A street that runs from north to south through the southern part of Chuo Ward, Osaka City. It is about 750 meters from Shinsaibashi to Ebisubashi. Shinsaibashi is a bridge that spanned the old Nagahori (filled in, a parking lot), and today, a stone arch bridge that was replaced in 1909 (Meiji 42) remains as an overpass. It is said that during the Genna era (1615-1624), Fushimi townsman Okada Shinzo Shinsai and others excavated the Nagahori, and in 1662 (Kanbun 2), built a bridge in front of his own house, which became Shinsaibashi. Shinsaibashi-suji connects the tea houses and restaurants of Horie and Shinmachi with the theater district of Dotonbori, and initially the north end prospered, but after the Meiji era, the south end prospered. The Midosuji subway line opened in 1937, and the Nagahori Tsurumi Ryokuchi subway line opened in 1996. The downtown shopping district, centered around the Daimaru and Sogo department stores (closed in 2009), has developed into a place with many specialty stores selling Western goods, jewelry, musical instruments, and more. Americamura and Europe Street are also bustling areas for young people. [Tsukasa Yasui] [Reference] |Minami-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture (present-day Chuo-ku).

大阪市中央区南部を南北に通じる街路。心斎橋から南へ戎橋(えびすばし)に至る約750メートルをいう。心斎橋は旧長堀(埋立て。駐車場)に架かっていた橋で、現在は、1909年(明治42)に架け替えた石造のアーチ橋が陸橋として残っている。元和(げんな)年間(1615~1624)に伏見(ふしみ)の町人岡田新三心斎らが長堀を掘削、1662年(寛文2)自分の屋敷の前に橋を架けたのが心斎橋であるといわれている。心斎橋筋は、堀江、新町の待合、料亭と、道頓堀(どうとんぼり)の芝居町とを結び、最初北詰(きたづめ)が栄えたが、明治以後は南詰が繁栄した。1937年(昭和12)地下鉄御堂筋線(みどうすじせん)が通じ、1996年(平成8)に地下鉄長堀鶴見(つるみ)緑地線が開通した。大丸、そごうデパート(2009年閉店)を中心とした都心商店街が発展し、洋品雑貨、貴金属、楽器などの専門店が多い。また、アメリカ村、ヨーロッパ通りは若者の街としてにぎわっている。 [安井 司] [参照項目] |大阪府大阪市南区(現在の中央区)。『大阪府写真帖』(1914年〈大正3〉)国立国会図書館所蔵"> 心斎橋筋(大正時代) 大阪府大阪市南区(現在の中央区)。『浪花名勝』(1910年〈明治43〉)国立国会図書館所蔵"> 心斎橋(明治時代) 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
