Ukiyo-e (Part 1) that decorates the shutters of the Nihonbashi store

[Yurikamome] April 5, 2011 08:30

 When you take a walk in the Nihonbashi area early in the morning, ukiyo-e is drawn on the shutters and walls of the store.

I put it in the camera.

Spring is coming.

Edobashi stuffed on Showa-dori. There is a small park near the Nihonbashi Post Office.

One of the highlights is the 4 to 5 sunshine cherry trees in full bloom.  The color of the flowers is darker than Yoshino cherry tree.

It blooms at the end. (Amagiyoshino and Kanhizakura are crossed.)

In addition to the sunshine cherry blossoms, bokeh, kinkan, sinking flower, Shikonno peony, hydrangea, etc. are small, but the number is small.

Various kinds of flowers are planted.

Along the Showa-dori, a large cherry tree protrudes branches. Now the buds are still hard, but they are in full bloom.

Occasionally, this is also a spot for cherry blossom viewing.

There's Nihonbashi Post Office right next to you.

Next to the station is a potted "Postcard Tree Taraha". Modern postcards (postcards)

It is also said to have become the origin of the word.  The leaves are thick and shiny like camellia leaves.

The back of this leaf is scratched, the part becomes black, and you can use it to write letters.

 In addition, it is lined with the statue of Takashi Maejima, one of the founders of the modern postal system in Japan.

It seems that you can always see the statue of Maejima Mitsuru and the postcard Kitaraha.

RIMG2934S.JPGRIMG2914CRRS.JPG  Ishikawajima Park along the Sumida River and Harumi Canal from Chuo-ohashi Bridge to Aioi Bridge.

In April 2006, the land behind the revetment of Tsukuda 3-chome was maintained in front of the Aioi Bridge Minami complex `` Aioi no Sato '', and in April 2007 it was connected to the terrace of the upstream park and expanded. Was.

"Hana Momo <Genpei Momo>" planted in the square in front of "Aioi no Sato" blooms.

It is said that red and white (in addition, light red and middle squeezing) flowers are bloomed in a deciduous shrub of the rose family that has been improved for ornamental use, compared to the flag color of Genji and Taira.

Depending on the climate and year, red, light red, white, and spot patterns are not constant, and they do not necessarily bloom every year, and there are irregularities and uncertainties. Please enjoy the gorgeous flower figure of double with mystery.
