The birthplace of Edo Kabuki

last updated：

    • Other famous places
    Edo Kabuki began in 1624, when Saruwaka Kanzaburo (also known as Nakamura Kanzaburo I) raised the yagura (a ritual drum tower signaling an official theater) at Nakabashi-minamichi for the Saruwaka-za (later renamed the Nakamura-za). The commemorative monument at this site features the words "Birthplace of Edo Kabuki" inscribed in the traditional Kantei-ryu calligraphy style. It also includes historical descriptions in both English and Japanese, alongside a vivid relief carving depicting the spirited figures of Kabuki actors.
