Ryogoku Fireworks Museum

Small exhibition area, but authentic instruction on the fireworks method used historically via video and text.

The history of Ryogoku fireworks is featured on Bunnell. In addition, real fireworks balls and launch tubes are on display, which is quite interesting. The inside of the building is very small, and you can finish watching it in 10 minutes, but it is recommended for those who are interested in fireworks. The location is in the back of the building, so it's a bit difficult to understand. There was also a memorial stamp. It might be interesting to make a set with the neighboring Koukoin. Unfortunately, this year's Sumida River Fireworks Festival has been canceled, but I hope to enjoy it again next year.

You can see it in about 15 minutes, which is rather narrow.

Do you know the word "flow (poured)". But I had said or "sink taxi" or "flow around the tavern", or now of age Will they've been on the other obsolete. He ran the road is the "Taxi of the sink", "sink tavern around" in the taxi to pick up guests at the roadside is get the money to sing the song in response to the request of around audience the tavern of the night holding a guitar or accordion occupation in seems to be rarely seen now. Later Saburo Kitajima became the singer is said to have been this flow. The etymology of this sink is old, dates back to the Edo period. Near Ryōgoku Bridge of the Edo era had been crowded with great downtown. If at the end of May is the Sumida River between the two countries Kawabiraki begins, near the Ryōgoku Bridge is Summer ship Hishimekiai, especially become a serious situation such as when the two countries fireworks. That between the crowded ship go by from the audience and painted the boat of the song, such as peddlers boat and Gidayu and voice-consuming, had been ending when the flow looking for the next boat. Edo these things of the boat seems to have is called "flow (poured)". While "Song of the flow" around the tavern has disappeared. "Taxi sink" seems to be still alive and well.

A museum where you can learn about the history of fireworks from Ryogoku Station. There is a small panel display that is awkward for free. The story of the director was easy to understand. I think that it is good to explain the emotion of Edo to guide foreigners.
