Introduction of walking course

St. Luke Garden, Henry Falls Stone Monument, Tsukiji Catholic Church, Sumida River Terrace, Kachidokibashi, Namiki Shrine, Tsukiji Outer Market

The feature of this course is the first half and the second half, and the state of the town changes dramatically.
The first half is a calm and quiet environment from the vicinity of Akashicho to the Sumida River Terrace. In the second half, when I came to Kachidokibashi and Harumi-dori St., I turned around.

The traffic of cars and people increases, and you can feel the busyness of Tsukiji Market.

 
St Luke's Garden
I remember that there used to be a dormitory for nurses or nursing college students.
For a while after completion, there was a free observation room on the high floor, so I could see the distance.
It is currently closed. The night view was particularly beautiful and free, but I'm sorry.

 

Henry Falls Stone Monument
Henry Falls conducted fingerprint research here and published it in scientific journals.
Since then, this study has been useful in criminal investigations and crime prevention.
In addition, we conducted medical activities, but Akashicho was a foreign settlement.
I opened a clinic in Minami-Odawara-cho (I think it is around 6.7-chome Tsukiji now).
This "Odawara-cho" has the "Odawara-cho police box" on Tsukiji 6-chome Harumi-dori St., and the name of the town at that time was changed.
You can know it.

 

Tsukiji Catholic Church
In the past, there was a kindergarten in this church, and it was called Josef Kindergarten.
Actually, I am a graduate of Josef Kindergarten, and this cathedral is called the Mido.
I still remember that the stained glass on the front is beautiful. (I don't remember what it is.)
The name of Mido (sacral) of the Tsukiji Catholic Church is said to be "St. Joseph".

 

 

St. Luke's International Hospital
The current St. Luke International Hospital was completed in 1992, but the symbolic center of the former hospital has been preserved as it is.
There is a chapel inside, where flies and rats are drawn on the tiles on the floor.

I was wondering, but it seems that you can step on these unsanitary things that transmit infectious diseases with your feet.

  

Sumida River Terrace
The Sumida River embankment was previously called the razor dike and was separated from the river. But at that time
(Before 1970), the odorous water was black and dirty, so I didn't feel like approaching.
Now it is recommended for a walk as introduced here. I think it's a drama.
Photography is also taking place.
I think it was until around 1970, but the Sumida River water bus company was behind Jisaku, and the ship was moored.
The names of the ships were "Urashima Maru, Ryugu Maru, and Otohime Maru" in connection with Urashima Taro.

 

Kachidokibashi-outside market
When you go to Kachidokibashi / Harumi-dori St. from the Sumida River Terrace, it is full of liveliness as if you came to another town.
As you know, the out-of-office market from Namiki Shrine is not only for Japanese but also for customers from overseas.
I enjoy shopping and eating.

 

 

 

On October 30 (Fri), Yamada Denki's Concept LABI TOKYO (Concept Rabi Tokyo) (1-5-22 Yaesu) will open at Yaesu Exit of Tokyo Station.

 

Yamada Denki has developed LABI, a suburban store centered on Techland, and has opened stores one after another on the Yamanote Line in Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, Shibuya, and Shimbashi, but it finally appears at the Yaesu Exit of Tokyo Station in Japan.

 

Concept Ravi Tokyo is a new concept shop that proposes the latest products and services of leading manufacturers along with their lifestyle.

 

The concept of each floor from the first basement floor to the tenth floor (store area approximately 2,000 tsubo) is expressed in "Stage", and in addition to cutting-edge products, various service solutions, TAX FREE, companies, corporations, and government offices will be set up to constantly disseminate the latest information through events at each stage.

 

In the surrounding area, other buildings are being rebuilt, and Yaesu is changing rapidly, isn't it?

The photo was taken on October 22.

　The 4th "Yagenbori Kodan no Kai" was held on October 23 at Yagenbori Fudoin in Higashinihombashi and Yagenbori, the birthplace of the talk.

　Sponsored by Higashinihombashi Yagenbori Shopping Association, sponsored by Yagenbori Fudoin, Higashi Nihonbashi 2-chome Town Association, and Yagenbori Toshinoichi Preservation Society.

 

Performed by Mr. Sadaka Ichiryusai and Mr. Tsuru Momonokawa.

