A space with the Yaesu Underground Shopping Center "Ho"

[illy-ship Sun Ichiro] January 17, 2012 08:30

The Yaesu Underground Shopping Center is constantly renewing and replacing tenants at the forefront of fashion.


It is called Edo Tokyo Yaesu History on 1st basement street in outer moat, near Main Avenue.


There is a corner, and there are reproductions of Hiroshige's famous Edo Hundred Views "Yatsumi no Hashi" and Edo famous map folding screens.


It is on display. You can imagine the bustle that has been around for a long time and make it fun.

[illy-ship Sun Ichiro] December 20, 2011 08:30

In October, a monument of Yodo Odai was built in front of Yaesu Daibiru in Yaesu 2-chome. The patient's child is cute and open.

Hanamizuki on Matsuya Street

[illy-ship Sun Ichiro] Nov. 8, 2011 08:30

Namizuki is planted on Matsuya-dori, which passes through the border between Ginza 3-chome and 4-chome.

Spring is entertained with pink flowers, but now it has cute red fruits.

From now on, the leaves will turn red. You can feel the season even in the rows of trees in Ginza.

Mr. Yoshida, who became the advertising section manager of his hometown Shimane Prefecture, from the battle chief of the secret shrine "Hawk's Claw Team" who conquered the world.

You will be greeted at the Nihonbashi Shimanekan in the form of the mythology era.

In the Kansai area, we hope that Mr. Yoshida, who is popular with JR West Manner characters, will enter Tokyo.

On the side of the sidewalk, the NPO "Hana Kaido" manages the flowerbed beautifully.

Marigold is in full bloom.

Kirin at Nishi Honganji Temple karamon gate

[illy-ship Sun Ichiro] August 5, 2011 08:30

This year, the 750th anniversary of Shinran Saints, Kyoto Nishi Honganji Temple is very crowded.

Nishi Honganji Temple and Chuo-ku have a big edge.

One is Tsukiji Honganji Temple.

The official name is Jodo Shinshu Honganji Temple Honganji Temple Tsukiji Betsuin, and it is a separate temple of Nishi Honganji Temple in Kyoto.

There are a lot of events this year.

Just until August 6 (Saturday), the Noryo Bon Dance Festival is also being held.


The other is karamon gate.

It is said that it was the source of the Kirin Brewery Mark, headquartered in Shinkawa, Chuo-ku.

Why don't you go to Tsukiji Honganji this year, the 750th anniversary of Shinran Saints?

Also, at Nishi Honganji Temple in Kyoto, there are days when you can visit specially every month in the fall. You can see the national treasure Hiunkaku and Shoin, which are usually closed, so it is also recommended to see this Kirin.
