I walk. I walk. I just walk.
The basis of walking around the city is walking.
My basic approach to various places in Chuo-ku was to walk from each station on the Yamanote Line.
There are many subways in the ward, but depending on the destination, you have to cross multiple lines.
When you think, "Oh, come here," you will say, "Is it easier to understand if you walk?"
This summer, I had the opportunity to concentrate on using Metrolink Nihonbashi.
It's convenient. It's easy.
Metrolink Nihonbashi is a free bus that travels around the Yaesu, Nihonbashi, and Kyobashi areas.
It runs about 4km per lap every 10 to 15 minutes.
The number of bus stops is 14.
・It connects major facilities on the east side of Tokyo Station, such as Tokyo Station Yaesu Exit, Subway Mitsukoshimae Station, Muromachi 1-chome (in front of Ninben), Nihonbashi 2-chome (in front of Takashimaya), and Kyobashi 2-chome (Edgran).
It is important to note that it goes in one direction, so you want to hold down the destination and bus operation route in advance.
There are some bus stops that are difficult for first-time people to notice.
On Chuo-dori, etc., other vehicles may stop on the road, so be especially careful.
The "Free Tour Bus" app is a great help when using it.
Put it on your smartphone and display "Metrolink Nihonbashi" from the menu,
You can see the current location of the map, route, and bus.
You can also select the bus stop notation in English, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
If you know the current location of the bus and the expected arrival time in real time, you can move more systematically.
The bus is operated by Hinomaru Motor Kogyo with the support of local companies.
Vehicles also have electric buses with low floor, low noise and low pollution.
The stress of the user when riding is also kept low.
And the ring-shaped design applied to the body of the bus depicts the "Edo Famous Spot Map folding screen".
This is a work that vividly depicts Nihonbashi and Kyobashi during the Edo period.
It's hard to notice, but if you have the opportunity, let's check it out.
If you use it well, you can shorten the time and expand the range of movement.
In the area around Tokyo Station, redevelopment projects are underway at various locations.
If you take a short period of time, the scenery may change significantly.
It is also fun to use easy-to-use transportation and look at the changing city.
