　Today is a long-established tour and historical walk that has been around since the Edo period.

First of all, a specialty store of fans and fans, "Iba Sen" from 1590 (AD 1590).

We saw wonderful fans in the store and worked out a gift plan.　Here, the right side of the store was the "Iba Sen Machikado Exhibition Hall", and along with Ukiyo-e, a wonderful fan with Ukiyo-e prints, a must-have item for the coming season, was also displayed.

　When you leave the shop, you will head to Sugimori Shrine. On the way, there is a wonderful tile pattern on the pavement of Horidome 1-chome. At Sugimori Shrine, sound health prayed for the lottery.

　Next, from the corner going a little north to the "Tokyo Sky Tree" on the right, you can see the "Tokyo Sky Tree" on your right, and in Otemmacho from there, there is a "Spring 7 Views Daitenmacho Cotton Shop" and "Autumn 74 Views Large Temmacho Gofuku Shop" at Oe, and you can see "Hiroshi Hyakudo" at hand.　

　And a little further away, there was `` Juzaburo Tsutaya's Koshodo '', a representative work of Sharaku Toshusai, a genius painter who came out by the same publisher, `` The third generation Oniji Otani's Niji Edobei '', `` Ebizo Ichikawa's Takemura Sadayuki Susumu "in my mind.

　The next shop I visited was "Edoya" from 1718 (AD 1718), a brush specialty store that has continued since the Edo period. Here, I bought a toothbrush using horse hair. I've been using it for the past five years.

On the opposite side of the shop, a monument of "Old Nikko Kaido Hondori" is erected.

　Next, go a little north and look at the monument of "Magome Kansoyu Yashiki Ruins" at the corner of the road.

　Visit to Takarada Ebisu Shrine. I saw the history of the shrine and learned the origin of the name "Bettazuke".

　Visit the store and museum of "Ozu Washi", founded in 1653 (1653), to close the long-established tour. I saw a map around the old and new stores.

　I studied a number of Japanese paper designated as World Cultural Heritage and saw a number of wonderful Japanese paper products.　On the second floor here, we have a free tea ceremony machine for customer service, which is really thankful.

The other day, I heard a lecture by Hiroshi Ozawa, a former director of the Urban History Research Office of the Edo Tokyo Museum and a visiting professor at Shukutoku University's Faculty of Humanities, entitled "Kidai Shoran 200 Years Ago". I thought it would be better to write before the impression of the content of the audit diminished, so I chose it because there were other blogs and stories. Here are some interesting information that you can't get on Wikipedia.

In 2000 AD, Japanese picture scrolls were exhibited at the Berlin Orient Museum of Art (now the Berlin National Asian Art Museum) in Germany. It was a picture scroll called "Kyodai Shoran" depicting Nihonbashi Street 200 years ago. It is unknown when this picture scroll went to Germany, but it was one of the collections deposited by Professor and his wife Custell of the Free University of Berlin.

After that, the Kidai Shoran returned to Japan in January 2003, and was exhibited for the first time at the Oedo Yaohachicho Exhibition, a special exhibition commemorating the 400th anniversary of the opening of the Edo Tokyo Museum in Tokyo. In January 2006, he returned to the Mitsui Memorial Museum's Hall Memorial special exhibition II "Nihonbashi Emaki Exhibition", and in November 2009, a reproduction picture scroll of Hirodai Shoran began to be displayed on the west side of the concourse (Mitsukoshi side) underground at Mitsukoshimae Station on the Tokyo Metro. Honen I was able to actually see the Kidai Shoran at the special exhibition "Edo and Beijing -18th Century City and Living" of the Edo Tokyo Museum held from February 18 to April 9.

The picture scroll of Kidai Shoran depicts the west side of approximately 7 towns (760m) on Nihonbashi-dori (Chuo-dori) from Nihonbashi to Kanda Imagawa Bridge in a bird's-eye view. It depicts 88 stores and people, dogs, horses, cows, monkeys, hawks, and vividly depicts the daily lives of Edo samurai, townspeople, Buddhist monk, and beggars. It describes the cityscape before it was burned down in the second year of culture (1805), the year before the Great Fire of Heitora. The title is "Kidai Shoranten", so it seems that there were other volumes of "ground" and "people". It's one of the three volumes.

What was written in the volume of "ground" and "people"? For example, one of the scrolls may have depicted the east side of Nihonbashi Street (opposite Mitsukoshi). If it existed, I would have found detailed information about "Nagasakiya and Holland House, Bell of Time" which I am interested in. Or there seems to be a story that the direction of Kanda at the end of Imagawa Bridge is written. If this is discovered somewhere, it is a great discovery.

Dogs, horses, cows, etc. are also written, and you can clearly understand the life of the Edo period.

