Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

　Today is September 30th. It's the end of summer. From tomorrow, "Heavenly high, (horse) fertilizer fall." I'm really afraid of my appetite!　If you lose your appetite, you may not be worth living.　You have a good appetite because you are healthy.

　Today, for the first time in my life, I recorded a radio broadcast. This is also one of the fun roles as a correspondent of the Chuo-ku Tourism Association.

。

　After that, we stopped by Kyobashi Library and went to Soraya Monaka. Ignoring the poster "Sold out during today" and inside the store. I bought Japanese sweets this month. There were only three more boxes left.

　We had lunch at O Bakanal in front of Yasuaki Elementary School. The school building entangled with ivy was under seismic construction and was covered with curtains, but energetic children are practicing athletic meet.

　We went to Cafe Paulista for after lunch. The renovation has been completed, and the retro feeling has disappeared. But I think it would be good for Ginza to be new and beautiful in anticipation of a new era. Sao Paulo's Brazilian coffee is one of the cheapest things in Ginza!

　And is Chocolate Street name changed? Seoul Cookie, filled with Hollywood star flowers, has already withdrawn.

"Ginza rules" and "Ginza filters" are strict.

　I did an errand near JR Ochanomizu Station and finally came to my home. Let's enjoy afternoon tea slowly with delicious Japanese tea.

　I'll open the lid of this month's Japanese sweets. From the upper right, Soraya Soushi, chestnut drawstring, sesame fertilizer. From the top left, Ukishima, soba bun, mizuyokan. Which one should I choose?

 

 

This time, we will introduce a cafe restaurant "rensa" (rensa), which is friendly to both people and body, taught by moms living in the city.

Based on the concept of "eating is connected", it seems that it is a shop that values the connection (chain) from producers who grow ingredients to customers who eat deliciously.

 

Located 3 blocks southwest of Edo-dori St., it's a few minutes' walk from Kodemmacho Station on the Hibiya Line and Bakuro-Yokoyama Station on the Toei Shinjuku Line.

 

My recent problem is that "my own meal has become appropriate", but here you can eat and drink using organically grown and pesticide-free vegetables and rice, so sometimes I go and charge energy.

Perhaps because healthy ingredients are used, when you eat it, it feels like it enters the body quickly.

Today's daily set meal is mushroom hashed beef and brown rice.

Personally, I feel affection for miso soup.

 

Also, even if you go around 16 o'clock, you can get the set meal and curry at the same price as lunch, so I'm very grateful if you lose lunch or want to have dinner early.

 

...I would like to recommend it to everyone who wants to take care of their health.

However, of course, there is also a point for "with children" (#` ・ ω ・ ')!

 

This is a nursing room in the shop, and it is a very thankful shop for children who can enter a stroller.

However, at lunchtime, even salaried workers and OLs are busy, the cafe time is quiet and everyone feels relaxed, so I'm thrilled when I bring my children However, the clerks are very kind and I enjoy it without any fuss.

If you are in trouble, go to the nursing room! You can do it, and that is safe.

The left is a nursing room, and the center is a private room for changing diapers (the right is a normal toilet).

Each of them is like this. Because the room is divided, men can use it without hesitation.

 

 

A cute child chair. There is also a picture book.

  

 

Well, because it's a great deal, another recommended point

"Nihonbashi Blend Coffee" on the menu.

 

 

I'm a tea party, but the coffee here is refreshing and really delicious.

Souvenirs are also sold because they are beans (and freshly roasted) from "BROWN'S Cafe & Beans", which has an office in Nihonbashi.

viva Nihonbashi!

 

Food, shops, and clerks are all recommended for a healing cafe restaurant.

Take a sightseeing bus.

It was a longing event for children.

Just looking at the city from the high window is exciting.

The gaze of the people looking up was proud.

An event where various buses gathered was held on September 23 in Chuo-ku.

"Bus Festival 2014 in Harumi"

The venue is the lobby of the Harumi Passenger Terminal and a parking lot for large vehicles.

Buses as a convenient means of transportation have become more accessible.

Tokyo Bus (Tokyo Metropolitan Transportation Bureau), Odakyu, Keio, Keikyu, Tokyu, Kanto Bus

Vehicle display will have the highest tension.

