Okayama Bell Tower

Jiangyan Times に Moment を Know らせる Installation for の

Original Text

It's like reading. Keep the time informed by ringing the bell. It is said that there were two people in charge for that. There was no clock in the Edo period, so it must have been necessary to inform the people. How many bells and what time was it? I was wondering if I would go home when the temple bell rang in the nursery rhyme. It's a simple question, but how do people who ring the bell know the time?

It was built in 1712.

It is very close to Wakayama Castle. In the Edo period, this bell was telling the time to the person 々. It seems that he also played a role in informing people of emergency times. I want to hear the raw sound.

History ある Bell Tower

Original Text

"Okayama no Tokishodo" is located in the south side area separated from Wakayama Castle by one road. It was installed during the time of Yoshimune Tokugawa, and there is a Bonsho in the old wooden two-story bell tower. It is a pity that you do not know what it looks like or what tone it looks like from the appearance of the bell tower.

Yoshimune Tokugawa was built.

According to the explanation, the cannon in the Osaka Castle was built as a bell that tells the time during the time of the feudal lord Yoshimune. It is located in a small mountain adjacent to the Prefectural Museum of Art. In modern times, you can measure time with watches, but at that time you were telling time like this. I thought that it was made to correct the looseness of the feudal retainer (lateness of the castle, etc.) because of the disciplined work.

The bell tower's bonsho seems to have been rebuilt from a large cylinder used in the summer siege of Osaka. It seems that the thing created to kill and kill was later used to inform the castle person 々 of the time and the emergency.
