The Bell of Time, Kokumachi
The sound of the bell that informed the people of Edo city (Designated Cultural Property, capital)
It is a bell that informed the people under Edo Castle of the time, and is said to have been installed in Kokumachi (now near Nihonbashi Muromachi 4-chome) during the era of the second shogun Hidetada.
Because there was Nagasakiya nearby, there is Kawayanagi saying, "The bell of Kokumachi can be heard to the Netherlands." It was recasted in 1711 (1711), and is now housed with a bell tower in Jisshi Park.
