Chuo-ku Cultural and International Exchange Promotion Association International Exchange Salon Fun Event

[Silver] March 26, 2013 11:00

On March 16th, the theme of "The present and the old days of the game" was "Pokemon Battle Chess Board Game", "Go Fish Card Game", "Shaven Turning / Hyakunin Isshu", "Shogi Breaking / Komatori Game" I enjoyed playing.

First of all, let's introduce the game on the right. Go Fish Card Game. In this game, first hand out five card cards one by one, guess who has the same number card in clockwise order, and for example, "M, M, do you have the 6th card?" If you have it, get the card and get the card with the same number gathered, go out to the field and get the card you have, and if you lose the card you have, the winner will end.

The game on the upper left is a new game, "Pokemon Battle Chesss". In the piece, the number and the progressable direction are indicated by arrows. If you hit the opponent and your number is large, the opponent's card will be exited. The rules are complicated, but it's fun to remember.

 The upper right is a scene where you enjoy "shaven turning" using a picture card of Hyakunin Isshu. In this play, we distribute some pieces to each person at first, then pull them one by one, and when the monk comes out, put out your own tag on the spot. This little father lost his tag four times and repeatedly went bankrupt, but this is a scene where he obtained all the cards that were on the spot with the princessvirgo' picture card. This is an interesting game that seems to be rich.

 The photo on the left is "Shogi Breaking / Komatori Game". Shogi pieces are piled up, the pieces are moved from the board to obtain them without making a noise, and compete for points. It's interesting to use nerves and nervous games.

In addition to studying Japanese, I was able to interact through the game, and after the game, I enjoyed talking cakewith tea japaneseteaand sweets. If you are reading this article, would you like to join us next time? Today, there were also people from countries such as China and Australia, first graders and 15-year-old boys.

Takashimaya Tokyo Store, which celebrated its 80th Anniversary 

1. March 21, 2013 14:00

The Takashimaya Nihonbashi store, which completed Nagar Skin Care at the end of last year, celebrated its 80th birthday on March 20. The effect of careful care is outstanding, and this skin is 80 years old! I'm a little enviable.

100_1006.JPG 100_1001.JPG
Takashimaya, founded in Kyoto, built a new store in Tokyo in 1933. It is 2 floors below ground and 8 floors above ground and is fully air-conditioned. The copy at that time, "Hot place in Tokyo, where I left Takashimaya" is famous. After that, the extension was also made by Togo Murano, and it was designated as a heavy sentence for the first time as a department store building in 2009 (2009).


Various events are scheduled from March 20 to April 2 as the 80th anniversary of the opening of the store. I missed today's `` mini-concert by Chuo-ku Joto Elementary School Children '' to decorate the opening, but on the 22nd, talk show by Somegoro Ichikawa, and on each floor, 800 yen in the name of an anniversary pack, 800 yen, 800 yen uniform bargain price The product PAK is crowded.

The left above is a miniature that reproduces the store at the time of opening. Next door is a panel of the history of the store since its opening.

You can also see Takashimaya's specialty mascot, "Rose-chan" dolls, are slightly embarrassed here and there on the floor with different kimonos.

Is this year's cherry blossoms fast? Nihonbashi Sakura-dori St. The flowers bloom for another 3 minutes.

Why don't you go to Nihonbashi to serve as a cherry blossom viewing?

 Hosted by Fukushima Prefecture, Fukushima Prefecture Tourism and Local Products Exchange Association. Cooperation is Kyoto City, Gunma Prefecture, Yamagata Prefecture, and Aizu Wakamatsu Regional Product Sales Promotion Council. stamp rally's mount says, "Fukushima Prefecture and each antenna shop will hitsign03 230 people." The Fukushima Prize is equivalent to 50,000 yen for accommodation tickets in Fukushima Prefecture. From the shops exhibited at the antenna shop, it is a guide that Fukushima famous sake and specialty products will be hit. In addition, there seems to be a lot of accommodation tickets for hotels in Fukushima Prefecture. Immediately, I got a mount and went around each antenna shop.

Shimbashi Enbujo "Hanagata Kabuki" in March.

