It bloomed again this year -2

In April, cherry blossoms began to bloom around Chuo-ku. Introduction of cherry blossom viewing spots

 

 

Nihonbashi Sakura-dori St.

It was not yet around the end of March, but today (April 4) is in full bloom. Needless to say, Nihonbashi Takashimaya's soba is about 1 km or a wide street, but there are many traffic, so please do not just look at the cherry blossoms when crossing the road and look at the car.

Sumida River.

Chuo-ohashi Bridge-Eitai Bridge, which has been posted several times, is still buds and will be in good shape this weekend depending on the weather. 

The cherry blossoms are beautiful along the Sumida River, but this is especially recommended. Many people enjoy cherry blossom viewing, so be careful of traffic. Please push the bicycle as it is posted.

Minami Takahashi.

Near Chuo-ohashi Bridge, one of my favorite bridges over the Kamejima River, Minami Takahashi Branch, is dignified. This bridge is a reuse of the central part of the former Ryogoku Bridge triple truss bridge that was damaged during the Great Kanto Earthquake, and is the oldest road bridge in Tokyo. Please enjoy it with the cherry blossoms.

Finally, cherry blossoms can be seen next year, but here "Ginza Sony Building" closed on March 31. It opened in 1966 and has been popular as one of the landmarks of Ginza for 50 years. I'm a fan of Sony (Sony products) and used audio amplifiers, FM tuners, tape decks, etc.

More than 30 years ago, I remember that I took an 8mm video on my honeymoon (overseas) and asked the locals what it was, and it was interesting.

Speaking of my generation, Sony is immediately associated with "Ibuka-san" and "Morita-san". I feel sad that Sony's history is a new change in my personal history.
