Winter-WATO#012

【長土塀町のこも掛け】 長土塀町は名の通り、路地には土塀が長く続いています。 金沢の水分の多い雪による土塀の損傷を防ぐために、12月上旬に、長町武家屋敷跡界隈では土塀を寒さや雪から守る「こも」を掛ける作業を行い、本格的な冬の訪れを告げます。 KOMOKAKE in Nagadohemachi As the name suggests, Nagadohemachi has a long stretch of earthen walls along the alley. In order to prevent damage to the earthen walls caused by Kanazawa's moist snow, in early December, the Naga-machi Buke Yashiki area is covered with "masonry" to protect the earthen walls from the cold and snow, heralding the arrival of winter.
