August 2014, green in Ginza to look for shades on hot days

[Edo Tabi Taro] August 7, 2014 09:00

■It's a season when hot days continue and I miss the shade.

On a day when the sidewalk was terrible, I walked in search of the shade of Ginza.

■At this time, I moved mainly on Chuo-dori (Ginza-dori) from Ginza 8-chome intersection to the direction of Ginza-doriguchi intersection.

The name of the street tree is based on the "Ginza Map" of Ginza's town paper "Ginza Times".

□The four trees at the four corners of the Ginza 7-chome intersection are Japanese camellia. It had a cute fruit.

■It's a little west of Chuo-dori, but I also walked Namiki-dori St. and Sotobori-dori St. (Nishi Ginza Street).

□Namiki-dori St. Japanese linden tree is full of trees. In summer, when walking around Ginza, Namiki-dori St. is recommended.

■There are surprisingly few shades of trees in Ginza.

It was hot!
