The Chuo-ku Tourism Association has been conducting since July, "Chuo-ku New Discovery! Do you know the "town walk tour"?
On August 28, I applied for an industrial course to visit long-established stores, shops and famous places.
We visited three long-established stores founded in the Edo period, a long-established Japanese confectionery shop "Eitaro Sohonho", a lacquerware specialty store "Kuroeya", and a laver shop "Yamamoto-noriten", which developed seasoned seaweed.
At the first visit, "Eitarou Sohonho" was held.
I heard about the invention of Amana sugar and Kintsuba.
In addition, we heard stories such as "Sado's red cobblestone at the villa of the Koza Goto family" at the entrance.
I bought Kintsuba as a souvenir.
On this website, you can see the story of Eitaro candy and gold brim. http://www.eitaro.com/
The show window at Kuroeya's storefront where I visited was decorated with giboshi in Nihonbashi, which was used during the Edo period.
Here, from high-quality lacquerware, our original chopsticks, Nihonbashi, is sold.
I purchased a business card holder with red Fuji, the thirty-six views of Mount Fuji in Katsushika Hokusai. http://www.kuroeya.com/
At the last visit, "Yamamoto-noriten", seaweed is collected when the plum blossoms bloom, so the circle was used as a ume company emblem, or the wall of the design of the laver spores.
Since the company's history and Yoko Yamamoto's TV commercials have been long-term, the Guinness Book of Records has been certified.
We heard a very interesting story about the ceiling expressing the frame of a boat that collects seaweed in the store's construction.
It was a seaweed tasting, and we tasted the canned seaweeds designed by our granddaughter Kitty-chan, but it is a seasoning that adults can also enjoy. I bought two cans.

The "Town Walking Tour" seems to be still being accepted. I recommend a fun walk around the town.
