IMG_20180806_121822a.jpgI visited the Nihonbashi Tourist Information Center for the first time in about a year.

From the center of Nihonbashi, we provide hot information about how to enjoy the city of Nihonbashi, such as ship information, long-established stores and famous stores, sightseeing spots, information on events and festivals.

This time, we also took care of Mr. Shiro Yamamoto, the operation manager of the Nihonbashi Tourist Information Center.

We also talked to the Nihonbashi Tourist Information Center Concierge Aya Saito.

To commemorate the first anniversary of the opening of the information center, the information center original goods are produced and sold.

The name of the bridge is written on the front, and the back is "Nihonbashi Tourist Information Center".

It is said that commercialization was realized by receiving many voices requesting the sale of a map of the nearby bridge (upper right) posted in the information center.

If you are on a boat out of the Sojuro riverbank in front of the information center, it seems that you should take this and look at the bridge.
