00:00OSAKA ON WAKA TELEVISION
00:07A giant glass bridge over the Kizugawa River
00:13The Kizugawa River is a riverbed with industrial areas
00:18There is a bridge here that has a mysterious shape
00:23What?
00:26Is this it?
00:29Isn't this it?
00:31It's huge!
00:33There are a lot of cars passing by
00:36It's a spiral
00:38It goes up to the other side of the river
00:42Amazing!
00:45This is the Senbonmatsu bridge connecting Nishinari Ward and Taisho Ward
00:50The slope is a spiral
00:54It's called a loop bridge
00:57Among the locals
00:59It's a glass bridge
01:01A glass bridge?
01:03You mean a glass bridge?
01:05It's called a glass bridge
01:10Why?
01:12Glass bridges are famous for their shape
01:17Let's take a look at the Senbonmatsu bridge from the sky
01:26It's in the shape of a glass
01:29Amazing!
01:31It's a giant glass bridge that can be seen from the sky
01:37Interesting
01:39It's rare for two loop bridges to cross the river
01:45That's right
01:47Even though there is a bridge
01:50There is a ferry under the bridge
01:53About 900 people use it a day
01:59There is such a magnificent bridge
02:03Why do people use the ferry?
02:07Isn't it better to use this bridge?
02:09Isn't it better to use this bridge?
02:12Let's ask the reason
02:15Because it's hard
02:17It's popular
02:19Is that so?
02:21Because it's hard
02:23It's hard
02:27Let's cross the river by bicycle
02:33It's heavy
02:35It's heavier than I thought
02:39The part that is in a spiral
02:42It's all high
02:47Wait a minute, it's not over yet
02:51That's possible
02:53The height of the bridge is 33 meters, equivalent to the height of the 11th floor of the apartment
02:59It's impossible
03:01Amazing
03:03It's high
03:05I'm a little scared
03:06It's as high as my feet
03:09Because it's a bridge, it took more than 10 minutes to cross
03:16What about a ferry?
03:19It feels good when the wind blows
03:23It's comfortable
03:26It's fast
03:30It takes only 2 minutes to arrive
03:33Arrival
03:35Of course, everyone gets on the ferry
03:39In the first place, this Megane Bridge was built more than 50 years ago
03:45It was built to improve the road traffic in this area where there were no bridges
03:51However, by making both ends a double loop bridge
03:55It is said that it is inconvenient for traffic other than cars
04:00Here is the problem
04:03The reason why a 33-meter-high bridge was built was because there was something around the river
04:10What is that?
04:13Today's Honwaka TV is a special edition
04:16Kansai that you don't know, a mysterious scenery special
04:22This time, it's Kansai that you don't know
04:27I asked three teams to write the quiz
04:30The team with the highest number of correct answers is
04:35Here it is
04:37What is it?
04:39It's big
04:41It's big
04:43Yamanashi Prefecture's Black Shine Muscat
04:46It's Fuji's shine
04:49Compared to the general Shine Muscat
04:52It has a rich and rich sweetness and a strong taste like a chrysanthemum
04:57It has a sweet taste like honey
05:03The skin itself is also delicious
05:06The price is 15,000 yen
05:14Can I have a bite?
05:19Master, please taste it
05:22Master, please taste it
05:25I'm not doing it with that kind of feeling
05:29I've never used something this rich
05:33Then I'll eat
05:41What is this?
05:44The skin is soft and hard
05:48Juicy and sweet
05:50Sweet and juicy
05:53I can't go back to the answering machine
05:56I'm the MC
05:58The first question
06:01What's around the skin?
06:04I don't know
06:06It's been 50 years, so there must be something
06:14Everyone, please answer
06:17Here it is
06:19Zousengyo
06:21Canberra and Hosei
06:23The boat's...
06:24Zousenjyo
06:30I've never heard of it
06:32The boat's lodging
06:33What's that?
06:34The boat's lodging
06:36If it's the boat's lodging, it's equal to Zousenjyo
06:39Why?
