Where Power and Scholarship Shaped Edo

Residencia Kasuga Andozaka stands on land once granted to Kasuga no Tsubone, the influential wet nurse and political confidante of Tokugawa Iemitsu. The neighborhood quietly carries the legacy of one of Edo’s most formidable female power figures.

Nearby, Koishikawa Korakuen Garden reflects a different layer of history. Renovated by Tokugawa Mitsukuni, the garden was shaped under the philosophical influence of Confucian scholar Zhu Shunshui, embodying the intellectual spirit that flourished during the Edo period.

A residence where authority, philosophy, and cultivated landscape converge into a refined chapter of Tokyo’s historical narrative.

COMSHOUSE

Kanda Matsushita-cho was once a place of intensity.

Home to the Genbukan, the famed dojo of Chiba Shūsaku— one of Edo’s most influential swordsmen— this district stood at the intersection of samurai land and townspeople’s quarters. A boundary not of separation, but of exchange.

Nearby, Tōjō Ichidō’s Yōchijuku served as a center of Confucian learning. Here, martial discipline and scholarship coexisted— body and mind trained in parallel.

It was a ground where aspirants refined both technique and spirit. The heat of Edo, not extinguished, only absorbed into the city.
