EDO - Nakano Tower Joganji


- quote -
Nakano-no-Tō 中野塔 Nakano no To Tower
The tower of Nakano was a three-storied pagoda which was said to have been
donated by 飯塚惣兵衛 Iizuka Sōbei during 寛永年間 the Kan'ei era (1624 -1643)
and was one of Edo's famous places along with the five-storied pagoda located in Kan'ei-ji Temple, Ueno.
It was located on the grounds of 宝仙寺 Hōsen-ji Temple, Chūō, Nakano Ward,
but burned down during the air raids of 1945 (the twentieth year of Shōwa).