06:42The correct answer
06:45When they investigate around the bridge,
06:47it's an industrial area
06:50This is a factory wall
06:54There are mysterious paintings
06:58Why?
07:00Furthermore
07:02What's this?
07:04There's a mysterious object
07:07For some reason, there are artworks all over the city
07:13When they go out along the Kizunawa River
07:19Look at this
07:20What's this?
07:22There's a big pool
07:24What's this?
07:28What are you doing?
07:31Furthermore
07:34There's a big chain
07:36Look at this
07:38It's a very long chain
07:41There's also a huge squid
07:46It doesn't look like they're using it for something
07:51What is this place?
07:54It's an amazing place
07:57It's a mysterious Kizunawa area
08:04We asked Morishima-san, who knows Osaka's history
08:09Why was such a tall bridge built there?
08:14If you go back 60 years, you'll know the answer
08:2060 years ago?
08:33This is a photo from 60 years ago
08:37Isn't that a big ship?
08:41Where's Tomori?
08:43It's full of ships
08:46There are a lot of huge ships in Kizunawa
08:52What kind of area was this?
08:54There used to be a lot of shipyards in this area
09:00Shipyards?
09:03That's right
09:04There used to be a lot of shipyards in Kizunawa
09:09There used to be a lot of shipyards in Kizunawa
09:15During World War I, the ship's demand increased
09:21In 7 years, there were 32 shipyards in Kizunawa
09:3132 shipyards?
09:34That's why there are a lot of huge ships in Kizunawa
09:40They built such a tall bridge for safe passage
09:46Isn't the bridge really tall?
09:48Did they build such a big ship?
09:51That's right
09:52There was a ship called Fujinagata Zosenjo
09:55It was built after the war
09:58He went to Tokyo Olympics to build a ship
10:02Why didn't you tell me?
10:08The width of the river was 198 meters
10:12This ship is 178 meters long
10:16It was a great success
10:21Isn't that amazing?
10:24This place is the headquarters of Namura Zosenjo
10:30It looks like a big pool
10:33This is a dock for building and repairing ships
10:41Did ships stay here?
10:43That's right
10:44That's amazing
10:46In Kitakana-ya, Suminoe-ku, there are 3 other shipyards
10:56It was a town where thousands of people worked
11:01Let's talk to the people who worked at Zosenjo
11:07We built a freight ship from Greece
11:12A freight ship from Greece?
11:15At that time, Zosenjo was a very strict industry
11:20There was a big shipyard
11:24It was a very strict industry
11:38It has a great name
11:40Where did your father work?
11:43He worked at the shipyard
11:48We worked at the shipyard
11:51It was very cold at night
11:55I sweated a lot
11:59There is a relic of that time in Zosenjo
12:04This is the shipyard
12:07It's very big
12:09There are no pillars
12:13There is something written on the bottom
12:17What is this?
12:19This is the design
12:22It's written on the floor
12:26Because the ship is big
12:28If it's not a big place, it won't be written
12:32It's this big
12:34That's right
12:37The shipyard was full of people who worked at Zosenjo
12:44One of the things that made the shipyard lively was
12:48Shinsui-shiki
12:52It's raining
12:54The people of the town gathered together
12:58Shinsui-shiki is very sacred
13:03That's why there was a lot of people
13:07They wrapped rice cakes
13:12They wrapped rice cakes?
13:15There was also a brass band
13:19There were pigeons and balloons
13:24In the Zosen boom after the war
13:26There was a gorgeous Shinsui-shiki in Zosenjo
13:34The star entertainer who grew up in Zosen
13:39Kanpei Hanama
13:41He's handsome
13:44That's right
13:45Kitakagaya is the town where Kanpa-chan spent her youth
13:52Kanpa-chan, did you go to see Shinsui-shiki?
