Sky Tree from Kachidokibashi

[illy-ship Sun Ichiro] February 27, 2011 08:47

 

The back of the Tokyo Sky Tree grew, and it became visible from Kachidokibashi through the Shinkawa building.

(The middle of the photo is the left side of Chuo-ohashi Bridge. I'm sorry that it's hard to see.

Now you can see it from all six bridges of the Sumida River over Chuo-ku.

If you turn around, you can see Tokyo Tower well.

Tokyo Marathon Course Walking Ginza Tsukishima Monja Festival

[Silver] February 26, 2011 08:30

 This week, we enjoyed walking around Tsukiji from Ginza 4-chome and Tsukuda and Tsukishima from Akashicho.

At Akatsuki Park, there were two Japanese white-eye birds in white plums and the nectar of flowers.

In the monument of Siebold, I studied Mr. Siebold's merit and sin.

 I entered Tsukishima via Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine in Tsukuda and Kobashi Tsukuda. What would you like to have for lunch?

Everybody hurried to the monja shop you wanted. 

One group is looking at the menu in front of the Western restaurant "Piasora" next to Tsukishima Onsen.

 I took photos of the group members who entered the store. The inside of the store is fashionable and neat.

Power Spot in Hamarikyu Garden

[Yurikamome] February 25, 2011 09:15

Recently visiting Hamarikyu, "Where is your power spot? ・・・・」

You say you're right.

Hamarikyu's first power spot was "Kannondo and the Bell Tower Ruins".

At present, only the stairs are left, but ...

At the time of the 11th Shogun Ienari, "Kannondo where the late bell echoes" ...

The principal was said to have been made by Enjin Jikaku Daishi, and Ema, painted by a Kano school painter, was also displayed.

On the right hand from Hakkeizan, look at the `` Tang maple '' imported from Tang during the time of Yatsushiro Shogun Yoshimune, look at the pond with tide on the left and go a little further without crossing Nakashima Bridge. You.

But on the recent website, in the Hamarikyu Garden ...

The "300-year-old pine" and "the scenery seen from Kuchiyama of Shinhi", which were planted when the sixth Shogun Ienori renovated the garden, are also power spots for work luck.

In addition, "Hamarikyu Whole" has been raised as a power spot for work luck.

Power spot ... ? ? ? etc. Regardless, enjoy the natural scenery of the garden 5.5 times as much as Tokyo Dome.

Flowers from March to early May

Ume canola flower Yoshino cherry tree Satozakura (Gyoikou, etc.) 

Kanto dandelion Murasakikeman Fuji Hakuunboku Giboushi button ...

News from Hamarikyu Garden Hanana Red and White plum Hoshihajiro

[Yurikamome] February 25, 2011 08:30

 Like last year, the canola flower field is dyed in beautiful yellow and shines in the sun.

And a good scent seems to be inviting birds.

It blooms one after another from the end of March to the beginning of April.

The cactus-like plant on the right side of the canola flower field is Ryuzetsuran.

It is produced in Mexico and blooms once every 60 to 70 years.

Flowers bloomed about 3 years ago in Hamarikyu.

In foreign countries, it is called Century Flower. 

When it blooms, a number of large yellow flowers bloom at a time.

I make a liquor named Tekira from the roots.     2011_0223 canola flower and Ryuzuran Photo 0010.JPG

    

      It blooms two colors of white and red from a single tree.

      2011_0223 Red and White Plum Photo 0024.JPG     There are many trees in full bloom in Umezono, but there are still trees with hard buds.

     I'm looking forward to seeing you there.

If you look closely, it is a familiar hoshihajiro that is often found in a pond with tide.

When I was in the pond, it looked small, but when it was low tide and stood at the shore, it looked unexpectedly large.
