Time Dome Akashi (Chuo Ward Local Tenmonkan)

[Many Books Osa] July 31, 2010 07:31

I went to Time Dome Akashi (Chuo Ward Local Tenmonkan) in Akashicho, right opposite St. Luke's Hospital, on cloudy sky between Mainichi and sometimes rainy Friday.

I often go to St. Luke Hospital, but this is my first time to visit Time Dome. It is located on the 6th floor of a complex such as Chuo-ku Public Health Center. The photo below shows the entrance on the first floor.

When you go up to the 6th floor by elevator, it is already the entrance to Time Dome.

Purchase an admission ticket at a vending machine and enter the exhibition room.

The exhibits consisted of Edo Castle: Admission ticket for the playhouse unearthed from the archeological site-Nihonbashi and the fish shore: From the Edo period to the Great Kanto Earthquake, the model of the fish shore in Nihonbashi was quite well made, and I understood the remnants of those days. A scissors box and a vermilion inner box containing the white fish that a fisherman on Tsukuda Island still presents white fish to the Tokugawa Mune family - Merchant and Craftsmen - the prosperity of Dutch studies and Tsukiji Reservation: I was surprised that many well-known private schools were founded in this settlement. - Prosperity of Ginza - Literature in Chuo-ku: Introduction of literary scholars related to Yukari (Introduction of 10 people including Ryunosuke, Fujimura, Toruya, etc.)-The history of Chuo-ku was interesting in an easy-to-see exhibition with no many exhibits due to the composition of Tsukishima and waterside culture. . Photography is prohibited inside, but it turned out that I often saw the exhibits. After that, at the video corner, "I showed me the phantom World Exposition-Tsukishima No. 4 (Harumi) Expo plan and its background (screening time about 30 minutes) by myself. I heard in the story, but it was an interesting video to understand the story of the World Exposition that was canceled.

It took about 1 hour, but it was a fulfilling tour.

After that, there are famous places and historic sites nearby, and it is a fun place for subsequent walks. Wouldn't it be nice to have a lunch box around here for a day?

Toto Norenkai Nihonbashi Benmatsu Sohonten

[Yurikamome] July 28, 2010 08:30

It is a collection of long-established brands in Tokyo.

 These stores were founded in the Edo period and early Meiji period, and have 53 long-established stores in Tokyo with a history of more than 300 years and over 100 years.

 All right. It was born in the Edo period when it was called a downtown area and was the busiest castle.

 

Nihonbashi Benmatsu Sohonten (1850) Founded in 1850 (1850) Japan's first folded lunch box specialty store

   200 years ago, it was Higuchi-ya, a restaurant started by the first Yoichi on the east bank, where the fish shore was at the time.

   Because men who are busy working on the riverbank often left half of rice and side dishes, Yoichi left the leftover bamboo.                 

   I wrapped it in my skin and gave it.

   This care gained a reputation, and orders to "wrap from the beginning" increased, and food was served at the time of the third generation Matsujiro.                    

   We folded the place and opened a folding lunch specialty store "Benmatsu".

   (The lunch box shop Matsujiro has become "Benmatsu")

       2010_0727 Benmatsu lunch box. JPG 

        998.-     (Red rice ¥1,155.-)  

The above is my recommendation.

At first, I thought that Benmatsu's lunch box was a rich taste, but I came to like Benmatsu's lunch box I bought at Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store. It is a unique and delicious "Edo taste".

Benmatsu Bento's lunch is the reason for getting caught ...

The fact that it is in a wooden box is also a great appetite and I like it.

It excels in sterilizing and permeability of permeable trees.

No additives are used for cooking and preservation, and all the finished products are broken and packed.

What I am most pleased is that President Higuchi is making lunch boxes in the kitchen with his employees.

 

You can buy a lunch box at the Mitsukoshi Main Store Takashimaya Main Store Daimaru (Tokyo Station) and Nihonbashi Ben Matsumoto Store.

In addition to the eight types of lunch boxes, there are also upper lunches, and there are many other types of "folded dishes".

There are also sea bream tail and red rice.

 Lunch lunch boxes are often eaten by customers immediately, so the container is not a kyogi, so the price is low only at the head office and only at lunch time.

We recommend that you try it once.

※ The factory is scheduled to be moved near Eitai Bridge in January next year.

  While you were busy, we spoke with President Higuchi.

"Chuo-ku Tour Trip" Edo Bus (North Loop) Ride Diary

[Koedo Itabashi] July 23, 2010 13:30

In the afternoon after the rainy season, I took the "Edo Bus (Chuo-ku Community Bus)" in the afternoon.

In front of the entrance of Chuo-ku government office, two small buses, south circulation and north circulation, were lined up back and forth.

The bright red body accentuates the cuteness.

Utilizing the advantage of the first departure place, ride a 100 yen coin in a coin box into a car where no customer is yet on board.

The seat we aim for is the left end seat at the back. The last seat is about two steps high in a non-step car, so the outside view is good, the elbows are plump, and there is a modest "value".

 

There are 11 seats. I have 8 straps. The thick grip stick is also arranged for easy grabbing.

 

Almost unconscious north circulation stops at 28 locations such as Tokyo Station, Shin-Nihonbashi Station, Hamacho Station, and Suitengumae Station.

 

"I'm leaving." "I'll turn left."

"Well. What a soft voice driver?'

A gentle voice after confirming the customer's appearance.

If you are concerned about this care, the elderly who use it to go to the hospital are safe.

