It is a new bridge at the mouth of the Sumida River, but I have also seen the bridge. It was a masterpiece to see a large crane ship appearing around 6:30 am on May 8 (Thursday) with a 120m long bridge center hanging around.

The Sumida River has a large number of ships operating, so it seems that a bridge girder was made in another place to shorten the operation suspension period and brought to this place and installed it.

No, the figure after the bridge is also quite good.

In parallel with this bridge work, the name of the bridge is also being recruited.

Application forms are distributed at Chuo-ku government offices, etc., and can also be downloaded from the following Chuo-ku URL.
The application qualification is those who are related to Chuo-ku (resident, working, attending school), but if you can apply, please give a good name. It is until May 20 (Tuesday).

This year, I wanted to eat wild vegetables as tempura.
I looked for a supermarket in the neighborhood, but it wasn't easy to put it, and when I looked back, I don't remember seeing it very much.
According to various research, Kachidoki is doing a "market" called "marche of the Sun" once a month, and on the 10th and 11th of this month, a wild vegetable trader will also participate.

Blessed with the weather, the venue was crowded with many people.

The wild vegetable shop I was looking for was very kind and taught me a lot about how to eat it.
It was quite reasonable.

There are many special stalls, and we decided to buy kebab and tof burger here for lunch and eat it in Harumi Triton.

I didn't have an eat space.

But......

When we arrive at Harumi Triton, there is also a stall here.
If you look closely, thinking about something, the "Harumi Haruki Call Festival" is being held, and this is also quite busy.

Mr. Pepo was also very excited about the festival.
It was very hot, so I thought it was hard.

I've seen Mr. Pepo's hard work last year.

　
I had the wild vegetable tempura at home, but it was truly exquisite, such as taranome, kogomi, and Ezo Japanese knotweed.
I was surprised that wild plants are so delicious.

 On May 10 and 11, "marche of the Sun" was held at Tsukishima Daini Children's Park.

At the Aozora Market, which started in September 2013, about 100 stores from all over Japan open each time with the theme of local vegetables and seasonal ingredients according to the season, and is crowded with nearly 20,000 visitors, making it one of the largest urban marche in Japan.

The theme this time is "Koshu Wine and Japanese Food".

"Koshu Wine" is gaining worldwide reputation, including the registration of "Koshu" as a grape variety in the international wine screening organization OIV in 2010, receiving numerous awards at international wine competitions, and starting exports to Europe.

On the other hand, Japanese food was registered in UNESCO Intangible Cultural Property last year.

Various combinations of "Koshu wine" and "Japanese food" and how to enjoy it are proposed.

The wineries that participated this time were 1 Sadya in Yamanashi Prefecture, 2 Yamanashi Ryohin, 3 East Chen Yoshu, 4 Central Wine, 5 Maruki Wine, 6 Katsunuma Wine, 7 Grape Shop kofu, 8 Tsuruya Brewery 9 Sanyo Brewery 10 Yamanashi Fermentation.

Yamanashi Prefecture's wine culture includes "Isho bottle wine", "Wine drink in teacup", and "Wine drink with Japanese food".

According to the history, in Yamanashi, wine was encouraged and produced as part of a policy of breeding and industry in the early Meiji era. Yamanashi's wine culture is said to have started with Issho bottles, and gradually penetrates from ceremonial occasions to daily dinners. At one time, it was shipped outside the prefecture, but with 720/750ml becoming mainstream, most of it now is said to be for local people.

In addition, it is common to drink wine with a glass, but it is said that many people drink wine in the familiar "teacup" because of the flow of sake.

(A cup of tea bowl is also attached to the side of the display of the one sho bottle in the booth.)

The roots of "appetizers" in the local area are said to be "boiled" or "pickles", but the characteristic of the taste of "Koshu wine" is "delicacy", "decreased" and "cooperation". In other words, it seems that it is easy to match with any dish.

"Issho bottle wine to drink in teacup with Japanese food" "Koshu wine style" is also fun to interact with different cultures.

Since it has been introduced in the correspondent blog so far, it has been introduced in the correspondent blog.

I think there are many people who already know it.

Currently, "Koho Inu" at Suitengu Shrine are staying at the Royal Park Hotel.

However, it doesn't seem to be easy to relax at the hotel.

It seemed to be busy with greetings and photography with all the visitors.

By the way, the construction of this shrine hall is scheduled to be completed in two years.

At present, a temporary shrine is enshrined in Nihonbashihamacho.

※The Suitengu in Nihonbashi was served by Arima of Kurume feudal lord during the Edo period.

　 It began with the recommendation of a spirit to Edo Yashiki (currently Mita, Minato-ku).

　 Later, in 1872, he was transferred to the current company site (Nihonbashikakigaracho).

To get from the Royal Park Hotel to Kamiya, you can get to the hotel.

It is convenient to use the free shuttle bus "Kohomaru".

When it's warm and cheerful, take a short stop.

Take a leisurely stroll around amazake Yokocho and the Ningyocho neighborhood.

It may be fun to line up in a line of popular shops!

Chuo-ku's first TV program created by residents of the city, which provides local information on Chuo-ku, began in April. The program name is "Everyone's Information Bureau from Chuo-ku", which aims to take up themes from the perspective of inhabitants of a ward and introduce them with images. The production is handled by the Chuo-ku Residents Media Reporter Association, which is made up of graduates of the inhabitant of a ward college course.

The TV station is "Tokyo Bay Net" on cable TV (111 channels = 11 remote control). The broadcast date and time is 15 minutes from 8:30 pm every day. It has been updated every month since April, and in the May issue, the work of four people produced during the training and introduction of members (Part 2) are broadcast. @ Akira Makibuchi

We enjoyed walking on the weekend while the refreshing breeze of May was blowing.

Walking around Yagenbori Fudoin, I was worried about a rare intersection.

In Chuo-ku, there are many roads with clear vertical and horizontal directions like a go board.

It is an intersection that is a six-way street. I wondered why it was such an intersection, so I took a picture.