If you wear a hat and sit in the driver's seat, the children will become drivers.

The stage equipment is a magic unique to a real car.

This event was held after the bus day on September 20.

Oh, there's a bus day.

In Japan, which has a 365-day anniversary, the bus day was October 1987.

It was decided at the bus operator meeting.

This is because Japan's first bus service started in Kyoto City on September 20, 1903.

It is surprisingly slow compared to rail transport, which started operation in 1872.

It would have taken a lot of years to get a bus operation to be established as a business.

The diorama of Tommytec's moving bus set up at the main venue was a must-see.

I knew the heart of the child (no, even adults) who stuck on the edge and stared at it.

There was also a hot Basma near, as the child who gripped the handle and sparkled his eyes.

The auction venue for parts.

I'm working while keeping in touch with my like-minded person on my smartphone.

Yuru-chara-style costumes, including the capital bus character "Minkuru", were popular with bus lovers.

Here around Harumi, the surroundings change every time I visit.

This large parking lot will also proceed with further changes in anticipation of 2020.

 

 

Tokyo Metro is currently recruiting participants for the walking event "Tokyo Machisanpo" to be held on October 25 (Saturday).
This event is held several times a year, but I often participate.
I would like to introduce it as one of the ways to enjoy walking around the town.

The walking route we are recruiting this time is as follows.

(start) Sumiyoshi Station on the Hanzomon Line　→　Kiba Park　→　Tomioka Hachimangu Shrine　→　Fudodou, Fukagawa　→　Ningyocho　→　Nihonbashi　→　Bank of Japan Currency Museum　→　Kanda Myojin　→　In front of Ueno no Mori Art Museum (goal)

The route starts from the downtown area of Koto-ku, crosses the Sumida River, enjoys the Edo atmosphere of Chuo-ku, passes through Kanda, and finishes in Ueno.
It can be said to be the best golden route to enjoy the atmosphere of downtown and Nihonbashi area.

I can't tell the details of the route until the day, but I can't tell you the details of the route.
The middle of the route will be in the Chuo-ku area.

In Ningyocho, it is good to walk around amazake Yokocho and stop by Koami Shrine, known as a power spot.
In Nihonbashi, it's a good idea to go to a long-established store, antenna shop, or a new choledo Muromachi.
Since it's Saturday, there are many shops that are open, so I think it's a good idea to have a meal.

 

Many people participate, including the elderly, young people, couples, and children.
It is especially recommended for those who have never visited this area yet, or those who want to go but have no chance to go there.
If you finish, you will receive a completion prize in exchange for a questionnaire.

Applications can be made from postcards and websites until October 6 (Mon).
In the case of a large number of applications limited to 5,000 people, a lottery will be held.
(By the way, I've never been off.)

I also went to two events that had already been talked about, the All Japan Tug of War Festival and the Oedo Festival Bon Dance Festival. This time, I would like to write a blog that summarizes two events based on the location of Hamacho Park.

The All Japan Tug of War Festival is held mainly in the gymnasium, but stores are lined up from the entrance of Hamacho Park. From the yellow gate as shown in the photo, park visitors to enjoy the festival without losing the main tug of war are enjoying the summer time.

Eating and drinking at restaurants is fun, but various events were also wonderful.

Regularly, participants of the opening of the store, Miss Chuo-ku, and other people danced in music (AKB48), and were excited. Kendama Champion decided on a flashy technique, which was also receiving great attention. The entertainer of Yoshimoto also creates a peaceful atmosphere. What should be noted is the sumo wrestler. A wrestler from the Arashio room in Hamacho is acting as a chanko pot. The taste is good. It will entertain us at the event.

In addition to these, the Chuo-ku Tourism Association gathers children with traditional toys, water guns, kendama, etc.

I took three yo-yo-yo at the booth in Chuo-ku. This is a new record. Moreover, it was still likely to be taken at the time of taking three, but he declined. I used to be poor in the past, but suddenly it got better.

It is held in the midsummer after the tray and has a slightly sober impression, but it is a recommended event that is kind to everyone who comes and everyone.

