  On October 17, "Masaru Shinkawa Jingu Reisai Festival" was held by Miyaji Tomioka Hachimangu Shrine at Masaru Shinkawa Jingu Shrine at Shinkawa 1-chome.

During the Edo period, when sake was transported by boat from the upper part, Shinkawa, where water transportation was convenient, became an accumulation area, prospering as a sake wholesaler district, and continues to this day.

Masaru Shinkawa Jingu Shrine has been revered as a guardian deity of sake wholesalers in Shinkawa since the Edo period, and it is said that when young sake arrived every year, it was dedicated to the shrine as "Hatsuho" and then served for business.

Reisai Festival continues to pray for the development of the liquor industry, such as local liquor wholesalers.

After the festival, a direct meeting (Naorai) moved to the adjacent Sake Foods Health Insurance Association Hall, which has been handed down since the Edo period, is held to celebrate the establishment of business negotiations and pray for the prosperity of both sellers and buyers. "A unique hand tightening "Shinkawa tightening" will be unfolded.

Participants drink one after another a large cup filled with Naminami and alcohol in accordance with the shouts and clapping of "Prosperity-", and hear that there is a penalty called "Punishment Cup" if the drink is bad.

 

       

 

✎Shinkawa tightening procedure

　1． "Yes!"

　　(In the first voice, the signal is that the sake has been poured into the cup. It is also the meaning of confirming the establishment of a business.)

　2． "Borrow your hand" (a signal to ask everyone to clap)

　3． "Wow!" (A signal to finally start tightening)

　　　⑦　Yoi Yoi Yoi (Colla) Yoi Yoi Yoi Yoi Yoi (Colla) Yoi Yoi Yoi Yoi Yoi

　　　⑤　Chongohan

　The underlined part of katakana is vocalization + clapping. The underlined part of Hiragana is only clapping. (Katakana) The part is only vocal.

　It is also called "7.5.3 closing" because it is handmade with the rhythm of 7.5.3.

 

 

 

 

In the clear autumn weather, I went to Bettara City after walking.

 

It was my first Betara city, but I was surprised that there were many people.

 

 

Until last week, the typhoon came for two consecutive weeks, so it would have been sucked up.

 

On the way, there was some nuts under the Kayaba Bridge. Because there was no tree name

 

I don't know the details, but isn't it a pomegranate or pomegranate?

 

It was a very pleasant day.

 

 

 

　On both sides of the sidewalk of Ningyocho-dori St., Nihonbashiningyocho

"Ningyocho doll market" was held from October 16 to 17.

　

Blessed with the fine autumn weather, before 10:00, customers were watching the dolls out of the box in front of their favorite shop. There are 57 stores.

　The owner of a handmade shop,

The hand-salted doll seems to have the feeling of giving her child to the bride.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

　At a long-established doll shop, Japanese-style dolls are available to customers.

　It makes you feel the tradition of Ningyocho.

　

There are stuffed animals, sculpture dolls,

Frogs, Japanese racoon dog, cats, and each doll makes the viewer feel relaxed.

The weather is good for both days. Some people who call kimono are also Chirahora.

As expected, it is the form of Nihonbashiningyocho.

The doll stalls were filled with colorful costumes of many women on this day only.

 

 

　　

　I'm heading to Harumi Pier.

 

On the right side, the opposite bank of the Asashio Canal is the Toyomi area.

This is Tsukishima Pier (Toyoumi Pier).

　

　After a while, we went to Harumi Park. A stone wall is assembled and the atmosphere of the castle ruins.

As you proceed to the middle, you will see the Harumi Passenger Ship Terminal beyond the fountain.

　We proceeded to the sea side, and sometimes a large ship berthed on the quay.

Looking to the left while looking at the boat, you can see Venus sculptures.

　On the way to the observation tower, there is a wonderful monument. Birds take water on the surface of the water.

Looking up, I go up to the observation tower. When it is clear, Mount Fuji is beautiful.

Skytree and of course Triton Square are up close.

