While strolling through Yaesu, I found a signboard called "Emigration and Exchange Information Garden" in a building at the corner of the intersection of Yaesu Street and Chuo-dori.

When you enter, there are a lot of explanatory materials by prefecture, but it seems that it is not tourist information.

According to the person in charge, it was said that it was created in March of this year in a place that supports immigration and exchange to rural areas.

On the floor, there is a “consultation corner” that responds to consultations and inquiries about immigration and exchange to rural areas, and a “local document viewing corner, event / seminar” where you can see pamphlets on immigration and exchange created by each local government. There is an "Information Search Corner" where you can search for information on immigration and exchange to rural areas on a personal computer using the information site "National Immigration Navi".

In the "Event Seminar Space", migration consultations and seminars were held by local governments, and on the day I visited, a consultation was held by Uchiko-cho, Ehime Prefecture.

The location of the Immigration and Exchange Information Garden is on the first floor of Echizenya Building, 1-1-6 Kyobashi, Chuo-ku.

Opening hours are from 11:00 to 19:00 on weekdays and from 10:00 to 18:00 on weekends and holidays.

The museum is closed on Monday.

350th Anniversary Commemorative Event of Kyobashi Daikon River Bank-Scenery of Free Radish Distribution Society in September-

[Kra-san] September 13, 2015 18:00

In Kanbun 4 (1664), a vegetable sales floor was set up on the Kyobashi River, which has good water transportation. After that, until the market was moved to Tsukiji in 1935, it prospered as a green market that supports the kitchen of the common people of Edo, which handles fruits and vegetables widely, called "Kyobashi Daikon Riverside". Just under the elevated capital between Ginza and Kyobashi, there is a stone monument at the site of the Kyobashi Daikon Riverside Vegetable Market. Nearby are historical sites such as the birthplace of Edo Kabuki.

In 2014, the birth of "Kyobashi Daikon Riverbank" celebrated the 350th anniversary. The Kyobashi Daikon River Bank celebrates the 350th anniversary, and for two years from June 2012, the radish will be distributed free of charge to 350 people once a month until 2016 when Tsukiji Market moves to Toyosu. This month, a free radish distribution party was held at Kyobashi Daikon Riverside Park from noon on September 11 (Fri).

In addition to radish from Mount Yotei, Hokkaido, we distributed cabbage from Gunma Prefecture, pears from Fukushima Prefecture, and sudachi from Tokushima Prefecture.

All the vegetables distributed are very popular because they are excellent in freshness sent directly to the market selected by Tsukiji professionals. This free distribution event starts at noon on the second Friday of every month. Long lines can be made every month, so if you want it, it seems important to visit early.