At the end of the Kidai Shoran, a high bill of Nihonbashi is drawn. There are three letters (actuals).

The first is the official document issued by the magistrate in May 1711, Masatokumoto (1711).

*　I want to be a parent and child brothers and couples and other relatives, and I should be able to reach the subordinates. What the masters should do in each direction

*　You must not be overdoing everything, without spending your family business exclusively.

*　To do something that should be harmed or unreasonable;

*　A ban on all kinds of hammering

*　He humbled his argument, and he should not meet him at any young time. It's something that you don't have to put your hands on ...

The second is the prohibition of the Christian sect, and the third is the law concerning guns in 1721.

The contents of the "Odosho" are words that can be used not only in the Edo period but also in the present day. The celebrity II, who is arrested for dragging and exploding, feels painful. Why don't you put a "high bill" in front of the entertainer's house?

June 5 is an Environment Day, which was established to commemorate the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, which was held in Stockholm from June 5, 1972.

In response to Japan's proposal, the United Nations has designated June 5 as World Environment Day, and in Japan, the Basic Environmental Law (1993) defines "Environment Day".

In addition, from fiscal 1991, the month of June is designated as “Environment Month”. During June, various events will be held nationwide by relevant ministries and local governments (from the Ministry of the Environment website).

That's why "Environmental Panel Exhibition" is also being held here in Chuo-ku.

At the venue, the effects and countermeasures of environmental issues occurring on a global scale, and what we can work on are displayed in an easy-to-understand panel.

It is a very useful panel exhibition that makes the earth where we live difficult to live and easy to live are the consciousness, mind, and action of each of us who live now.

By the way, environmental panels are also being exhibited at the following venues.

Chuo-ku government office 1st floor lobby (May 26 (Fri)-June 8 (Thu))

When Sadanji's `` Hoshikage Doemon '' appeared on the main flower path, and Nizaemon's `` Gosho Gorozo '' appeared on the temporary flower path with their unders, the inside of the hall was suddenly excited by the too coolness, and the dialogue over the two flower path The audience seats are completely part of the stage. This is "Kabuki". This time, "Sogamoyota Teshino Imperial Palace (Zome)" (Gorozo Gosho) is a performance of "Gojo-zaka Nakanocho", "Koya inner room", and "Konouchi Night Stay Up". There is no place to cut off the sadistic "Tokitori Kill" and Ozume's Goro Kura. Along with Sparrow Uemon who plays Satsuki, the crest of Japanese lantern along Yoshiwara is also connected to Kyoya. There was a line that I was a little worried about, so in 2015 and 2015, I was asked to show two performance scripts recently, and when I look at the complete collection of silent Ami, the line changes little by little depending on the combination of actors and actors I realized again. When I was young, I was only looking at the fun of the muscles and the appearance of the actors, but with age, I gradually became interested in the details. Koshiro, who has been half a year until the 3rd generation of parents and descendants in January next year, will perform in "Kamakura Sandaiki" and Shin Hasegawa's new Kabuki "One Sword Tawarairi". The ivy of "one sword" is Sarunosuke.

It is a well-known play in which Shigebei Komagata, who is dressed as Koshiro-san, who became a servant 10 years later and helped the ivy parent and child who was benefited. I can't see it) It is very surprising that Shigerubei, who was a striking figure, appears as a dashing foreigner.

In the lunch section, why don't you feel refreshed at "Mezuki Hachiman Festival" (Shinsuke Shuya), "Ukiyo Bath", "Gosho Sakuraborigawa Night Study", Kabuki?

　The Gallery Night Party 2017 was held grandly on May 26, with 21 galleries in Ginza participating.

First of all, Ginza Yanagi Gallery. The "Hiro Okano Exhibition" was being held, and the artist explained the scenes of the work.

Japanese clothes in the gallery!　Ryuishi, the customers of the gallery in Ginza are elegant. It's a great picture.　The prepared wine, canape, was very delicious.

Next, I visited Nichido Gallery. Nichido Gallery was entitled "The 54th Taiyo Exhibition" to commemorate the 90th anniversary of its founding, and was exhibited in one hall from late masters representing modern Japanese Western painting to up-and-coming expected new artists.　I asked some questions here, but I was able to tell you carefully.　The wine was also delicious.

　At Akika-do, the work of Kuniyoshi Utagawa of Ukiyo-e and the work of Hiroo Suzuki's painter "Sakata Kaidomaru" attracted attention.

　At Nagai Gallery, I was able to listen to the story of Koshi Takagi, and talked about surprises at the work shown in the photo.

In addition, I visited three galleries, but I will omit it due to space limitations.

The fun tour of the gallery in Ginza was close to the dusk, and it was the end time in no time. Next time, I would like to visit during the Christmas season. I'm looking forward to it.
