We took a walk near the planned Olympic Village site.

As you walk toward Harumi Wharf, you will find a vast vacant lot.

As you can see on the signboard, this is the planned site of the Olympic athlete village.

The construction is in the middle of the project.

 

This time we went to the Central Cleaning Center.

If you go up the stairs of the center, you will find a small park.

If you look right, you will see the Toyomi Ohashi Bridge under construction.

Route 2, which is under construction at Tsukiji Ohashi, continues to the left from Ohashi.

 

In front of the left, Asashio Kobashi is on the canal, and in the left rear is Takeshiba Pier. A big ship was berthing.

 

In this area, the scenery changes with each passing day.

It is only four years before the Tokyo Olympics in 2020.

It is also recommended to take a leisurely and spacious walk around the planned site during the autumn holidays.

 

There is also a bus stop near the Central Cleaning Center, and it is recommended to use a bus for a walk. The name of the bus stop is "Hot Plaza Harumi".

Betara City

[Tachibana] October 21, 2016 12:00

Today (October 20), I went to "Bettara City".

It's very cold in October when "Betara City" is often October! There are many days, but today's day was a warm day with temperatures rising to about 27 degrees Celsius, and it was not cold at all with a single shirt from evening to night.

This year, I came from Sugimori Shrine.

Kagura was performed on the stage of the shrine.

And at the Bon Dance Festival, people wearing happi coat of "Betara Ondo" were dancing.

There are many shops that are pickled in Betara, but roughly speaking, there are two trains, "Kinhisa" and "Shin Takaya".

This year, I bought one piece without skin at both shops.
 

 

In addition, a long-established store in Nihonbashi also has stalls and sells for sale.

Fir laver was a bargain at "Yamamoto Nori".

In addition, bargain products were lined up at many shops such as "Civilizationdo", "Ninben", and "Eel Ise Sada".
