The Chuo Ward Environmental Information Center, located on the 6th floor of Tokyo Square Garden (3-1-1 Kyobashi), introduces environmental organizations in Chuo-ku.

The period is from Sunday, October 25 to November 3 (Tuesday / holiday), and the time is from 9:00 to 21:00 (). The last day will be until 15:00.

It's open until 9:00 p.m., so you can stop by on your way home.

Thinned wood from forests in Chuo-ku is used at the entrance of the Environmental Information Center and everywhere in the exhibition hall.

Here, the daily activities of organizations that are active in various fields such as urban environment, natural environment, and living environment, mainly in Chuo-ku are introduced.

On November 1st (Sun), the day of the whole Chuo-ku Museum 2015, a free workshop will be held, such as making bamboo paper dragonflies by organizations working on preserving satoyama and talking about bees by organizations that do beekeeping on the roof of buildings in Ginza.

This is the 12th anniversary of the “Environmental Festival for Children” held this Saturday.

Oktoberfest is the world's largest festival held in Munich, the capital of Bayern Province, Germany, held from mid-September to early October, and about 6 million people visit the venue every year (about 9 times the size of Tokyo Dome). Last year, about seven million liters of beer were consumed.

It seems that the trigger was in 1810, when the wedding of Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Sachsen was celebrated by many Munich citizens.

In Japan, it seems that it was held in Hibiya City and the Red Brick Warehouse in Yokohama in 2003, and now it is called the "German Beer Festival" and is being held nationwide while changing the venue from spring to autumn.

In this autumn season, there is also a German beer restaurant in Ginza where you can enjoy the feeling of Oktoberfest.

We will introduce "German Beer & Wine Specialty Store Stein House Ginza" (2-4-6 Ginza, Chuo-ku) on the 8th floor of the Ginza Bellvia Building facing Namiki-dori St.

You can enjoy direct imported German beer and German premium wine.

German beer has many kinds and different tastes, and the glass is deep because there are glasses dedicated to the beer.

(The photo below shows ice wine)

The interior is a stylish space with furniture goods imported from Western Europe.

There is also a bar counter where you can enjoy beer or taste ham sausages imported directly from Germany.

I ordered "Ice Bine" (the King of German Cuisine), "Boilweisven (white sausage)" (Munich's specialty), "The Work Laut" (compatible with sausage), and "Black truffle-flavored French fries" (always delicious).

On October 30 (Fri), Yamada Denki's Concept LABI TOKYO (Concept Rabi Tokyo) (1-5-22 Yaesu) will open at Yaesu Exit of Tokyo Station.

Yamada Denki has developed LABI, a suburban store centered on Techland, and has opened stores one after another on the Yamanote Line in Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, Shibuya, and Shimbashi, but it finally appears at the Yaesu Exit of Tokyo Station in Japan.

Concept Ravi Tokyo is a new concept shop that proposes the latest products and services of leading manufacturers along with their lifestyle.

The concept of each floor from the first basement floor to the tenth floor (store area approximately 2,000 tsubo) is expressed in "Stage", and in addition to cutting-edge products, various service solutions, TAX FREE, companies, corporations, and government offices will be set up to constantly disseminate the latest information through events at each stage.

In the surrounding area, other buildings are being rebuilt, and Yaesu is changing rapidly, isn't it?

The photo was taken on October 22.

Pioneer Plaza Ginza is in the De Beers Ginza Building, which is just a short walk from Chuo-dori to Marronnier Street at the Ginza 2-chome intersection.

The De Beers Ginza Building is currently being rebuilt at the adjacent Okura Main Building, so you can see it from Chuo-dori. It is a building where the entire building is undulating (arrow below).

A limited-time Halloween event is being held here.

During the period, mini cocoons are dressed in Halloween costumes at every corner of the hall.

In addition, "numbers" are hidden in "Halloween Kokun", which lurks somewhere in the hall, and if you find all the numbers, you can get sweets.

Halloween costumes are also available, and it seems that you can enjoy commemorative photos at the special corner for a limited time.

The event will be held from Saturday, October 17 to November 3 (Tuesday / holiday).

Opening hours are from 11:00 to 19:00, and every Monday is closed.

You can also experience the latest version of Carrozzeria "Raku Navi" here.

The latest version of this "Raku Navi" is really "Raku".

As I walked along the street behind the Matsuya Ginza Main Store in Ginza 3-chome, I found a very bright red gate that stands out.

Matsuya Ginza Main Store is the entrance to the 2nd floor of the East Building of the newly established cosmetics counter for foreign tourists "Tourist Shop & Lounge" to strengthen inbound measures.

It seems that it opened on September 30.

In addition, it seems that a reception counter for ordering services using the Internet will be set up.

This will provide a system that allows customers from overseas to book and order products online before coming to Japan, shortening the purchase time and enabling efficient shopping.

It seems that each counter has a bilingual sales staff who speak Chinese and English, and the level of international service in the retail industry is improving at a tremendous speed.

Cozy Corner Ginza 1-chome Main Store (Ginza 1-8-1 Ikedaen Building) sells Halloween limited cakes with Disney characters as motifs for a limited time.

Vilans is a villain of Disney, with the motif of a petit cake, such as the 101 Wanchan Kruella, the Earthra of Little Mermaid, and Captain Hook of Peter Pan.
