes possible.
The work on this area began in the year of 1961 and it started with the pond you will find in