1. March 7, 2013 12:00

The bright news of "Kikunosuke's marriage" jumped into the Kabuki world, which had a gloomy feeling in the sad news of popular actors, and whether the spring goddess was hashai, 16 degrees yesterday. It was cheerful in April and I went to Ukiuki theater.

100_0973.JPG 100_0975.JPG


In place of the Kabukiza Theater, which closed in May 2010 for rebuilding, theater's Ogura, which has been performing Kabuki almost every month for the past three years, is also being watched for a while this month. As you know, the "turret" was listed in front of the playhouse as a proof of the Shogunate in the Edo period. On top of the pillar is two Brahma (yorishiro (the "great hut" Yukio Hattori) to invite God. The turret of the crest of "Setsugetsuhana" has been completely used to it, so I feel a little lonely when I wonder if I can see it until autumn.


This month, "Hanagata Kabuki" is centered on young people. My goal in the daytime section is Miwa of Mikasayama Goten, the first role of Kikunosuke. In the past year, Kikunosuke played 15 roles in the first role in the 15th performance, all of which have been highly evaluated. . Miwa, who came after the courteous woman, is a pitiful role of being stabbed by the sting of a woman who needs the blood of the skeptical of the bullying officer. I am fascinated by the so cuteness and beauty when it appeared on the flower path! The pretty daughter burned jealousy and disturbed her hair, and performed the head brilliantly, and exchanged words with the neighbor, "Is it really the first role?"


The other part of the day is "Oxmatsu of Darkness". Matsu Midori is also a challenge for the first time. Both Kikunosuke and Matsu Midori are their grandfathers and fathers, Umekojo, and the role of the second and third generation predecessors. I was deeply moved by the fact that the succession of the stage will continue.

Kabukiza's "Oguraage", which completed the completion ceremony on February 26, also ended on the 4th. The countdown watch is also less than 30 days. It's almost until the first day of the opening on April 2.


The theater Night Club is "Ichijo Daikura Tan" (which is also the first role) and "Two Oku" by Somegoro, who have returned from injury and have been showing a lively stage since last month. Please take a look at the fresh stage of the first role of day and night and Hanagata actors.


Mehar's me was hoping to see Mrs. Kikunosuke at the reception, but at the moment it seems that only the first day was seen. Look forward to the evening.


Tickethon Shochiku 0570-000-489 10:00~18:00 Chiakiraku is on the 26th.

 

 

◆Local activity groups in Chuo-ku gather "Machi no Dai Cultural Festival"-3/2, Collaboration Station Chuo-

[Akira Makibuchi / Sharakusai] March 5, 2013 13:00

An event in which NPOs and volunteer groups operating in Chuo-ku participated was held on March 2 (Saturday) from 1:00 pm to 6:00 pm at the center of the collaborative station in Jushi Square. It was open to the public on this day, and it was an opportunity for participating organizations to show their daily activities to the visitors, and also a place for exchange between groups.

 

0913_491_130302 daibunnkasai01.JPGUnder the title of "The Great cultural festival of Knowing, Laughing and Connecting Town", 13 organizations including the Chuo-ku Cultural Property Supporters Association participated and exhibited at workshops and other events. This event has been held in the ward office meeting room, etc. under the name of the trade fair, but this time the venue has been moved here.

 

The Chuo-ku Cultural Properties Supporters Association, which is active as a volunteer guide for walking around the history and sightseeing towns of Chuo-ku, introduced a virtual experience of walking around Chuo-ku for 30 minutes from 1:00 pm (photo). The three courses, Nihonbashi, Tsukiji, Tsukuda Island, and Ginza, were screened using slide shows, and each course staff explained and presented highlights and hidden spots. It was designed to rediscover the charm of the history and sightseeing of Chuo-ku, which is different from the actual town walk.

 

In this cultural festival, "Let's find the spring of Jisshi Park!" The workshop will walk around the park, observe and touch the petals of the planted loupes with a loupe to see the plants close, and talk about the rakugo de area by a rakugo artist living in Ningyocho. A fun plug lamb such as a story was unfolded. ●Akira Makibuchi
