Nakacho Konishi Gallery is not possible for more than 20 people to enter the store at once, so it is divided into two groups, one group is Nakacho Konishi and the other group is nearby Suzuki Art Gallery (exhibition of works by famous artists such as Shiko Munakata). I decided to go.

"Harumi Wharf" in Harumi, Chuo-ku

[Mr.Chuo-ku] May 30, 2012 08:30

Did you know that luxury cruise ships and ships from Japan and abroad are berthed at Harumi Wharf in Harumi, Chuo-ku? It is said that this "Harumi Wharf" is used when an overseas sailing ship pays a courtesy call to Japan, or when the Antarctic observation ship "Shirase" departs or returns to the port.


When I went for a walk at Harumi Wharf on May 20, a luxury cruise ship was parked.
According to the seafarer, this ship leaves Kobe Port, goes around Japan around the left, stops at ports at key points, and as a major event, the `` Annular solar eclipse '' on May 21 It was to see from off the Pacific Ocean.

Here at Harumi Wharf, besides watching these when luxury cruise ships and ships are anchored, you can also go cameraup to the Harumi Passenger Terminal Observation Deck or have a barbecuebeer at Harumi Wharf Park. In addition, events such as the Tokyo Bay Fireworks Festival will be held at the Tokyo Minato matsuri and Harumi Wharf Park off the coast of Harumi Wharf.

Hachikan Shrine

[Silver] May 24, 2012 08:30

 It is said that Hachikan Shrine has a high probability of winning lottery if you visit and pray. (I can't guarantee true or false) I've been searching many times before and finally found it.

As shown in the photo, the location is enshrined between Ginza Nikko Hotel, "Ginza Felice" and "Sushi restaurant Ukai". It's about 15m from Gallery Shingendo near Shimbashi.

According to the Kyobashi Library's holding materials and the first issue of the public relations magazine "Ginza Hachikan" (published on January 1, 1978), the history of the event was published.

"At the beginning of Genroku, Inari welcomed the divine spirit of Ogami, who was enshrined at Matsu Hirasabei's residence in castle owner, Banshu Akashi Castle, to the present 8-chome. Since then, we have continued to walk along with the history of Ginza." If you are interested, please check the details at Kyobashi Library. Let's take a look around the history of Ginza while expectheart04ing lottery winning.run

 

 

Henri Charpentier Ginza

[Silver] May 23, 2012 08:30

Henri Charpantiere is located in Yonaiville, Ginza 2-chome.

I've always wanted to go there for a long time. I remember seeing the painting with the shutters in the early morning closed somewhere, but I can't remember it. When I asked the gallery people I met recently, the author was unhappy, but he said he would be a painter of the Fon Taine Broo. The original work is a work called "Gabriel Destre and his sister". Sisters are in the bathtub and playing, the woman behind is an attendant, sewing celebration items, or fixing the stockings that were once expensive?

It was a bad rain on this day. At the reception, he kept a wet umbrella and received a plastic tag for a deposit certificate. shine I was impressed by what kind of service.

Well, I went inside and had a delicious coffee and dessert. It's a good taste.

The decoration inside the store was wonderful, but there was also a large bookcase. Well, Itoilet wanted to go to a natural phenomenon. Where's the toilet? When I was in trouble, a female clerk pushed me the bookshelf. Also, I was surprised at the gimmick.

Responding; The name of the store is that one patiche accidentally put orange liqueur on dessert while producing dessert, it became a flame (flambe') and became rich in sweetness, and as a result it was delicious, so it became famous It seems to be bearing the name of the person.
 I didn't know the name of the patiche, but I had eaten the dessert on the French island of San Martan in the Caribbean. In addition, I'm looking forward to it.happy01

Are you in full bloom? Rose at Tsukiji River Shukubashi Park

[TAKK...] May 20, 2012 23:54

iwaihasi1.jpg There are several parks directly above the former Tsukiji River (now the Metropolitan Expressway).

 This time, I went to "Tsukiji River Shukubashi Park" where you can enjoy beautiful rose flowers.

 The current congratulatory bridge was bridged in 1962, and in 1992, Chuo-ku has been renovating the main pillars and balustrades to be bricked, which also serves as a landscape maintenance.

 If you go to Ginza from this bridge, you will find Matsuya Ginza, and if you head toward Tsukiji, you will find Tsukiji Honganji.

 In the park, 150 roses of 8 types are planted, and it seems to be in full bloom.

 I can't deny that it's a little unsatisfactory to visit this park itself, but I think you can really relax if you stop by strolling around Ginza and Tsukiji, commuting, or returning home.

 Also, if you live nearby, it would be very good as a walking course.

 It was a peaceful park where butterflies danced.
