Chuo-ku, a circular water city

[Asunaro] July 31, 2017 16:00


August 1 is Water Day. August 1-7 is a week of water.

 

Since the Edo period, rivers and waterways have played a central role in transportation.
We have formed the bustle of the city from a logistics base by boat.

In recent years, Chuo-ku, blessed with waterside space, has taken advantage of its location.
We are promoting community development.

In the past, not only as a means of transportation, but also as a means of living
At the waterside, which was used while enjoying fun and atmosphere.
As it was.

Green roads, terraces, and water buses are maintained, and breaks, walks and walks.
You can enjoy cruising. While imagining the scenery of the time
Why don't you think about the benefits of water?

When you go out, take thorough measures against sunlight and hydration.
Please keep in mind.

[Asunaro] July 19, 2017 14:00

July 23 is Fumi's Day.

 

Digital age, printer printing, e-mail, SNS, etc.
The means of communication has emerged, but if it is handwritten

At the same time, the warmth full of humanity and local landscape signs etc.
I also want to value the analog appeal.

Famous Fuji of Chuo-ku

[Asunaro] July 14, 2017 09:00


The season of climbing Mt.

 Fujizuka. jpg

 

When the Fuji religion flourished during the Kyoho period of the Edo period, Edo was the center.
The Fujiko expanded to include "Edo 888 lectures, 80,000 followers."
I was told. In response to this rise, anyone can visit Fuji.

Many Fuji mounds imitating Mount Fuji were built in Edo City as possible.

It was called "Fuji-san" by the common people and was popular.

 

Currently, the only Fujizuka remaining in Chuo-ku is located.
It is located on the grounds of Tepposhu Inari Shrine.
※Don't climb Mt. Fujizuka.

In the Tenpo era, the Inari numbering in Edo City became Ozeki in the Nishino area.
It's a famous place. In the past, it was located along the sea, and the view around it became a ukiyo-e.
That's right.

 

It has attracted the religion and interest of people living in Edo, and still continues to grow.
It has been passed down.

Tsunouchi's own style

[Asunaro] July 11, 2017 09:00


I found a cedar ball.

July 11th is "Tsunouchi Chino Day".

Because the word "horn" is composed of July 11

It seems like that. 。 。 Among the liquor stores, it's in the store

It is "Kakuuchi" that enjoys sake.

 Compare jpg

The culture of the common people has continued since the Edo period.

The state of the liquor store has changed, but the style of standing-drinking is

Basically, it doesn't change.

Try alcohol with the label you care about.

Drink and compare the same sake brewery's.

There are a lot of things.

young sake Signboard

[Asunaro] July 5, 2017 09:00

 
A cedar ball that lets you know that young sake has been made.

The deep blue leaves that have just been hung on the eaves will eventually turn brown.

Wither, this change in color conveys the aging of young sake.

Sugitama began to be used as a landmark since the Edo period.

The Edo kid, who loved the first thing, asked for young sake.

It is now decorated as an interior of lucky items.

Even though the meaning changes, it's a fashionable advertisement.

How about moistening your throat a little after walking around the cedar ball?

Natsukoshi Kaya's wheel

[Asunaro] June 19, 2017 14:00

 
"The person who purifies Natsukoshi of Minazuki
   "Chitose's life-long life."

 Koami Shrine. jpg
<Koami Shrine>

On June Eve, great exorcism is called Natsukoshi's exorcism.

On the approach to the shrine, there is a Chinowa made in the shape of a circle.

Pass this three times or sing the above song three times before passing through.

It cleans your mind and body.