First of all, Mr. Tsuru Momonokawa talked about the relationship between talks and "Hato Bus", and a human story related to the Tamagawa brothers who drew Tamagawajosui in Edo.

Everyone was dreaming of listening to the voice that passed well, about two distances from the audience seats and about five at the bottom. I was a little relieved, too.

Masauchi is the master of Iryusai Sadaka. Beginning with the story of town revitalization, it's easy to do.

He developed a story about love between the daughter of a teahouse near Ryogoku Hirokoji Temple at the base of Ryogoku Bridge and a young husband-like man living around Nihonbashi Honmachi, and that was an interesting story called a play in the play.

The customer was not coughing, but was drawn into a hot story and listened.　This is what I mean.

I've become a fan of the conversation.

　On October 23 and 24, there were many shops in the "Yagenbori Mobile Shopping Street" and it was lively. .

This time it was night, so please see here for the lively scenery.

On the day when the tree wilt No. 1 blows, I took a look at Happy Halloween on Tsukishima Monja Street.

 

Children dressed in various fashions carry large bags, go around each shop to get sweets and starters.

 

I was receiving a stamp from the poppy. Some adults and others were disguised.

 

Spiderman, princess, turtles, etc.

 

On the way back, a group of high-rise apartments looked up from the Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge column towered in the sky without clouds.

 

The signboard of a long-established Tsukudaniya on Tsukuda Island was also reflected, and I felt the contrast between modern and history.

 

It's my favorite scenery.

 

　　　

 

　　

 

 

　

 

 

Pioneer Plaza Ginza is in the De Beers Ginza Building, which is just a short walk from Chuo-dori to Marronnier Street at the Ginza 2-chome intersection.

 

The De Beers Ginza Building is currently being rebuilt at the adjacent Okura Main Building, so you can see it from Chuo-dori. It is a building where the entire building is undulating (arrow below).

 

A limited-time Halloween event is being held here.

During the period, mini cocoons are dressed in Halloween costumes at every corner of the hall.

 

In addition, "numbers" are hidden in "Halloween Kokun", which lurks somewhere in the hall, and if you find all the numbers, you can get sweets.

 

Halloween costumes are also available, and it seems that you can enjoy commemorative photos at the special corner for a limited time.

 

The event will be held from Saturday, October 17 to November 3 (Tuesday / holiday).

Opening hours are from 11:00 to 19:00, and every Monday is closed.

 

You can also experience the latest version of Carrozzeria "Raku Navi" here.

The latest version of this "Raku Navi" is really "Raku".

　The 43rd Oedo Kashiki Parade Nihonbashi / Kyobashi Festival was held grandly on October 25, 2015, and the enthusiasm and spirit of the performers and the backers who support the parade were transmitted. It was a festival.

Oedo Kashiki Square Garden was set up in front of Tokyo Square Garden, and from there, the parade proceeded to Nihonbashi vigorously and elegantly through Meijiya and Kyobashi Trust Tower.

 

The parade will be an enlightenment march of the “Transfer Fraud Eradication Campaign” by the brass band of the Tokyo Fire Department, members of the Nihonbashi Fire Department, the Life Safety Division of the Central Police Station, and residents of the city.

 

March while singing the woodwork of the Metropolitan Police Department drum corps, Chuo Kotsu Boys, Hisamatsu Kotsu Boys, and Edo Fire Department

The exquisite performance of the members of the Japan Nanjing Tama blinds association!　The lively dance of young people of Tokyo Metro!

 

"Miss Kaga Yuzen dyeing" waved her hand.　Last time, I received a picture at the antenna shop stamp rally.

By the way, as I knew today, the mascot character of the Ishikawa Hyakumangoku Monogatari is said to be "Hyakumansan". The mascot's beard is Wajima-painted.

 

In front of Takashimaya, portable shrine of the powerful Noto soul. I got well. enka ballad's song "Noto Hairankaine" came up.

 

In Nihonbashi, a photo session of "TOKYO KIMONO WEEK 2015" kimono collection photo session. The sightseeing ambassador of Chuo-ku, Miss Chuo, also participated beautifully and elegantly.

 

It was a splendid, graceful 3 hours. I received the vitality from tomorrow.　Thank you very much, everyone.
