◆ Recruitment of Tokyo Metro "Tokyo Machisanpo" participants

[Sumida Fireworks] September 29, 2014 08:20

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.)