13:56I did
13:59I did
14:01You're lying
14:02It's true
14:03It was not only a hindrance to the Zosen industry
14:08It was the bridge that was built in 1973
14:13It was the bridge that was built in 1973
14:17However
14:20In the second half of the 1970s after the war
14:24Zosen went bankrupt due to oil shock
14:28The big Zosenjo withdrew from Osaka
14:34The Zosen industry that flourished in the past
14:39It went bankrupt
14:43They built such a magnificent bridge
14:46However, Kitakagaya is now using the Zosenjo site and the Aki factory
14:53They are changing their appearance to the city of art
14:57They are showing a new liveliness
15:00It's cool
15:02Watashibune was also planned to be demolished with the completion of the bridge
15:07But it survived due to the strong demand of the local residents
15:12As a result, Watashibune and the huge Megane Bridge coexist
15:18It is a precious landscape
15:20It is still a symbol of the city that flourished in Zosen
15:30Kanpa-chan, did you go to see Shinsui-shiki?
15:35I did
15:36What do you mean?
15:38I didn't know, so I kept saying
15:41No, no, no, no, no, no
15:45No way
15:47It's not a no way
15:50The ice on the park of Sakai City
15:56Ohama Park in Sakai City, Osaka
16:00It is a park that is about four times the size of the Koshien Stadium and is a place where people from all over the world come and go.
16:07What is the mysterious landscape here?
16:11It's kind of normal.
16:16What?
16:19Wait a minute. Is this it?
16:23It looks like this.
16:25This is not a yugu, is it?
16:27A cage?
16:30It looks like a gauge.
16:33There is a large cage in the corner of the square.
16:37What's inside?
16:40There are monkeys!
16:43Look!
16:45There are a lot of monkeys.
16:48There are more than 40 monkeys in the cage.
16:53There are no other animals around.
16:56Why are people here?
16:59Do you know when the monkeys came here?
17:03I don't know.
17:06I feel like I was here when I first came here.
17:09That was decades ago.
17:12Decades ago?
17:14There was a newspaper.
17:16There was a newspaper?
17:17It was too loud.
17:19Wait a minute.
17:21That's why I didn't sell it.
17:25According to the residents in the neighborhood, it used to be a monkey mountain.
17:29The people who came to the park fed the monkeys too much.
17:32The monkeys became metagons.
17:34That's why it's a cage now.
17:37But no one knows why there are monkeys.
17:41If you look at the end of the story,
17:45it says that Emperor Meiji was executed.
17:50That's why Emperor Meiji came to this park.
17:57I feel sorry for the people in the neighborhood.
18:00I don't think it's a special park to visit.
18:06There is no other clue.
18:10I saw it from the park.
18:12I found it!
18:13There is a big elephant.
18:16Wait a minute.
18:18He's holding a hand.
18:20Isn't that an elephant of a monkey?
18:23Isn't that a monkey?
18:25What?
18:26Thank you very much.
18:28Let's go to Sakai City Hall, which manages the park to find out the truth.
18:34There is a photo of Ohama Park.
18:40Wait a minute.
18:42Isn't it close to the atmosphere now?
18:45That's right.
18:55Isn't there a lot of buildings?
18:58That's right.
18:59It's modern.
19:01It's like a mansion where a rich man lives.
19:07Here's the question.
19:10Why is there a monkey cage in Ohama Park?
19:14Please think about this photo as a hint.
19:17Let's think about it.
19:19Why is there a monkey cage in Ohama Park?
19:25Hurry up.
19:29That was fast.
19:30It's a dead animal.
19:31It's a monkey.
19:34Please give us the answer.
19:37I found it.
19:39Why is there a monkey cage in Ohama Park?
19:41Because a monkey swam in the pool.
19:44That's right.
19:48Wait a minute.
19:49What's the reason now?
19:52It's the same team, but the monkey swam in the pool.
19:55It's because the number of monkeys has increased.
20:00It's a long time.
20:02The other team is the school.
20:04There are a lot of birds in the school.
20:06There are a lot of animals.
20:09That's why the monkey is in the school.
20:12I see.
20:13There was an amusement park.
