East wind blows the smell of smell　
Without plum blossoms, forget spring　
　
　

Red plums and white plums bloom in Kameido Tenjin in Koto-ku.
The grounds are wrapped in a faint scent of plums.
　
　
　
By the way, there is Mototoku Inari Shrine in the concurrent company of Kameido Tenjin.
　
It was worshiped as the deity of the Kawamura family in Mikawa country.
At the beginning, Tokuemon-cho along the Kanda River with the opening of Edo.
In the house and after the great fire of the Meiryaku era, it was relocated to the headquarters.
The shrine is also relocated.
　
The worshipers are constantly thinking about many worship services.
From the house to the current location (near Sannobashi, Tachikawa, Sumida-ku)
Yes, it's.
　
At the invitation of Hosokawa, a spirit is sent to Nihonbashi-Hamacho, Chuo-ku.
The enshrined Mototoku Inari Shrine Tsunashiki Temma Shrine is enshrined.

February 23rd, Mount Fuji Day.

At Machiya in Nihonbashi, Edo Castle and Mount Fuji are as much as possible.
The city planning was done so that I could expect.

Suruga Tefu and Surugacho are located in front of the street in Suruga.
It is a town designed so that you can see Mount Fuji.
The name of the town was given from this view.

It depicts a broad composition that forms a pair with Mount Fuji.
You can feel good luck on the streets of the town.

Currently, stone structures such as the main building of the Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store and the Mitsui Main Building are made of stone.
It's a street lined with Historic buildings.

I can't see Mount Fuji hidden in the building, but I can't see it.

It is also known as a famous spot for cherry blossoms in spring.

“clothing clothes”, “kisararai”, “seisararai”, etc.
There are various theories about the etymology of Kisaragi.

Among them, the theory that "the moon where grass shoots protrude" turned.
I want to win a vote in a sense. 。 。

In February of the new calendar, the cold is still severe, and the plums at Kiyomasa Koji Temple are plums.
It has the beauty of winter trees.

On the calendar, spring begins.

"Plum" is the coldest season of the year when it blooms.
But it's the spring season.

I feel the coming of spring. This sensibility is wonderful.

It's almost time to release Kiyoka after cold bitterness.

The tea room "Nyoan" built by Urakusai Oda (the younger brother of Nobunaga Oda) is one of Japan's three most famous seats.

After many relocations, I am currently living in Inuyama City.
You can experience this charm at the Mitsui Memorial Museum.

An exhibition case that recreates the interior of the National Treasure Tea Room "Nyoan", which is related to the Mitsui family.

Now, "National Treasure Shino Chawan" is on display and is worth seeing.

I thought it was not wide because it was a two-and-a-half tatami mat.

I feel the actual space is wide.

I think this is one of the reasons for this.

And it leads to room around the tea ceremony entrance.

It seems that there is also the advantage of the ease of use that makes it easier to serve.

I won the tea ceremony space that combines the use and beauty.

A moment of lingering in the cafe attached to it.

Eat sweet Japanese sweets and then drink matcha.
It's very comfortable.

An exhibition of treasures lined with national treasures.

Rather than watching in photography, it is better to see the exhibits live.
It will be very different as an experience.

This is an exhibition case that reproduces the national treasure tea room "Nyoan".
What is the place where the "National Treasure Shino Bowl Meiuka" is combined?
I think you can feel a lot.

Not only the front, back, left and right of the bowl, but also the construction of a hill from the prospect
There is creativity and a highlight in all directions.

The box book is attached by Sekishu Katagiri.

"Yamazato's no Hanatsumichi
　"Yukifumi, here and there."

Did you look like Shino glaze as snow and flowers?
It's a wonderful song. It was on the street.

The annual "National Treasure Yukimatsu Figure Screen" is also open to the public.

Be sure to visit and see this rare national treasure.
How about it?

New Year's Day in the garden.

A cup of matcha at Ochiyaya in Nakajima.
Shosei confectionery has a very elegant taste.

From the stall, which is set up to protrude into the pond, the scenery unique to winter spreads out.

Snow hanging is an accent to the winter garden.

This is the Ochiyaya of Tsubame, which was specially open to the public.
The view from the top is a valuable opportunity.

The hawk flew in the sky with good luck, and it was a peaceful New Year in the pleasant sunshine.
