 I walked a lot in search of the ukiyo-e picture drawn on the shutters of the Nihonbashi district.

Walking along a road that you didn't know about, watching beautifully blooming flowers ... finding a small park ... I had a good time.

I would like to end with this "Part 4", but only the tofu shop "Futaba" was unable to take pictures because Japanese shop curtain was on the picture at any time.

Today is an ukiyo-e that I couldn't see even if I visited the Kyobashi area.

         　　The upper left of the picture above is taken in detail.

When I talked to the person who was cleaning the shutter that had been up once in the table of "Hotel Kazusaya", he dropped the shutter again.　

Thank you ... thank you ...

 

The creator, Akiko Fukunaga, was a young person and worked hard in front of the shutter.

I was impressed that it was a wonderful thing, and her feelings were conveyed.

I think that many young people besides Akiko Fukunaga were involved in the production of shutters in Chuo-ku.

I strongly felt the support of young people who protect the history and culture of Edo.

At the southern end of Hamacho Park, a common facility called "Hamacho Memorial" has been newly built.

You can see the back of the building from the edge of the children's square.

When you approach, there is a sign at the entrance.

The window where the left west sun hits directly is greened on the wall.

When you enter, brochure and explanation panel of person in charge of Chuo-ku engineering works department park green tract of land section tree planting promotion are displayed.

　9.5% of Tsukishima and Tsukuda districts.

　The low city area is in the 3% range.

 

From now on, we are especially grateful for greenery.

Let's look at the flowers and look at the walls of the building.

 

 

 

It was a season when I miss water.

Various ships come and go on the Sumida River.

Water buses, houseboats, motorboats, work boats, etc.

It's a good idea to see the water surface shining brightly and vaguely look at these.

 

 

The front entrance of Nihonbashi Takashimaya is decorated with Sendai's Tanabata decorations "Flow streamers".

This is genuine and borrowed from Sendai.

It will be displayed at the front entrance of Takashimaya until July 7, but will be returned to Sendai and displayed at Tanabata festival in Sendai from Saturday, August 6 to 8 (Mon).

　　　　　　　　　　　The Sendai Seven Evening Festival began in the days of Sendai feudal lord and Masamune Date.　

With the Meiji Restoration, "Tanabata festival" declined nationwide due to changes, the adoption of new calendars, and the recession after World War I, but in 1927, volunteers from merchants gathered and revived the Tanabata decorations.

The Sendai Seven Evening Festival is supported by the tradition of 400 years.

The seven venerable decorations, such as "Flow stream", "Orizuru", "Striple", "Disposal Net", "Paper Cloth", "Paper Cloth", have long been filled with wishes.

"Flowing sink" symbolizes Orihime's weaving thread and aims to improve weaving and handicrafts.

A gorgeous ball is displayed at the top. 

 It can be seen in various places in the "Rose-chan Doll" store, which is the mascot of Takashimaya, but on the left side from the customer's point of view, always has the "Hinomaru flag" and the right side calls on "reflection of the times" as a topic I am.