 

Anyway, since it's a weekday afternoon under the scorching sun, OL, who escaped the heat outside, is on a short sleep, perhaps due to work fatigue.

 

When you pass around Hamacho, you will reflexively delusion that "a woman in kimono should definitely be walking", but a sister who did not meet expectations and was sharp in walking showed up He gave me

 

The most impressive scene for me is Kiyosu Bridge, which can be seen from the middle of the intersection where you turn right. It was just a moment, but the bridge seemed to approach me, and I looked closely.

 

On the way, Tokyo Station, inhabitant of a ward center, hospital, partner company ... For me, the purpose of riding itself, I felt that the Edo bus, which has been established as a means of transportation for customers, was something valuable.

 

With a small car body, you can easily get into a narrow road, the Debu cat mark, no, and the lucky beckoning cat is cute.

There was a gentle image of the anime cat bus.

 

About 65 minutes around. It's almost the same as the time around the JR Yamanote Line.

How about traveling around Chuo-ku?

 

 

 

Tsukishima Beer

[Silver] July 21, 2010 09:00

 Summer performance after the rainy season! I want to moisten my throat in the evening.

"For the time being, beerbeer!" I ordered, but I want to stick to the first one.

Today, I would like to introduce the Tsukishima brand beer. Tsukishima Beer is sold.

It's Surugaya liquor store at 3-14-9 Tsukishima, Chuo-ku. Telephone 03-3531-0915

CIMG5544.jpg

 

 The product name is "Kachidokibashi Label" on the left and "Nishinakadori police box label" on the right.

Each is ¥305 (including tax).

CIMG5547.jpg

 

 I was introduced to a monja shop where you can drink Tsukishima beer. 

This is Miso-no-san, just near Nishinaka-dori.

CIMG5549.jpg

 I received "Nishinaka-dori police box label". It's a fruity taste.

CIMG5553.jpg

 

 It seems that it is also located on "Treasure Island" and "Ebisuya" on Nishinaka-dori. Try it.

I think it is good as a "Tsukishima souvenir" and as a giftpresent. 

 Tonight, have another drink of Kachidokibashi! beer 

 

 

 

Town Walking Tour 2010 Tokyo Stock Exchange Course (July 14)

[Mikazuki] July 18, 2010 17:51

 We did the first course guide of the Tokyo Stock Exchange in the 2010 town walk tour. "The town walking tour is very popular every time because there are many fun courses that are free to participate, and we worked with the people who won several times the magnification.happy01

The course started at 10:00, first watch a video of the Tokyo Stock Exchange for about 20 minutes, then tour the museum with the guidance of the Tokyo Stock Exchange for 30 minutes, and then experience a simulated stock transaction using a personal computer. Finally, I visited the museum. It took about an hour and a half, but I felt it in no time because the contents were so many.

The device where the stock price is rotating often seen on TV is called a ticker, and the more transactions, the faster the speed becomes, and the speed is seven stages. Recently, stock prices have been falling, but on the day of the tour, most brands have risen, and they are spinning at a great speed, so I was almost turning around.coldsweats01

My recommendation is the pseudo trading experience. Start from 10 million (although it is not a real money because it is pseudo), analyze the news that will enter one after another for the two preset brands, and experience how much assets can be increased in 30 minutes by repeatedly buying and selling I can do it. The stock price surges and falls due to the time difference in judgment on how the yen's appreciation and interest rates affect stocks, so I was able to instantly decide the timing of buying and selling, and I enjoyed studying quite a bit.smile

As a beginner in stock, I was about 300,000 plus, but when it started to rise, it was the end time, so I think that I could expand further in a few minutes, but the best tour participants was 600,000 plus. It's amazing!

The Tokyo Stock Exchange Course of the "Town Walking Tour" will also be held on October 13 (Wednesday), so if you are interested, please apply.

Even if you missed the lottery, many people were able to see it on the day, but if you make a reservation, you will be able to visit the Tokyo Stock Exchange and simulate it, so please check the website of the Tokyo Stock Exchange by all means.

The third row of the ticker is positive for red and negative for yellow. Most of the day was bright red.

You can lend one personal computer to each person and experience a pseudo transaction for 30 minutes.

At the shop at the entrance, I purchased 250 yen for 4 convenient clips that could be stopped at the corner.

Takashimaya Starlight Beer Garden

[Mido] July 18, 2010 10:26

 Japan was recognized as a national important cultural property for the first time as a department store building in June last year.
 The night spot "Starlight Beer Garden" on the roof of Hashi Takashimaya.
 It was born.
 The concept of this beer garden is based on the image of Irish pub.
 With a stylish atmosphere, women can easily enter.
 At the rooftop park with a fountain, you can enjoy a jokki while watching modern Japanese-Western eclectic architecture.
 It's smart to tilt.
 Business hours are from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm, with 80 seats and about 40 kinds of drinks.
 There are about 30 kinds of meals.
 Because the place is an important cultural property, I thought it would be expensive, so I could drink 2 hours.
 A set of 3,300 yen is surprisingly reasonable (*^-^) Nico
 Also, as the ultimate original drink, the vinegar specialty store "Oaks Heart" is the ultimate original drink.
 Then, "Nihonbashi Rose Cooler" using dessert vinegar with rose scent.
 ー(500 yen) and Nihonbashi Rose Soder (300 yen) are also available here.
 It's a gem that you can't drink.
 Why don't you stop by on your way home from work?
 By the way, it's a beer garden, so it's open until September 6!

  ▼ Starlight beer garden
