On weekends, I participated in a mystery solving event of the Chuo-ku Tourism and Commerce Festival and worked hard to search for treasure chests!
On the weekend, there is another schedule, so it is about 2 hours in the evening when traveling around Chuo-ku while using the Edo bus.
I got a hint at Tsukishima and decided to walk around Tsukiji.
The sun had fallen, and when I walked without thinking about the sidewalk of the road where lighted cars came and went, I suddenly saw Kachidokibashi. When you get close, you're wearing green and blue costumes, and it's not so beautiful!
It was my first time to see Kachidokibashi at night, so I watched it carefully by the bridge.
Then a stall boat passes through the Sumida River. Sumida River and food stalls! I think it's a beautiful sight.
I wanted to put it on a camera (although it's a smartphone). Kasha.
If you look at the photos taken, you can see Tokyo Tower beyond the houseboat! Also, if you look closely, you can see the lights in the Tsukiji Market in the foreground.
I thought it was a wonderful spot where you can see Tokyo's specialties at once.
Next, I took a picture of Kachidokibashi with beautiful colored lights, and suddenly looked at Tsukuda.
・・You can see the Tokyo Sky Tree!
From Kachidokibashi, the Sky Tree is a bit far away, so there is a limit to how you shoot with a smartphone camera, but it would be perfect with a normal camera! (In particular, this photo was taken over the road ...)
Also, the collaboration of Tokyo Sky Tree with Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge is beautiful! (Impressions with the naked eye)
At Kachidokibashi, it was the night when I took many pictures and found several things.

We provide seasonal topics while visiting temples and shrines in the city, and we write articles in a good manner with poor ginseng. This is the second time.
Takenawa Aki. The town of Ginza, sung by "Enjoy City, the City of Love ♪" and "Tokyo Rhapsody", now has a very sorrowful color and has an atmosphere like an "adult town".
There is a famous "Ginza Hatcho Shrine Tour" in Ginza. This course, which is enshrined here and there in the town of Ginza, visits Shinto and Buddha, is a recommended promenade where you can also enjoy a strict feeling as a silver bra. It is also introduced on the homepage of the Chuo-ku Tourism Association, so please take a look. Visit Ginza Hatcho Shrine
One day I walked on this course near the evening. Each spot is unique and attractive, but this time I would like to introduce [Ryuko fudoson] from among them. As you know, the statue of Acalanatha is located on the premises of the Matsuya Ginza store and has been handed down since the Kamakura period.
 Acalanatha is said to be the incarnation of Dainichi Nyorai, the center of Esoteric Buddhism, and is a god of resentment derived from India, the birthplace of Buddhism. In addition, this Buddha has been told that it has benefited from "Ryuko" (favortex) due to the reading of its name, and it is said that the number of visitors to fashion-related people has increased. It's a story that makes sense in the town of Ginza. [Photo 1: Ryuko fudoson]
Next, I would like to introduce [Successful guardian of children and travelers] on the Mitsukoshi Ginza store, which is the same line as Matsuya.
 It was dug out in the early Meiji era from now being reclaimed [Sankuma Horikawa], and the name of "Successfulness" was dedicated to "Successfulness". It is believed that "If you do your best, you will always be able to communicate" and attract many religions. Jizo Bodhisattva is a Chinese translation of Sanskrit, which means "Buddha in the womb," and is said to save people as wrapping them in the womb. The image of everyday life is "Children's guardian angel". [Photo 2: Success guardian of children and travelers]
Of course, there is also [Kagoya Inari Shrine] on the same department store Matsuzakaya. The Hatcho Shrine also includes seven Inari-sama companies. In the old days, "Edo specialty." Iseya, Inari had a somewhat dirty word of dog droppings.
As I learned from rakugo, it is exactly "Samurai, Bonito, Daimyokoji, Hirokoji, teahouse, purple, fire extinguishing, Nishiki-e." I'm in the middle of a fight with fire. Iseya, dog droppings in Inari. " I think it clearly expresses the hustle and bustle of Edo at that time. There was a company in the town here and there that contains Inari. By the way, it is said that the inclusion of "dog droppings" is a ridiculous for the "law of mercifulness".
In the Ginza area, the annual "Autumn Ginza 2012" will be held from 27th of this month to November 4th. As part of the event, "Good luck stamp rally" of "Ginza Hatcho Tour" will also be accepted from November 1 to 4. Why don't you go out in this refreshing season?

Now, as I walked in such a way, the dusk was approaching one day. Ginza Street is going to end.
In the past, there used to be a popular song called "Ginza of Tasore", but is Ginza a city that suits you at night?
When the passers-by to Twilight suddenly begins to show calm, I think that such urban scenery is also delicious.

The 27th of this weekend, when "Autumn Ginza 2012" begins, is "Thirteen Nights" (September 13, old calendar).
 Since ancient times, Japanese have enjoyed watching the moon at this night, apart from the 15th night of August old calendar. It seems that "Thirteen Nights" is a custom unique to Japan that is not found in China. Isn't it a wind style to taste the moon just before the full moon as a "name moon"? It is probably the sensibility of the Japanese who have valued subtle "beauty".
"Autumn sun drops a fishing bottle" ... Please try "Gin Bra" while enjoying the change from sunset to night view. You will be able to meet the wonderful scenery.

"Is it the scent of the rhinocerous?"
In the second half of October, the weather was autumnal and weather.
The osmanthus at Tsukiji River Park is usually inconspicuous, but now there are few flowers around it and few flowers that emit fragrance, so its existence is particularly noticeable and the feet of passing people stop .
It's a clear day for a walk in autumn. By all means, why don't you go out and enjoy the coming autumn?
