The First Day of Travel to Kyokutei Bakin and Hakkenden-related Place.

In the first day of travel to Kyokutei Bakin and Hakkenden-related place, I walked around in Tokyo capital.

Kyokutei Bakin lived in Fukagawa, the central of Edo.

But his grave is in Zojo Temple, 5 minutes walking from Tokyo Metro Myougatani Sta.

Bakin's son and wife passed away before Bakin died.

Bakin's sorrow was incredible.

In this point, some said Bakin is similar to Mark Twain.

In Zojo Temple, it was too hot but silent.

But Bakin's grave can't be sufficiently maintained.

The flower was corrupted.

Zojo Temple may be the symbol of Bakin, so it's NG.

I was likely to hot stroke; I immediately returned and bought 500ml water.

Should I have poured Bakin's grave the water?

For 3 minutes walking from JR Shinanomachi Sta, there is Bakin's death place.

But now, it has no trace left.

Bakin passed away when he wrote "Kinseisetsu Bishounen Roku（近世説美少年録）"

It's said that Kinseisetsu Bishounen Roku wasn't a moralistic novel, near to modern novels.

Tsubouchi Shoyo's evaluation to Bakin would be different if this novel had been completed.

I ate soba in Shinanochou Station.

It was refleshing and tasty.

About 5 minutes walking from Tokyo Metro Kiyosumi Shirakawa Sta, there is a former birth place of Bakin.

But, it has also no trace left

In this silent place, why did Bakin intend to become a writer despite a samurai?

Some said Hakkenden is similar to Macbeth, a novel of Shakespeare.

The effect of Hakkenden should have been strong.

But now, why isn't it famous?

With tired emotion because of hot, I went to Tateyama's hotel.
