浅草寺の神木いちょう、歴史を感じて。
The Sacred Ginkgo Tree of Sensō-jiの特徴
浅草寺の神木であるいちょうは、源頼朝が植えたと伝わる特別な木です。
1945年の空襲で被害を受けたが、歴史を背負った樹木として今も大切にされています。
いちょうの中心は空洞で、根元から木の中を見渡せる独特の形状を楽しめます。
Lovely tree, indeed charred black on the inside from WW2 damage
Sensoji Temple's Sacred Ginkgo Tree浅草寺の神木・いちょうThe Sacred Ginkgo Tree of Sensō-jiDesignated a natural monument in 1930, after heavy damage in the 10 March 1945 fire bombings of Tokyo by the Allied Forces, the monument status was revoked.Similar to ムクノキ 椋の木 (中が空洞) oriental elm w/ hollow center at the west end of Ueno's Panda Bridge, the center of the gingko trunk is hollow and it is possible to see right through the tree's base.Adjacent to the Kannon-mae Police Box (Koban) and the marker for the original five story pagoda destroyed during the fire bombings.
I first saw this amazingly beautiful ginkgo (いちょう) in April 2017.The main sign nearby says: "Sensoji Temple's sacred ginkgo tree Located southeast of the main hall of Sensoji Temple, this ginkgo tree is said to have sprouted from a branch planted by Minamoto no Yoritomo when he visited Sensoji Temple. In 1930, it was designated a natural monument by the Ministry of Education, but most of it was destroyed in the war on March 10, 1945. The designation as a natural monument has now been revoked, but it is still revered by many people as a sacred tree that survived the war damage." (Translated by Google Translate)
