Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

On January 5 (Tuesday), I went to the first market of Tsukiji Market to feel the liveliness of the New Year.

 

First of all, a New Year's greeting was given to the worship place of Mizu Shrine.

The Tsukiji Market will finally be relocated to Toyosu in November this year, so this New Year's scenery is also worth watching.

 

This place of worship was also transferred to Toyosu, so there was a form in this precinct to raise donations for the transition.

 

I felt that I had begun to move in various ways for the relocation, and finally realized that it was the year.

If hundreds of years later, even if the fish market was in a different place from Toyosu, I think this god will surely be close to the place where the fish market is located.

 

 

After that, I wandered around the shore of the fish. You could see New Year's greetings here and there.

 

Oh~~!　This is a treasure ship of vegetables.

Oh~. Somehow, thank you.

 

After having breakfast at the usual curry shop, I decided to wait for 9 o'clock to visit and go to the market.

As expected, New Year's Day. After all, it's different from the usual day.

 

This is also one of the New Year's scenery of Tsukiji Market, the flag of the first load.

Oh~. I'm happy to see you.

 

This is the beginning of this year's lively Tsukiji market.

Market officials may be a difficult year this year, but I hope that the last day of Tsukiji will be successfully reached and a new day in Shintenchi will be reached.

 

 

At the end of the year, there was a report in a newspaper about the plan for the site after the relocation of Tsukiji Market.

It's about creating a waterside transportation facility, and it's still quite a bit ahead.

 

Well, if you take care of the waterside, I don't want you to build as tall as possible on the site of the market or on the waterside.

 

In order for the water of the Sumida River to be reflected blue, a large sky is required to be reflected in orange.

I don't think water can shine on my own.

I think the charm of the waterside is that the sky is wide.

In the lobby on the first floor of the Chuo-ku government office, the winning works of the "Chuo-ku Sightseeing Photo Contest" are now being exhibited.

It's a big photo, so what you feel and feel is a bit different.

It was recruited last fall, but there were 501 entries, of which 37 were awarded.

 

This contest has a long history of many times, and has been supported and supported by many sponsoring organizations.

It seems that there is not much other contest where the number of applications is increasing year by year, and this year, people of all ages from their teens to 80s were awarded.

 

The award ceremony was held at the Chuo-ku Office on December 22 (Tuesday), and a certificate of merit and souvenir were handed to the winners from representatives of each sponsoring organization, etc., with the help of Mr. Usui of Miss Chuo .

 

 

I am very interested in this contest.

 

The theme of this photo contest is to express the charm of Chuo-ku as a "work" with only "one photo and the title attached to it" in line with the theme of "promotion of tourism".

At the time of recruitment

"The purpose is not just to compete for photography technology, but to introduce the charm and rich tourism resources of Chuo-ku through taking pictures, and to encourage many people to visit the city. ]

I was guided to you.

 

The method is different, but it is the same as expressing it in the "work" as an article in the "correspondent blog" I'm writing now.

Just by feeling what is expressed in the winning works, it will be quite helpful for me to write my blog.

 

"Sightseeing" refers to "light" as "watching".

 

This "sightseeing" was created from the word "Kankoku no Hikari" in an old Chinese book, and the original meaning is "going to other countries and seeing and learning good points". It seems to be.

 

Now, I think this word "sightseeing" is used differently from the original meaning.

"Light" Not only "beautiful", but also things that humans feel, such as fun, delicious, amazing, cute, beautiful, comfortable, scary, sad, etc.

And I interpret it without permission that "watching" means "feeling".

 

In the prize-winning works, "light", which is felt by the viewer, is well expressed in square photographs and in the title letters.

 

I wonder if the work as an article on the correspondent blog that I wrote can express "light" that you can feel well ... I'm a little worried.

 

 

Perhaps even if you look at the work, it may be difficult to feel the way the work on display was created, the commitment and struggles.

 

However, if you go to the Chuo-ku government office and see the winning works, you can enjoy a little again if you can "feel" what kind of "light" is expressed in the work as a point You may.

 

Is this what I like?

Nostalgia ... I felt such a light.