Take the elevator to the ground. It's pleasant to have a loose cooling effect.

　

Go out and go to Triton, this area is a candidate site for the Olympic athlete village.

From time to time, the White Bye Corps of the Metropolitan Police Department is practicing seriously.

Sometimes airships flew from here.

 

When you pass through the construction site of Loop Route 2 and head to the hotel group, you have a good scent.

 

 This is the dried bonito center.　

Bonitobushi from famous stores such as Nihonbashi are transported here, dried in the sun at this place and shipped.

When I asked the clerk, there was "Tunabushi" in front of me. He looked a little thick.

Tunabushi is said to be used at a long-established soba restaurant in Nihonbashi.

　Going up the Harumi Ohashi Bridge, looking at the fresh sea, this time to the warehouse group, something retro.

　Leave the warehouse group and go to "Hot Plaza Harumi".

There is a stylish Italian restaurant on the second floor. Take a break here.

After looking at Rainbow Bridge on the terrace on the second floor, head to Asashio Kobashi.

 

 

Autumn is short, isn't it?

It's getting cold recently

When you feel the cold, you will finally feel like the end of the year, but Chuo-ku is still plenty of events! !

　

I would like to introduce it in my blog in the future, so thank you

　

Easy this time...

　

On October 16, 17 and 18, the 9th Ningyocho Ningyocho Ningyocho Ningyocho will be held at Ningyocho-dori St.

 　

I thought it was a traditional event, and in 2006, the first was held in hope of the development of Ningyocho, a place with history and culture, and the doll culture.

 　

56 tents are set up on both sidewalks of Ningyocho-dori St., and sales of dolls and related products Ningyocho Great Kannon-ji Temple also memorializes dolls.

 　

Recently, I have been suffering from a large typhoon, but the weather during the event seems to be good, so please come by all means! !

　

　

And on November 2nd (Sun), "Chuo-ku Marugoto Museum 2014" will finally be held.

　

I will introduce you to you soon, thank you!

　

 

 

On October 7, it was a tour of Ginza Gallery, a town walking tour.

There are 10 participants.

We gather in front of the clock tower of Sukiyabashi Park and visit three galleries: Yanagi Gallery, Nichido Gallery, Shiminedo Gallery.

 

First, Mr. Yanagi Gallery.

 

There are a few words from the President who was very impressed.

You can't buy paintings from museums, but you can buy paintings from galleries.
What if you don't buy or buy a picture in it?
What if you could get one?
It's fun to look at the picture while thinking like that

 

　

 

Among Yanagi Gallery, I really like Hiroshi Okano's paintings,
The color is beautiful, and there are some things you can buy,
“Adorn this picture of this size in the living room.”
I think it was very fun to think of it, and I really wanted a picture (laughs).

I received a pamphlet (upper right)

 

I was doing a Dali exhibition at the Nichido Gallery.
It is the 110th anniversary of Dali's birth.
Because it is not a picture, it is difficult to carry art.
I heard the story behind Dali.

We also sell postcards and notepads of famous painters.
I received a big postcard from Dali and Monet, where the next event is written.

There is a permanent exhibition in the basement, and there is a lot of pictures hanging.
The painter who thought this person's picture was good, check the name!

 

　

 

　

 

Finally, Mr. Shihodo.
There was plenty of time, so I explained each picture one by one.

Knowing the background and story of the picture
It's interesting because love is born in the picture and the perspective changes.

 

By the way, Shihodo's picture does not have a price tag.
When asked why, when looking at the picture, many people look at the name and price before looking at the picture.
He seems to have not put a price tag because he wants to see the picture without preconception of the amount.

 

When you hear the amount, you say, “I’m going to do that much.”
If you think about it, the picture is a favorite picture.
If you think, "Is it so expensive?" it's not your favorite picture (laughs).

 

The gallery in Ginza seems to have a high threshold, but
Today, I felt like I could go to the gallery more easily.

I'm going to get a habit of visiting galleries in Ginza.
