Green curtains gentle to the eyes

[ukiuki] July 31, 2011 08:30

This year, green curtains have both power saving and healing effects.

You seem to be very active.

 

Even here in Chuo-ku, if you are taking a walk

It's really a lot, whether it's a condominium or a house.

At one house in the Tsukishima area, green curtains are available from the first floor to the fourth floor.

It was like a curtain on the theater.

 

Some of the typical green curtains are bitter gourd, cucumber, and so on.

Hechima, clematis, morning glory, etc.

Kiwi also seems to be popular these days.

At Akashi Elementary School, there are bitter gourd and morning glory flowers.

It covers the wall under construction and softens your eyes.

This is a tower apartment in Kachidoki, between apartment Menz Kachidoki and police box.

It's chic and fashionable.

 

Chuo-ku is located in the city center, but when you enter the back street, you can see it.

Isn't it a good place to be able to meet greenery and flowers?

Large foreign ships and Japanese ships that dive down the Rainbow Bridge to reach Harumi Wharf ...

You can also enjoy the ferry arriving at Takeshiba Wharf, Hinode Wharf, Shibaura Wharf, and various ships coming from far away Japan.

The radiance of the rising sun and the beauty of the sunset are impressive.

On the left side of the Rainbow Bridge is the Shinagawa container yard.

I think that the reflection of glass is that the surface of the sea glows white, but when the sun begins to rise, it spreads to the vicinity of Toyomi's warehouse and disappears as the sun rises.

"Sunset" in summer is said to be the most beautiful of the year and is also the "Summer Seasonal" in Haiku.

On the day when the wind blows strongly, the color change of the sky after the sun sinks is exceptional.

I feel tired while drinking beer and reflect on the day.

Lavender field in Chuo-ku

[illy-ship Sun Ichiro] July 1, 2011 12:00

I found a lavender field in Chuo-ku.

At Sotobori-dori St. near Tokyo Station, the middle of the west sidewalk is the ward of Chiyoda-ku and Chuo-ku.

There is a cute lavender field on the sidewalk in front of the Grand Tokyo South Tower.

It's the height of the flowers.
