    "description_ja": "ミナミの繁華街にありながら、静かななにわ情緒を漂わせている法善寺横丁。東西両端にある門にそれぞれ掲げられた「法善寺横丁」の文字は、西は藤山寛美、東は3代目桂春団治によるもの。長さ80m、幅3mの2本の路地が東西に伸びる横丁内には、老舗の割烹やバー、お好み焼き、串カツ店などがずらり、風情ある石畳に行き交う足音がコツコツと鳴り響く。もともとこの地は浄土宗天龍山法善寺の境内で、参拝客相手の露店がいつしか横丁に発展したもの。太平洋戦争の空襲で寺も横丁も焼失したが、戦後、盛り場として復活。織田作之助の小説「夫婦善哉」の舞台として知られ、歌謡曲「月の法善寺横町」にも歌われた。戦火をくぐり抜けた不動尊は、願いを込める人たちがかけた水で、全身に緑の苔がびっしり。旧中座の2回にわたる火災を乗り越え、復活を遂げた法善寺横丁は、かつての風情を残しつつ、浪速の人情も守りつつ、今も活気溢れる街だ。",
    "description_en": "Hozenji Yokocho keeps a quiet Naniwa mood inside the Minami entertainment district. The words 'Hozenji Yokocho' on the gates at either end were written by Fujiyama Kanbi in the west and by Katsura Harudanji III in the east. Two lanes run east to west, 80 metres long and 3 metres wide, lined with old kappo restaurants, bars, okonomiyaki and kushikatsu shops, and footsteps sound on the flagstones. The ground was once the precinct of Hozenji, a Jodo sect temple, and the stalls serving worshippers grew into the alley over time. Temple and alley both burned in the air raids of the Pacific War, and after it the alley came back as a place to go out. It is known as the setting of Oda Sakunosuke's novel Meoto Zenzai and is sung about in the song Tsuki no Hozenji Yokocho. The Fudoson statue that came through the fires is covered all over in thick green moss from the water people pour on it with their wishes. Hozenji Yokocho survived two fires at the old Nakaza theatre and revived again, and it remains a lively street that holds on to its old feel and its Naniwa warmth.",

    "description_zh": "法善寺横丁位于南区繁华地段，却保留着安静的浪花情调。东西两端门上的“法善寺横丁”题字，西侧出自藤山宽美，东侧出自三代目桂春团治。横丁内两条长80米、宽3米的小巷东西延伸，老字号割烹、酒吧、大阪烧、炸串店鳞次栉比，石板路上回荡着往来的脚步声。此地原本是净土宗天龙山法善寺的院内，面向香客的露天摊位渐渐发展成了这条横丁。太平洋战争的空袭中寺院和横丁均被烧毁，战后作为闹市复兴。它因织田作之助的小说《夫妇善哉》的舞台而知名，也被歌谣《月之法善寺横町》唱及。躲过战火的不动尊，因人们许愿时浇淋的水，全身长满了浓密的青苔。法善寺横丁历经旧中座两度火灾后重新复兴，至今仍保留昔日情调与浪花人情，热闹依旧。",