20:15There was a park in the corner of the amusement park.
20:22That's why the monkey swam in the park.
20:25I see.
20:26Is that right?
20:27That's right.
20:28I'm sure of it.
20:32I'm sure of it.
20:34There was a team.
20:38What's the answer?
20:48The secret of the mysterious scenery with a monkey cage in Ohama Park.
20:53The key to solving the mystery of the 85-year-old photo
20:57What is this building?
21:01What is it?
21:02This is the aquarium in Sakai
21:04Aquarium?
21:06What kind of aquarium?
21:08Wow!
21:09What a magnificent building!
21:12This statue
21:14Wait a minute
21:16This statue...
21:18I saw this statue just now
21:21Yes, the statue seen from Ohama Park
21:24It was a replica of the statue that was once a symbol of the aquarium
21:30And in front of the aquarium
21:32There is something like a monkey mountain
21:35On the map at the time
21:38This is it
21:40There is a photo of Sarugashima
21:43It was such a magnificent Saruyama
21:46Yes, Sarugashima is a cool name
21:50There were not only monkeys in the park
21:52Elephants, deers, and butterflies
21:57I was wondering why there were monkeys in the aquarium
22:01Because there was an animal park
22:04There are still monkeys there
22:07In the old days, the aquarium and the animal park were also built
22:12It was a huge leisure facility
22:15The correct answer is
22:17Because there used to be an aquarium and an animal park in Ohama Park
22:23But why was an aquarium and an animal park built in Ohama Park?
22:30Mr. Kawakami, who knows the history of Sakai, went to the Central Library of Sakai City
22:37He will show us the valuable materials at that time
22:41This is it
22:43This is the first aquarium
22:46It was built in 1903
22:49In Sakai
22:51It's like a museum now
22:53There was a National Museum of Japan
22:55National Museum of Japan
22:57It was held in both Tennoji and Sakai
23:00The aquarium was built in Sakai
23:05As the second pavilion of the 5th National Museum of Japan held in Tennoji, the present New World
23:13The aquarium was built in the land of Sakai's Ohama Park
23:17At that time, it was the largest aquarium in the world
23:21It is said that it was very popular in a row
23:25A lot of people came
23:28Meiji Tennoji is also coming
23:32I heard that a lot of people came
23:36Yes, it was connected
23:39When I went here earlier
23:41There was a stone monument engraved with the letters of Meiji Tennoji
23:45It was exactly where I came to Ohama Park
23:49And even after the National Museum of Japan Expo, the aquarium continued to operate
23:55Finally, Ohama Public Road, which was operated by the Shoujo Kagekidan
23:59The Ohama Shioyu, which is a public bath facility, was built
24:03This area was developed into a major land
24:08Therefore, the Hankai train also opened from Shukuin to the coast of Ohama
24:14I heard that there were about 50,000 users a day
24:19The number of users per day of the current Hankai train is about 20,000
24:27When I heard the number, I really thought that there were many people
24:33However, what attacked this land in 1934 was
24:38Moroto Typhoon
24:40In the Moroto Typhoon that came in the 9th year of the Showa era, it was in a state of half-declaration
24:45When I was repairing it, a fire broke out again
24:48I had to rebuild the aquarium
24:52At that time, I built the zoo with the aquarium
24:55Wow, there was such a sad history
25:00I see
25:03The aquarium was rebuilt at Ohama Park in 1937
25:10And in addition to outdoor stages and various leisure facilities
25:15The zoo was built and further powered up
25:19Many people came from all over the country and it became a very popular spot in Kansai
25:30I think it was a large-scale leisure facility
25:35That's right
25:36It was really lively
25:38It was full of people
25:39Really?
25:40When I was a kid
25:43And with the rapid economic growth, the coast of Ohama Park was filled with industrial areas
25:51The number of visitors declined at once
25:54In addition, the Sakai Aquarium was damaged again by the 2nd Moroto Typhoon in 1961
26:02It finally became a museum
26:06What about other animals?
