Around the public bath in Chuo-ku③

[Satoken] June 19, 2012 08:30

In the rainy season, it's time to go into a public bath and refresh yourself.

Today, I would like to introduce the famous "Kinharuyu" in the downtown area of Ginza. It's inside the building.

The inside was an old-fashioned public bath atmosphere contrary to expectations, and it was surprisingly good.

There are many people who know it because it was introduced on TV. Working at nearby restaurants and Tsukiji Markets

It seems that there are many people who live in the neighborhood.

Sanno Festival

120610_1327~01.jpgThis weekend I saw the Sanno Festival. Unfortunately, it was raining on Saturday 9th, but Saturday turned around.

We were blessed with the weather and there were a lot of spectators.

 

It was a masterpiece to see the portable shrine of each town council gathering and walking along Chuo-dori. 。 120610_1327~01.jpg

Around the public bath in Chuo-ku②

It's been a long time. It's a season when the climate is better and the wind after the bath is pleasant.

This time, I would like to introduce the public baths in the city.

First of all, it's "Ginza Yu".

When I first found it, I was surprised that there was a public bath in this place. Ginza is just right in the city center

It's near here.

As soon as you open the door, there is a stand, and when you pay, you will receive the locker key and go up to the 2nd floor.

The second floor is the dressing room and bath.

I'm always surprised, but there are quite a few customers. In general, we will go shortly after the start of business on Saturdays and Sundays.

Some people have already come. Some people seem to be working in a nearby store, mixed with local people.

I thought there was also a need for public baths in the city.

Next is Tsukishima Onsen. It is located in a building along Monja Street in Tsukishima.

This is also a bath on the second floor. There were many local people and parents here too.

It looks delicious with monja and beer on the bath.

I'm looking forward to the next time.

 

 

Tokyo Minato Festival

[Satoken] May 13, 2012 08:30

DSC00103.JPGI went to Tokyo Minato matsuri in the afternoon. I walked round trip from home to Harumi to solve my daily lack of exercise. It was a nice day to walk. In front of the venue, police white motorcycles and police cars were training. It was very cool.

By the way, the weather at the Minato Festival was bad and the wind was a bit strong, so the one who performed seemed very hard.

There were many children, and it seemed to be fun on fire trucks and unusual ships. It will be held tomorrow, so please go out.

Around the public bath in Chuo-ku①

On the 5th, when the major holidays were two days left, I went to a public bath with thought.

When I was a child and when I was a student, I went to a public bath for the first time in a long time.

 

The first place I went to was "World Yu" in Ningyocho.

It has an atmosphere that blends into the surrounding houses, which is likely to be overlooked if inadvertently.

I went immediately after the store opened, but there were already about 15 customers.

There was also a watch stand, and I remembered the public bath where I was a child.

There was a picture of Mount Fuji, an old weight scale, and a small Japanese-style garden, so I missed it for the first time.

There are two baths, one is somewhat deep and cannot sit inside.

The temperature was 44 degrees and it was hot for me. After all, Edokko likes to be hot.

In the coming season, it would be nice to have a cup at amazake Yokocho after a bath and cool down.

Where shall I go next?

 

 

 

Echizenbori Park cherry blossoms in full bloom

[Satoken] April 10, 2012 14:00

April 8. I went out for cherry blossom viewing with my family today.

On the way back from Yasukuni Shrine and Chidorigafuchi, it is Echizenbori Park near my home.

Echizenbori Park has a small pool, and during the summer vacation, children play under the supervision of neighbors adults.

There was also an elephant, and I was watching the cherry blossoms today.
