Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

This year, the cherry blossom season has finally come.

Fifteen years have passed since I moved to Chuo-ku, and after that, how many times I can see the cherry blossoms ... has become stronger with the year. "Is it a cherry tree that reminds me of various things?"

It's a photo that doesn't look different, but with the intention of fixed-point observation ...
　

　First of all, from Ishikawajima Park, see Eitai Bridge and Tokyo Sky Tree.

　Tsukuda Park

　In Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, the Ryujin Festival was held. I'm feasted with the juice.

　From Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, see River City. The park was quite crowded.

　Akashicho "Akatsuki Park"

　Is it the Chuo-ku Tourism Association that some of the photos have (C) Chuo City Tourism Association?

March 12, a fine weather reminiscent of Haruchika. We took a walk in Akashicho and Tsukuda. Will the cherry blossoms bloom in another two weeks?

　Go up Tsukishima Station on the Metro Yurakucho Line and Toei Oedo Line, and there is a store called "Meat Takasago" in the direction of Aioi Bridge on Kiyosumi-dori, making it a famous meat shop known to those who know it.

　The photo was taken on New Year's Eve last year, but I was a little surprised that the procession was running from the store to Aioi Bridge.

　They include grilled pork, Yamagata Japanese black beef, Kakuni, roast beef, beef motsu stew, beef sushi curry, and Japanese black beef beef tongue.

　Yukio Mishima and Nobu Mitani were classmates at Gakushuin, but Mishima sent a postcard with Mitani, who had joined earlier. Focusing on such postcards, Mitani's book about Mishima's memories is "Yukio Mishima, a book published in 1985, Nakakou Bunko 1999), but in the book "February 19, 1945" I would like to introduce the air raids on Ginza as follows.

"... I also went to the ruins of Ginza. After Yamano, the burnt score dances like a fluttering style, and each time after the baking, a sign stands up claiming the existence of Yamano and Mikimoto historic sites, and even business card reception is set up, and it is the Tama cemetery. With white ink on the wall around, the family is safe. ・... I was surprised because the space between Hattori and the Kyobunkan Building, which were empty, was so close to it as usual. Even if Ginza becomes round-burned, this is not a great feeling. In the hometown squad (Note; during the inspection in his hometown of Kakogawa River), the first class soldier from Meiji Gakuin thought that he had been worried about the safety of Ginza. This city is a lover for people in Tokyo. The sadness of the little corner that you should have known on your own has reached the ruins of the fire, so-called Ginza-dori can be a big thing. ・・・・」

　The ruins of Ginza are described as "Tama Cemetery." Following the letter of February 24:

"... Because of the air raid, theater, who had a big meeting for a long time, had no first day, and Tokyo without a play was deserted with fire. ・There are also descriptions such as "..."

　It is known that at the beginning of Yukio Mishima's novel "Kyoko no Ie", there is a description of Kachidokibashi and its surroundings, but it is stated in the March 10, 1958 (Monday) part of "Naked Body and Costume" about coverage of Kachidokibashi and its surroundings.

＞Every day, I think I'll write a long book "Kyoko's House", but I'm scared and I can't write it out. When it comes to 1,000 pieces, there is nothing to explore the brain. I want to use the scenery around Harumi-cho in front of Tsukishima for prologue, so I take a taxi and go there. It's just three p.m., and it's time to climb Kachidokibashi. This is used, with intuition, going down the car and taking notes on the way up the bridge. When I finally went to Harumi-cho, I came here to take notes to write a few years ago, "Happiness Go Deho" (a completely failed newspaper novel, but I don't think it's a bad work myself). Compared to, I'm surprised at the completely changed scenery. I don't have much interest in taking notes. It also goes to the tip of Shinonome on the other side of Harumi Wharf. A few men were talking to the sea. When it comes to smuggling consultation, the voice is high, the sea is bright, not. （28－28）

　Yukio Mishima's novel "Kyoko no Ie" was published in 1958 (1958) in the first issue of the magazine "Voice" until Chapters 1 and 2, followed by Shinchosha in 1959 (1959) the following year. Two books, "Part 1" and "Part 2" were published at the same time. The description is as follows.

＞From a distance, you can see that cars are crowded around Kachidokibashi. I wonder if it was an accident, the collection said. However, I realized that it was time for the opening and closing bridge to rise. Shunkichi beat his tongue. He said, "Let's give up or get rid of the landfill. However, Natsuo and Kyoko wanted to see the bridge that they had never seen before, so they stopped the car in front of Kanari and went to see it all across the railway bridge. Shunkichi and the harvest have a somewhat uninterested face.

　The central part is a steel plate. Only that part opens and closes. Before and after that, the staff stood with a red flag, and a parked car was crowded. He was blocked by the chain of Ichijo at the end of the sidewalk. There were a considerable number of spectators, but when the traffic was blocked, there were listeners and on-sites who were selling oil.

　And the iron plate on the train track was black, shy, without putting anything on it. And a man saw it from both sides.

　In the meantime, the center of the steel plate began to swell. The part gradually raised his head and opened the cracks. The steel plate came up, and the railings of the steel on both sides, and the arches of the steel, with a dull light on the pillars, roughly up. Natsuo thought this movement was beautiful.

　When the steel plate is finally going to be perpendicular, the dents of the countless steel studs on both sides run down with thin smoke. The small shadows of countless steel studs on both sides gradually come into contact with the steel studs, and the shadows of the balustrade on both sides gradually distorted and moved. As soon as the steel plate became completely perpendicular, the shadow was also quiet. Natsuo raised his eyes and saw a gull over the pillars of the iron arch that fell down.

　I've been waiting for a long time. ・・・・・

　The car crossed Kachidokibashi, passed the town of Tsukishima, and further crossed Reimeibashi. The flat wilderness was blue as far as the eye could see, and a wide grid-grained paved road. The sea breeze bumped my cheeks. Shunkichi stopped his car at the runway, which is located at the end of the U.S. military facility. A few poplars were shining in the sun on the other side of the U.S. （11－10）