26:09Elephants and camels were all taken away
26:14I see
26:16Why did only monkeys remain?
26:19I don't think it was popular
26:21I think there was no one to take it
26:24I see
26:25Is that the reason?
26:27That's why they stayed here?
26:29That's right
26:30I'm getting a little sad
26:33I'm getting a little sad
26:35I'm getting a little sad
26:38However, monkeys are still loved by the people
26:42We made a special greeting
26:45Don't attack me
26:47Thank you for teaching me the history of the aquarium and zoo
26:51Thank you
26:54The monkeys of Ohama Park were a proof that this area was a large-scale leisure facility
27:03Ms. Matsumi said there was a zoo
27:08So it's correct

31:34Takarazuka is coming
31:36It's coming from Takarazuka
31:38Coming
31:41It's not coming from Nishinomiya
31:46It's coming from Nishinomiya
31:48It's coming
31:50It's stopped
31:52It's coming
31:54It's coming from Nishinomiya and Takarazuka
31:56It's weird
31:58They are walking very slowly
32:00What happened next?
32:05If you know the answer, please answer.
32:09Shida-kun, go ahead.
32:12One of them is down and the other one is up.
32:15You can't avoid them.
32:19It's like a ninja house.
32:22You turn your back like this.
32:27Nagi?
32:29Do you want to change your clothes?
32:31Why?
32:34What will happen next?
32:40This bridge is on the other side.
32:43There is a rumor that if two people cross at the same time, something strange will happen.
32:51I'm walking slowly.
32:59I stopped.
33:04Are you going to walk the crab?
33:07The person who came next?
33:10The person who came after that?
33:13The person who walks the crab at the moment of crossing.
33:17Actually, this bridge is 60 cm wide and very narrow.
33:29Therefore, if you don't walk the crab when you cross, you can't pass.
33:35And sometimes you have to put your bag in front of you like a train.
33:40If you don't have the spirit of giving up, you can't cross the bridge.
33:43I wonder if there are times when people cross at the same time.
33:46The secret of this narrow bridge is this pipe under the bridge.
33:52Actually, there is a reservoir on the Takarazuka side of the bridge.
33:55This is a pipe made to supply the reservoir to the coast.
34:01And this bridge was built in the 1950s to inspect the reservoir.
34:09It's convenient to go to the station.
34:13It's convenient.
34:15When you go from Nishinomiya to Takarazuka Station, cross this bridge and it's about 5 minutes away.
34:22In response to the citizens' requests, the Takarazuka Reservoir Bureau has opened the bridge so that anyone can use it.
34:31If Pete passes through here, you can sleep on your back and follow him.
34:38Sorry, I'm Pete.
34:40Oh, I'm sorry.
34:42This is a must-see bridge between Takarazuka and Nishinomiya.
34:48The game will continue today.
34:53It's not a correct answer, but it's close to what Ishida-kun and Inoue-kun said, so it's correct.
35:05Next is the final question.
35:10A huge station in Kyoto Keiba Castle.
35:13This is perfect.
35:15Kyoto Keiba Castle.
35:17Wow, amazing.
35:22It's so big.
35:25It's so big.
35:27It's about 100 times bigger than I imagined.
35:30Horses are running here.
35:33Kyoto Keiba Castle has a variety of famous places such as the Spring Emperor's Palace, the Kikka Castle, and the Queen Elizabeth Castle.
35:44It was opened in 1925, the 14th year of the Taisho era, and is the 100th anniversary of its opening next year.
35:53What is the biggest feature of Kyoto Keiba Castle?
35:58Wait a minute, look.
36:00It's a pond in the middle.
36:02Behind the sign, it's all big ponds.
36:08The scenery of the racecourse running through the pond is a specialty of Kyoto Keiba Castle.
36:18Actually, this scenery is rare all over the country.
36:22For example, in Kansai, there are 10 racecourses, such as Hanshin Keiba Castle,
36:28but only Kyoto Keiba Castle has a pond in the middle.