In fact, I spent many hours without knowing the excitement of the tug-of-war tournament in the outside fun. sumo wrestlers' hot pot, Yakisoba, Beer...

What was the tournament like? I forgot the original interview and ended that day.

The next event of the tug-of-war tournament is the Bon Dance Festival the following week.

What is overwhelming here is the amount of people and store openings. It's getting bigger compared to the previous week's events. Fortunately, we were blessed with the weather, and this was also exciting.

From children to grandfathers and grandmothers, I met wonderful smiles.

Hamacho Park is a wonderful place as a space. I feel that I will come to the Bon Dance Festival. The venue is a playground, but at the end of the view is the bank of the Sumida River, where the highway passes. Because of the highway, the river is not completely visible, so it is a little different space from the river. However, there is a large space of the river above.

This space, which seems to be open and feels like a special space. Isn't it ideal for Bon Odori, which goes away from everyday life for a while?

I couldn't think of such a meaningful thing, but when I was vague, the evening was night.

The two events will meet both to excite the second half of summer. The fireworks display was disappointing this year, but various events in Chuo-ku will not get bored.

After mid-August, the day becomes shorter, and the season gradually becomes autumn. I'm a little lonely.

Nevertheless, there are festivals and events that are tasteful in autumn in autumn, so I would like to go again.

 

 

The other day, as a "boat sightseeing," I had a small cruise on the Nihonbashi River starting from Nihonbashi, returning from the Sumida River to the Kanda River and the Nihonbashi River to Nihonbashi.

　

The scenery seen from the water and the boat was certainly new and fun, but I thought, "Let's see various spots around the river", so after a long absence I took an "early walk"

The start of this day is from Toyomi Bridge. The shop you care about at the foot of the bridge is Mile Post (Shinkawa 1-29-6). A number of beautiful bicycles through the window. Yes, I'm worried. I'd like to ask you slowly next time.

It is said that the next Mile Post Cafe is currently closed. I would like to ask you when this is also reopened.

There is a little green on the left side of Toyomi Bridge across the Hakozakicho River. There was a notice here that there was a thing called Takao Inarisha (10-7, Nihonbashi-Hakozakicho). Now there is a small torii, worship hall, about 100 meters northwest of here.

The history of this shrine is ruined.

A prostitute named "Dayu Takao" tried to pile up a lot of money and make it his own (although the name is also specified in the guide of the shrine.)...As a result of rejecting the invitation, he was killed in the Sumida River and moved to Kawanaka. A few days later, a monk who had a hermitage nearby buried the body launched on the riverbank, and people who knew the background built the shrine and worshiped it. The stop is amazing that the body (skull) is worshiped as a god of worship.

 

Next is Minato Bridge. Rather than a photo of Minato Bridge itself, Toyomi Bridge, which also took pictures of Mizkan's large building from Minato Bridge, might be better.

On the way to Kayaba Bridge, you will pass through the Kirin Nihonbashi Building (2-5 Nihonbashi Koamicho). It seems that there is a "Draft Masters School" here.

I'd like to go to Kirin Beer, but it seems to be for restaurants....(laughs).

So Chiba Bridge. Beyond the bridge, you can see a large building of Kao (1-14-10 Nihonbashi Kayabacho) on the Kayabacho side.

In the opposite direction, there is also a big building of Pentel (7-2 Nihonbashi Koamicho). (I forgot to take a picture)

Well, it might be better for Pentel to say that it is under the next armor bridge than Kayaba Bridge.

When you cross the armor bridge, you will see a magnificent building of the Tokyo Stock Exchange in front of you.

From the viewpoint of the exchange, Kabuto Shrine (Nihonbashi Kabutocho 1-12) is located on the river side.

The building itself seems to be new in 1971, but the "Kabutoiwa" in the precincts dates back to the role of the previous nine years (1050), and the name of the town is also This rock It looks like a very deep shrine that was named after it.

　　

　　　　

When I came to the next Edobashi and the monument of "the birthplace of mail" in front of it, and the Nihonbashi Post Office with the statue of "Maejima Mitsu", this time is out of time.

Next time, let's start around Edobashi and Nihonbashi.
