Rose at Kaedegawa Shintomibashi Park

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] May 19, 2017 14:00

If you walk along a street that you don't usually walk, you will find new discoveries.

Moreover, this time, the best timing

The roses of Momijigawa Shintomi Bridge Park beside Shintomi Bridge, which was built over the Tokyo Metropolitan Expressway, are in full bloom.

It's very close to Kyobashi Plaza.

This park is much smaller than the Tsukiji River Shukubashi Park, which I introduced on a blog the other day, and the number of roses is small, but red, pink, yellow and orange roses are in full bloom.

I thought there were more large wheels than Shukubashi Park.

Perhaps because I went to the lunch break, this park was completely functioning as an adult smoking space rather than for children.

For a blissful time, everyone was smoking under the Fuji shelf in the park

I missed the flowering season of this wisteria.

Pity

The best time to see purple orchids is purple in early summer.

R0038337RS'G.jpg At the Hanaki Garden in the Hamarikyu Garden, silane (Shiran) is at its best.

The clusters create a stunning landscape.

Shiran is perennial plant of the family Orchidaceae.

One of the reasons for the orchid family is strong and easy to grow.

In early spring, leaf stems like sasa are stretched from the fake stalks connected underground, and around May, a splendid red-purple flower at the tip closes downward and blooms in a few flowers.

Because it is easy to increase from seeds, breeders seem to be making new kinds of flowers. 

"White flower purple orchids" with white flowers, "lipstick purple orchids" with lipstick applied to the tip of the lips, "Three Butterfly blooming" with petals turned lip petals, and "turning purple orchids" with spots are produced.

The underground part is a crude drug, called "white and root", and is said to have a medicinal effect of hemostasis and inflammation.

There are several "bridges" between the Ginza area and the Tsukiji area.

The celebration bridge was originally a bridge that spanned the Tsukiji River, and the Tsukiji River was reclaimed, and now the Metropolitan Expressway Toshin Beltway passes through it.

Tsukiji River Shukubashi Park is a park built adjacent to this celebration bridge, and under the park is an expressway.

In this park, cherry blossoms in spring and roses of this season are very beautiful.

roseiwai04.JPG

Among the parks built adjacent to the bridge in Chuo-ku, this park has many roses planted and is now beginning to bloom.

roseiwai05.JPG

The names of the varieties planted are Angela, Woy Tomei Dyland, Red Maid Land, Scarlet Maid Land, Swany, Brugund '81, Urmermunster, John F Kennedy, etc.

This park was a place for relaxation for salaried workers in the morning and noon, and even on the weekday morning of the photography day, several salaried workers seemed to be on the way to work took a break in the smoking space.

You can enjoy roses until early next month.

Apply for a half-wearing rental of the Neighborhood Association.

I was getting a little festive feeling.

If you do so, you can see the state of the city becoming "festival specifications".

Sunday, May 7 A week before Kanda festival.

DSC_1097-1.jpg

On the street is a yellow flag with the word "Honsai Kanda festival."

DSC_1098-1.jpg

The banner of "Kanda Myojin Festival" is also at Ohiro Shrine in the town.

DSC_1096-1.jpg

I feel that the names of the donors have also increased.


May 9 (Tuesday). If you were walking around Ningyocho for errands.

DSC_1100-1.jpg

・・'All the World Flag!

But that's also a lively atmosphere.


And finally, May 12th (Fri).

The next day is the day when the festival procession "Shinko Festival" is also held.

Hamacho Park, which always brings her daughter Azuki.

It is decorated by the neighborhood association next door.

And...

DSC_1111-1.jpg

I've borrowed my daughter Azuki's half-wearing and obi!

The size (including 90 cm) is also supposed to be written at the time of application.

The size is also perfect.

And they were distributed to all the children

A guard tag lowered from your neck.

It's a bit nice to have this.

This is the perfect preparation for the next day! That's right.


That's right. Speaking of preparation.

This is the most useful thing to enjoy the first Kanda festival.

This is the free paper "Nihonbashi Goyomi".

IMG_2694-1.jpg

The May issue is a special feature of Kanda festival.

Explanation of terms and descriptions that can be understood by people for the first time.

The state of the previous festival

And the route of the festival procession

A map with the approximate scheduled passage time was also posted.

It was very easy to see and understand!

If you have this, how long and where to go?

It's easy to set up a schedule.

As a matter of fact, my husband grew up in an area that has nothing to do with festivals.

I couldn't imagine the festival at all.

So, in this special feature, "It's such a great thing!"

I was surprised at the scale and glamorousness.

"Nihonbashi Goyomi" has many interesting articles every month other than Kanda festival.

 It's a good reading.

 And the publisher "Machi Nihonbashi" site is also recommended with plenty of information.