36:32Is that so?
36:35Let's go closer to the pond.
36:42It's really big up close.
36:45Yes, it's quite big.
36:48It's really big.
36:49In terms of area, it's about 60,000 square meters.
36:52In terms of land area, it's about 1.5 square meters.
36:55Only the pond?
36:56So you can play baseball here?
36:58Yes, that's how big it is.
37:02However, since the middle is all ponds, it's very inconvenient for the workers to go inside.
37:12I see.
37:14Here's a question.
37:17Why is there a pond in the middle of Kyoto Keiba Castle, even though it's so inconvenient?
37:23Let's think about it.
37:25Why is there a pond in the middle of Kyoto Keiba Castle?
37:28Kanshin Keiba Castle has a pond.
37:30Hasn't it?
37:31Kyoto Keiba Castle.
37:33Now, please give us your answer.
37:38Mr. Uchie's answer is Jousui Castle.
37:41For example, if it's something that's been around for a long time,
37:45it's inconvenient because you have to go around a lot.
37:48So I think you'll lose it.
37:50But if you haven't lost it, it's something that's necessary for your life.
37:54Mr. Non-Style and Mr. Nagi's answer is the boat race.
37:57I think there was a time when you could enjoy a boat race with a horse.
38:03I see.
38:04Now, what about Ms. Kanba and Mr. Hosei?
38:07Well, I'm a horse, so I practice a lot and swim a lot.
38:16Let's see the correct answer.
38:18Here you go.
38:20Now, the correct answer.
38:23Kyoto Keiba Castle is located in the middle of Kyoto Keiba Castle, even though it's inconvenient.
38:29In 1999, when they did a water quality survey,
38:33they found a shell living in a beehive in this pond.
38:39Furthermore, looking at the surrounding map and continuing the survey,
38:43they found an even more uncomfortable feeling.
38:46If you look at this map, that's Mukai Island, right?
38:50Yes, that's Mukai.
38:51And if you go up a little more, it's Yoshijima?
38:54Yes, this is Yoshijima.
38:56When I came here, I passed through Chusho Island.
39:02Aren't there a lot of islands around here?
39:05Yes, there are a lot of islands around here.
39:07The address of this Keiba Castle is also called Yoshijima Watashibajima-cho.
39:11Oh, it's an island.
39:14That's right.
39:15For some reason, there are many islands around Kyoto Keiba Castle.
39:20Even though it's far from the sea, there are rice fields and fields around it,
39:25so it doesn't look like an island at first glance.
39:29Kyoto Keiba Castle is celebrating its 100th anniversary next year,
39:33so the Keiba Castle was built here 99 years ago,
39:38but I don't know much about that time.
39:42So, they went to a local library to investigate what it used to look like.
39:47And then...
39:50Look, is it okay to step on it?
39:55What is this?
39:56A map?
39:58There's a map.
40:00Oh, there was Kyoto Keiba Castle earlier.
40:05What's this blue thing?
40:07Is it a pond?
40:09It's probably water.
40:10It's connected.
40:18What is this?
40:20What is this?
40:22What is this?
40:23What is this?
40:24According to the map from 100 years ago,
40:27there used to be a big pond where Kyoto Keiba Castle used to be.
40:33So, the answer is that the Keiba Castle was built where the pond used to be.
40:39It's difficult.
40:42And next to it is...
40:44And next to it is...
40:46Wait a minute.
40:47If the blue thing is a pond, does that mean all of this is a pond?
40:50There's a huge pond a little far from the Keiba Castle.
40:56Oh my!
40:57There was a huge pond on the east side of Kyoto Keiba Castle where the rice fields are now.
41:07Let's ask Mr. Wakabayashi, who knows a lot about Kyoto's geography and history.
41:12I saw a map earlier.
41:15I saw a map that said there was a big pond around here.
41:20If you look here, you can see that the pond was spread out all over the back.
41:25Was this all a pond?
41:27It's not all rice fields.
