There is a white snake in the brand building on the corner where Ginza Chuo-dori and Marronnier Street intersect.

 

 

This is a luxury brand building with a motif of Serpenti (a snake in Italian) and is famous for its watches that look like snakes wrapped around their arms.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To commemorate the Christmas illuminations and the 5th anniversary of the opening of the Ginza Building, it will be lit every day from 9th of this month to the beginning of the new year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From now on, Ginza will become more gorgeous with illuminations toward the end of the year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kizukinasai (Tsukina Festival) 2012 was held grandly on November 10.　First, I visited the main hall and received a booklet entitled "Tsukiji Honganji main hall Restoration Project".　The explanation of the booklet is as follows.

　"Toward the 750th anniversary of the Shinran Saints in April 1993, we carried out large-scale restoration of the architectural design of the inner sanctum main hall, Buddhist memorial service, and the palaces and Sumidan, which are now 78 years old.　The main hall was built in 1934 and is a steel-framed reinforced concrete building.　The structure consists of the front large staircase, the outer team for worship, the inner and outer team of tatami mats in the back, the inner sanctum where the main deity Amida Buddha is enshrined, and the left and right spaces.　For the restoration, the finish was updated mainly with inner sanctum and the margins, and dust removal and cleaning were performed between the margins and left and right sheaths and outside teams, which had relatively little damage."　That's an explanation.　I joined main hall again after the renovation.　　Also, in the booklet, I would like to inform you that main hall and Stone Wall became registered Tangible Cultural Property on July 25, 2011.　It is a great pleasure that there is a registered cultural property in Chuo-ku.

　Well, after visiting, let's have a fun celebration.　　There were also cute children who participated in today's parade.　The comic artist from Osaka was also excited.

There were stores from all over the country, not only in the Tsukiji area.　Is it Mr. Matsuro's new product?　It seems that there is a shop outside Tsukiji on the 7th of every month.

　

I met an acquaintance and shop at a store in Fukushima Prefecture.　(For two people, permission to post photos has been obtained.)

There was a parade of "Yuruchara" with the child from Yasuaki Elementary School, but please give the report to other people.  If you want to know more, this is the URL of the guide in advance.　http://tsukijihongwanji.jp/kizukinasai2012/6507

 

 

On November 4, when the fine autumn weather was fine, the whole museum in Chuo-ku was held.

My home with children has participated in hands-on events.

Among them, I was very impressed by Harumi Triton Square's "Music Concert with Taiko Friends".

At the maracas, which was made in advance at the workshop, we played rhythms, introduced percussion instruments, and had mini concerts.

The sound of the atrium plaza, which was the venue, was unexpectedly good, and adults were also drunk with the sound of marimba. Everyone is nailed to the super technique and power of the small drum.

 

As a show, it was completely finished, and both adults and children could enjoy it.

I hope you will hold it again next year.

 

 

Meijiza is the theater with the longest history in Tokyo, celebrating its 140th anniversary in April next year. I'm the first in 19 years since the performance dropped after the rebuilding in 1993. At the lobby gallery on the 2nd floor, the history since Kishoza is being exhibited with photo panels as the "Meijiza 140 Years Exhibition". I took a picture with permission. The work that premiered in November 1885, when the Chitoseza opened, is "4,000 Ryo" currently being performed in theater.

 

After a quick review of the history of Meijiza, it was built on the south side of the Hisamatsu Police Station as of 1873 and opened as Kishoza.

Meiji 12 (1879) Hisamatsu-za, Meiji 18 (1885) Chitose-za, Meiji 26 (1893) Meijiza

Performers and performances of that era are introduced in photos, so you can enjoy it easily. If you come to the theater, please take a look. Danjuro Ichikawa appeared in September 1896 (Meiji 29) and was full for 25 days. At that time, it was said that the soba bills were placed in a large bag and distributed, and that today's large bag was the beginning of today.

By the way, the evening part of this month is the passage of "Tokubee Tenjiku New Story" (now Yobanashi). When the third generation Sarunosuke revived and performed "Tokubee Tenjiku Korea Story", which was a success in the north and south, he interwovened Kodaira Obata's ghost story based on "Korea Story". Tokubee Tenjiku was a real person from the Edo era who traveled to Tjiku (India) during the Kanei era under Ryoi Suminokura, and after returning to Japan, he gained a reputation after listening and writing his experience. The premiere was in Kawarasaki-za in 1804, and it was said that the early replacement of Hatsuse Matsusuke was so vivid that it became popular as Christian fairy and the magistrate came to the inspection immediately. (It's also a story that it's an advertisement for a hut.) Sarunosuke of the day, the head who jumped into the spring water is the upper messenger from the flower path, and the ghost of Kodaira plays many times of early change to the evil woman's Otowa happily and happily. The neighbor said, "I'll make you happy here." The last one is the highlight of the air ride. I'm sorry! I wish I had a seat on the second floor! I think it was at this time. You're late. In the lunch section, "Shinjo Reika" and "Spider thread Azusa string" (Yumihari Kumono and Azusa no) are also replaced early.

For inquiries, please contact the Meijiza Ticket Center 03-3666-6666, (10:00~17:00).

Until the twenty-seventh.

 

 

 

The whole Chuo-ku Museum 2012 was held on November 4 (Sun).

There are many fun events every year, so I'm worried about choosing an event to participate in.

Participated in the Ozu Washi Paper Making Experience on November 3 (holiday).

All use a front mount because there is a risk of getting wet during work.

I experienced it with the guidance of my teacher.

First, put the liquid of the strainer into the cagegirder, and then put the liquid of the strainer into the girder.

I will repeat the paper.

 

Hold the wooden frame firmly in the cage girder of the ship.

Rinse a small amount of liquid (liquid that becomes the base of paper) and throw it away immediately.

Next, draw a lot of liquid and shake it rhythmically about 30 times. Repeat it three times and finally draw a little liquid again and throw it away immediately.

Tororo Aoi is added to the strainer in addition to raw materials such as Mitamata and gangi.

This is to add troro Aoi to the raw material heavier than water to float the entire raw material.

Paper from the cage girder (liquid is in paper state)

To make it easier to peel off, the paper around the girder is used.

I'll remove it with my finger.

Remove the paper from the cage girder.

Next, suck the water of the paper with a machine.

(It's as if you were sucking it with a vacuum cleaner.)

Apply the paper that is still wet to the dry wall of a thick iron plate.

Put it on and dry it.

Use a soft brush to prevent air from entering between the dry wall and the paper.

Don't get wrinkled.　It is stroked with a brush.

I had a big wrinkle, and I had my teacher fix it.

We used the time until the paper dried to visit the Ozu Museum.

Is it strange that each flower oshi of ancient document is black?

Everyone in the historical drama that I see on TV is red.
At that time, ordinary people were told that black ink was black, and only those with high status were red flowers.

There was also an exhibition of a thousand cars.　It's only a box, but it's quite heavy, putting a thousand cars in a box like a rat kid

It is said that it is difficult to carry on the shoulder. (The weight of 1,000 ovals is the Edo Tokyo Museum

http://www.edo-tokyo-museum.or.jp/ Simulated Experience is available.)

 

It took about an hour and a half from paper making to finishing.

The paper making experience is until January next year, and it seems that it will be closed for a while thereafter.

Thank you very much for having an unusual experience.

 

 

 

 

I noticed that this month was already November. It's cool in the morning and evening (cold?) It must have become

 

 

By the way, the 8th was Ichino Rooster, and in the precincts of Namiwa Inari Shrine at Tsukiji 6-chome, kumade in lucky items was lined up, ready to welcome visitors wishing for good luck and thriving business.
