Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

"Hotel Kazusaya", which also participates in the Chuo-ku Tourism Association, was founded in 1891.
It is a pioneer in the hotel industry.
The restaurant "Nirane" in this hotel offers original curry from Chuo-ku.
You can eat "Edo Seasonal Curry".

Well, this information is not "Hotel Kazusaya", but is casual next to it.
It's a retro signboard architecture.
For those who don't know "signboard architecture", I would like to supplement it mainly around Tokyo and Kanto.
It was built around 2003 after the Great Kanto Earthquake, and was especially used in shops.
It's an architectural style.
Specifically, there is a two-story wooden building with an attic, where the store and the house were combined.
It is a multi-storey store, and the front wall rises vertically, and the copper surface and copper surface.
It's mortar and tiled. The building faces the street
Because there are so many, the eaves are not on the front. A flat wall on the front
From the place where we tried free design using it, we named signboard architecture.
It's a coincidence.
Don't you think it's an architectural style that has some nostalgia and makes you feel the Japanese atmosphere?


 

 

 Like last year, the canola flower field is dyed in beautiful yellow and shines in the sun.

And a good scent seems to be inviting birds.

It blooms one after another from the end of March to the beginning of April.

The cactus-like plant on the right side of the canola flower field is Ryuzetsuran.

It is produced in Mexico and blooms once every 60 to 70 years.

Flowers bloomed about 3 years ago in Hamarikyu.

In foreign countries, it is called Century Flower.　

When it blooms, a number of large yellow flowers bloom at a time.

I make a liquor named Tekira from the roots.　　　　　

　　　　

　　　　　　It blooms two colors of white and red from a single tree.

　　　　　 　　　　　There are many trees in full bloom in Umezono, but there are still trees with hard buds.

　　　　　I'm looking forward to seeing you there.　　

　　　　　  　　　　　　

If you look closely, it is a familiar hoshihajiro that is often found in a pond with tide.

When I was in the pond, it looked small, but when it was low tide and stood at the shore, it looked unexpectedly large.

The Hatchobori area during the Edo period was also a town where townspeople lived along with the samurai area (the land of worship) where the powerful concentric mansion was located. There was a shrine of common people's religion. Currently, there are three shrines: Tenso Shrine, Hibiya Inari Shrine, and Imamura Saiwai Inari Shrine.

 

First, "Tenso Shrine" (3-6-6 Hatchobori, above photo) is located in the southeast of Takarabashi. During the Edo period, it was called "Isobe Daijingu Shrine" and is a venerable shrine depicted in the "Edo Famous Zoukai". At present, only shrines and monuments stand, and are managed by the Neighborhood Association.

＝Related articles are published in the Yomiuri Shimbun Tomin edition on January 20, 2011.

 

According to the origin of the inscription, "Izamiya, a separate shrine of Ise Kotaijingu Shrine (inner shrine Ise-jingu Shrine) in Izaso, Ishi-gun, Shima country, descended east in early May 1624 (1623) to Edo Nihonbashi-dori 3-chome, Toyoshima-gun, Musashi-kuni, 10 frontages and 12 depths. Later, in late June 1633 (1633), Hatchobori Matsuyamachi (around the current location) gave 300 tsubo and destroyed the old company and rebuilt it. "

 

The "Edo Famous Zoukai" states, "This place can be called Isobe Yokomachi, customs, Isobe Taijingu Shrine", which illustrations the New Year's scenery of the shrine. Izamiya of the former shrine isShima-gun, Mie IsoBecause it is enshrined in Hemachi, it is called "Izougu" or "Isobe-san". At the famous place event, the notation of "Iza" and "Isobe" is written as "Isobe".

 

The next Hibiya Inari Shrine (3-28-15 Hatchobori, in the photo) is located on the northwest side of Takahashi, along the Kamejima River, once called the Hibiya Riverbank. This shrine has only a shrine and a history.

 

According to history, "In 1606 (1606), the tidal flat at Hatchobori was buried to build Edo Castle Hibiya Gomon Gate and built a shrine hall. This corner was called Hibi Tanicho, because it was religious service as the landlord of the new land. Many of the people who came to Edo stayed at this shrine and visited it, so this was also called "Tabidomari Inari" and called "Sabainari". There was.

 

The third "Imamura Ko Inari Shrine" (3-24-11 Hatchobori, lower photo) is located on the second floor of the building on the northeast side of Hatchobori Station. Did you worship the Imamura family who worshiped this area in the early Edo period?　The origin is unknown because there is no history and nothing is posted. There is no mention on the map of late Tokugawa shogunate. It seems that Inari-sha was enshrined in each mansion in various places, so it was said that "Iseya, in Inari ..."

