Let's grow Chuo-ku community bus

[Shitamachi Tom] May 27, 2009 09:15

20090522 Test Drive jpgFrom the end of this year, a "community bus" will run in our Chuo-ku.

Currently, specific introductions are being studied in the ward.

The other day, I participated in the test drive event. The bus is not of this specification, but it was a ride experience while running on the actual scheduled route.

(The photo shows a test drive that waits for departure in front of the ward office.)

 

What I learned again is, "There are various interesting areas in the city." I'm getting more and more interested.

I think this bus will be useful for sightseeing. We hope that not only inhabitants of a ward but also many people from outside the ward will visit and learn more about the charm of Chuo-ku.

 

 

Refreshing harmony in the quiet precincts

20090520tsukiji.JPG In the evening of late May, when the scent of early summer began to spread, a "survey to respect Japanese" was held on the grounds of Tsukiji Honganji Temple.

The five members of the opera unit "LEGEND" told us beautiful harmony. karaoke

It is a time to forget the hustle and bustle of the city, with famous Japanese and Western songs echoing in the precincts.

Since ancient times, shrines and temples have been a field of cultural transmission, but it is nice that many people gather in this way even today.

There are many other historical shrines and temples in Chuo-ku, so I would like to visit various places for a stroll. club

I pray for the happiness and development of the inhabitants of the ward.confident

 

 

In the evening sky after rain

P1000767_R.JPGLast weekend, a beautiful rainbow fell in the sky of Tsukiji and Akashicho where the rain had risen.

A large arc spread like wrapping around Tsukiji Honganji and St. Luke's Tower, and people passing by stopped and watched for a while.lovely

The area around Tsukiji and Akashicho is a town where the most advanced people walked around as "foreign settlements" during the Meiji period. A number of "the birthplace of Japan" are scattered.

How about a trail in Twilight?foot

 

By the way, the title was selected in honor of the famous song "In the night sky after rain" by Kiyoshiro Amino (died on May 2), which I love.night Thank you very much for the good song, Mr. Kiyoshi Lo.

20090506 View of Harumi from Toyomi. jpgThe major holidays will be settled on May 6th today.confident

Whether you are still absent, have resumed work or school work, or have been working all the time in the first place, I think you are spending this consecutive holiday season in various ways.

The weather was fine in the first half of the consecutive holidays, but cloudy and rainy days in the last two days. Is it cool down mode? I walked along the canal beside Toyomi Sports Park.shoe

20090502 Sumida Riverside jpg

The bright afternoon of a major holiday

From Kachidokibashi, we went along the Sumida River, passed Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, and went out on the banks around Shinkawa for a stroll. Take a leisurely walk overlooking Chuo-ohashi Bridge and River City 21.

This area is called "Sumida River Terrace", which was selected as one of the Eight Night Views of Chuo-ku.