41:28The north side of the pond is just in front of the mountain where you can see the castle on the other side.
41:33Just in front of the mountain?
41:35It's called Ogura Pond.
41:37Ogura Pond.
41:39In the past, there was a huge pond called Ogura Pond in Uji City, Kumiyama Town, Fushimiku City, Kyoto City.
41:49The size of the pond is 800 hectares.
41:52The size of the pond is 800 hectares.
41:57The Keiba Castle in Kyoto is said to be part of the Ogura Pond that once existed.
42:05I have a map here.
42:07It's a map of when the pond was spread out.
42:11This is the Uji River.
42:13The flow has changed a lot since then.
42:17I think this area is the Keiba Castle.
42:19This area?
42:21The area around the Kyoto Keiba Castle used to be connected to the Uji River.
42:26The Uji River is also connected to Biwako.
42:31The shell that was found at the Kyoto Keiba Castle is thought to have flowed from Biwako and been left behind.
42:41Let's take a look at a map of the area where the Ogura Pond used to be.
42:46If you look at it, there are a lot of islands.
42:48The pond is gone, but the name of the island is still there.
42:52Mukai Island and Makishima Island are still there.
42:55The name of the island is still there because it was an island.
43:00There is a landscape from the time when there was such a pond.
43:04We came to the old Yamadake residence.
43:11What is this?
43:14A boat?
43:15Yes.
43:16Originally, this boat did not float in the Ogura Pond.
43:19What is this boat for?
43:22The purpose is fishing.
43:25Fishing?
43:26You were fishing with this.
43:28That means there are a lot of fish there.
43:32In the Ogura Pond, fishing was popular.
43:37The Ogura Pond, where a lot of freshwater fish were caught, including carp and boats, was a valuable food source near Kyoto City, where the sea was far away.
43:47It is said that there is still a culture of eating river fish in this area.
43:55Hello.
43:58There are a lot of boats lined up.
44:03Funashin, located in Fushimi-ku, Kyoto City, has been in operation for more than 70 years.
44:08It is a specialty store of river fish.
44:12Is there a culture of eating river fish?
44:15Yes.
44:16This area has been far from the sea for a long time.
44:19I think there are people who come to buy from the place where the Ogura Pond was.
44:26In addition, the Ogura Pond is also famous as a tourist attraction of Hasu.
44:31It is said that many people came here to see the sightseeing boats.
44:37In addition, it was a pond with a lot of food, sightseeing, and charm, such as fishing.
44:45Why did it disappear?
44:48After the Meiji era, the Uji River was replaced.
44:54Until then, the Uji River was connected widely, and it was a pond that could circulate with the water of the Uji River.
45:00However, when it was replaced, it was cut off and water from the outside became difficult to enter.
45:07The Ogura Pond, where water pollution was a problem, was completely separated from the Uji River.
45:15As a result, the circulation of water was lost, dirt and mold occurred, and it became a new pond.
45:25So, from 1933 to 1941, the Ogura Pond was reborn as a rice field.
45:36In fact, in the period of food shortage after the war, a lot of rice could be harvested here.
45:44Indeed, there were a lot of rice fields.
45:48So, from fishing to farming, the Ogura Pond has changed.
45:52It's not that nothing has disappeared, but it has changed to a different life.
45:58The Ogura Pond was a famous place for sightseeing boats, such as fishing, fishing, and sightseeing.
46:09It was a pond in the middle of Kyoto Keiba Castle that left its mark.
46:17Unfortunately, the team is correct.
46:22The winner is the team of S.J. and the genius pianist.
46:28The winner is the team of S.J. and the genius pianist.
46:31The winner is the team of S.J. and the genius pianist.
46:37It's a luxury.
46:40It's big.
46:42If you sell it to Shichiya, it will be sold out.
46:46If you want to watch today's program again, please go to TVer.
46:50Next time, we will visit a place where you can feel like an adventurer in a residential area.
46:55We will investigate a place where you can see the world beyond the door.
46:59It's not a factory at all.