 

"Edosho map of Bushu Toyoshima-gun" (1632)?) In this area, "Imamura Den Juro". In the figure of Enpo era (1673-1681) of "Ofunai History Book", "Hikobee Imamura" is described as "Hikobee" with the land combining Sachimachi and Hibi Tanicho. In the figure of Genroku era, it is "Yuki" and "Yuki" in the middle of the year. There is a mansion of Imamura Den Saburo in the area where it was originally Terachi, and in 1690 (1690), this site was confiscated, and in the following four years, Sachimachi (currently around Shimbashi, Minato-ku) moved outside Kobashi. It was called Sachimachi.

Last time, I introduced cosmetics using comet orchids called Sylvan.
Based on the story of the comet orchid, Nichirei is a flower business.
There are nichirei flowers, production and sales of comet orchids, and
I heard that you are producing and selling other orchid seeds.
Mr. Kaneko, President of Sylvan, introduced me to you.
I interviewed Mr. Shimizu, director of Nichirei Flower.
Nichirei Flower's office is located a little before Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge in Shintomi-cho.

 

The first thing that stopped my eyes was displayed on the table of the office.
It was a flower in the glass.
It's a flower called "Ever Flower".
Dried flower that lasts longer than preserved flower.
It is said that it was developed using the vacuum technology and biochemical reactions used by Hitachi in space experiment rooms.
Nichirei and Hitachi were of the same affiliated companies~!

 

 

The warranty period is one year, but what is in the director's house?
It seems that it will remain beautiful without fadeing for 20 years.
I happened to have it for a wedding celebration, but it's also called "EVER".
It can be used not only for wedding celebration but also for various celebrations.

 

As expected, big ones are expensive, but some cute ones are about 5,000 yen.

And it is the story of the comet orchid.
The comet orchids are called Odontgrossam, and they were discovered in the 19th century.
It seems that it was a rare flower that was familiar to European nobles and British royal family.
It was introduced to Japan in 1902, and Shigenobu Okuma and Tadaoki Sakai were introduced at the National Exposition.
It was in 1984 that the Western orchid project team was established in Nichirei.
In 1985, he was also exhibited at the World Orchid Conference.

I was surprised that there were many kinds of comet orchids.
Sylvan was used in cosmetics, but
My favorite in appearance was a comet orchid called "Marie Noel" Bellano "".
This variety has won the Red Ribbon Award at the 2007 World Orchid Exhibition Japan Grand Prize.

 

It's very cute with pink flowers, but I just saw them in the catalogue.
I would like to see the real thing at the World Orchid Exhibition Japan Grand Prize starting tomorrow (* ^^*)

 

The official website of the World Orn Exhibition Japan Grand Prize

 

Of course, at the World Orchid Exhibition at Tokyo Dome, not only comet orchids, but also comet orchids.
It seems that a lot of dendrobium, cymbidium and other orchids will be exhibited.
That's also something that has not bloomed and has a lot of buds. It seems that you can choose only those that are easy to grow at home.
Certainly, the flowers in full bloom have a short time to enjoy.
If you can see the process of blooming flowers, the fun will be doubled.♪
It seems that you can buy it for around 2,000 yen per share (*^^ *)

 

The lighting at Tokyo Dome is originally a facility for baseball, so it is a facility for baseball.
Cocktail rays (lighting of night games) are used.
It seems that yellow and white flowers look more beautiful than red and pink.
It was a little trivia knowledge (laughs).

 

Also, the Phalaenopsis orchid which was placed at the office is a little small and cute.
But because it was a Phalaenopsis orchid, it looked elegant and expensive.
It seems that it costs 5500 yen including shipping cost in two standings. It's good as a gift!

 

 

And the beautiful rose Priza,
I had fresh vege lettuce and radish.

 

 

　

 

Since I was a child, I had a very little connection with the soil.
Do you really do lettuce? I'm looking forward to it because I'm skeptical about it (*^^*)

 

By the way, there is a greenhouse of Comet orchids of 3,000 tsubo in Nagano, and it is said that October to May is its peak.
On the homepage, you can see a picture of a house full of comet orchids.
It seems that the director lives near him and goes to Tokyo.
While you are busy preparing for the Orchid exhibition, you can talk a lot for an hour.
He was the director of a gentle personality who loves flowers.
