Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

The sky tree is now popular and it is crowded with many tourists.

Here in Chuo-ku, there is also a place where you can see the Sky Tree beautifully.

This time, let's introduce a little bit of the Sky Tree seen from the Sumida River.

The photo at the top is from the Paris Park on Tsukuda Island.

The right of the bridge in the photo is the Sumida River from Aioi Bridge to Nakanoshima Park.

The left is the Sumida River toward Kachidokibashi.　

The bridge in the distant view is Eitai Bridge.

The second photo shows the upstream sidewalk of Chuo-ohashi Bridge.

The "Messenger" statue of Zackin is in the foreground.

　The third is a photo from Route 475, walking upstream from Hatsumi Bridge on the Tokyo Marathon Course.

If you look at the Tsukuda Sluice Gate from the bridge, it looks like the Sky Tree will pick it up. The Tsukuda Suimon is located on the Asashio Canal.

　Here is a photo from Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge

Unlike the upstream sidewalk, which is usually difficult to pass by bicycle, from the upstream sidewalk, and from the downstream sidewalk, the Sky Tree looks beautiful as if picked up. When the ship comes to this point, it is getting a little faster.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

 

　The plums are beginning to bloom, and spring is coming soon.　

I think it would be interesting to look for the sky tree while crossing the bridge leisurely and looking at the river.

　

 

 

 

 

　There are a lot of ways to enjoy the Tokyo Marathon.　

Runners are happy because the air is clear and you can run through the beautiful city of Tokyo without traffic restrictions.　
For those who enjoy walking, you can enjoy world-class fashion and international cuisine in Ginza, the center of Japan, and Nihonbashi. You can also visit shrines and temples such as Tsukiji Honganji Temple and Suitengu Shrine to experience the history of Japan. 

The supporters support acquaintances, support famous players, and support runners who are working hard without discrimination.　It's also a show of art.

　And for spectators, both runners and cheering scenes are very fun.　You can visit the cheering scenery, enjoy local specialties at Tokyo's unique international gastronomy and Tsukishima at the restaurant you are looking for, at Cafe and other places.　　The following UR introduces such support events.
See this UR, visit support events, eat delicious food, and enjoy the Tokyo Marathon. http://www.tokyo42195festa.com/street_event/index.html 

 At the cafe along the roadside, we recommend the 2nd floor of "Mihara Domoto Store" facing the Suitengu intersection (click here for HP) http://www.miharado-honten.co.jp/ and Yamamotoyama in Nihonbashi It is a cafe.

 

 

Chuo-ku has long been developed as the center of culture and performing arts. It is also a rich town with the stylish atmosphere of the city and the spirit of cherishing tradition.

There are therefore various hobby and special skills enthusiasts in this town, and a variety of activities are being developed here and there.

 

The season of once-a-year presentation of circles registered as groups at the Social Education Center in Chuo-ku has come. Every year at this time, three "Social Education Centers" are held with recruiting members from their affiliated circles.

At the forefront, for the two days of Saturday, February 9 and 10 (Sun), a presentation of members belonging to [Tsukishima Social Education Center] was held in the hall on the 4th floor of the hall. I have seen the situation.

 

When we arrive at the venue, the audience seats are almost full. The family and friends of each circle member came to support me, and there were also local residents who really liked performing arts and came to enjoy it.

 

The program is the culmination of practice that each circle works on a daily basis. "Karaoke", "Tai Chi", "Dance", "Hula (Hawaiian Dance)" will continue, so you will not get tired of it. The sincere attitude of the performers will be conveyed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the lobby, the members of the circle after the appearance praised each other for their enthusiasm, the difficulties of training, and the atmosphere was full of a relaxed atmosphere. I thought it was meaningful to further deepen exchanges between inhabitants of a ward through the presentation of such culture and performing arts.

Above all, you can even enviable the sense of fulfillment after completing your best performance and the sense of solidarity between your friends.

 

After this, "Circle Presentation" will be held from February 16 (Sat) to 17 (Sun), members of "Nihonbashi Social Education Center" and members of "Tsukiji Social Education Center" on 23 (Sat), Each presentation is scheduled. It is also introduced on the homepage of Chuo-ku. Admission is free, so why not take a look at it?

"Chuo-ku Circle Presentation"

 

It was a day when I rediscovered the spirit and enthusiasm of everyone in this town. I wish you all the best and best for you.

 

 

 The exhibition at Sony Plaza Ginza will always entertain the viewer. In the summer, the fish at the Churaumi Aquarium, and today we are transmitting dreams and culture to us, like Flower Valentine 2013. I admire it as a very respectable social contribution activity.

Today, I came to get a Sony Plaza member Sony Card.　When I went up to the 4th floor and issued the card, in addition to explaining how to operate the card reader, he immediately added the card points to the store. Here on the 4th floor, we also hold briefings on new products, so it is a must-see place.　When I got down to the 2nd floor and explained the new product, he was kind and polite.　Right now, Ginzo is planning to buy a new product with radio. This new product has a recording reservation function, and recording can be done on SD, so it is very convenient.

In retrospect, I brought SONY radio from my first overseas assignment in 1976 to Brazil in 1995 and St Martin Island in the Caribbean Sea in 1997.　One of the reasons for Ginzo is that the gift for those who are overseas assignments is radio who can listen to NHK Japanese broadcasting.

　　I'm reminded to create a new laughing play and create a comedy. Time is 1904

　　In February, the place was Naniwaza in Dotonbori.

 

 

 

If you go up the stairs at Tsukiji Market Station on the Oedo Subway Line, you will see the Asahi Shimbun right in front of you.
There is a security guard at the entrance, and it is an atmosphere where unrelated people cannot enter, but in fact, this building is also a path to the Hamarikyu Asahi Hall, where concerts are often held. The concourse on the second floor to get to the hall contains facilities that can be used by the general public, such as restaurants and cafes.

The bookstore in it is BookCumu (BookCumu).

　　

According to Mr. Watanabe, the store manager, most of the visitors are still related to the Asahi Shimbun, so the first thing that comes to notice is books on political, economic and current affairs.
Although it is a small shop with less than 20 tsubo, there are many humanities science books such as Iwanami Shoten, Misuzu Shobo, Fujiwara Shoten, which are only super-large bookstores such as Yaesu Book Center.
Furthermore, in Bunko and Shinsho, in the Ginza area after Kondo Shoten and Asahiya Shoten disappeared, in addition to Iwanami Bunko and Shinsho, which are only found in Kyobunkan, Tsunogawa Sophia Bunko, which contains many Japanese classical literature, Kodansha Gakugei Bunko, and Chikuma Gakugei Bunko, are piled up in books that stimulate intellectual curiosity.

Above all, in the "Media Journalism" section, books on all media other than newspapers, such as magazines, television, and internet, from basic journalism theory to the latest developments in the IT era, are lined up. It feels like a bookstore in a newspaper company.
This is a corner created with the advice of a reporter once saying, "Because it is a bookstore in a newspaper company, even if it is narrow, if it is a corner for media and journalism."
The reporter died early, so it seems that it is also the so-called memorial corner.

In addition, of course, there are new books and magazines published by Asahi Shimbun Publishing, and back issues such as Weekly Asahi and Aera are in stock until about a month ago.
(Because it happens to be out of stock or out of stock, be sure to check the stock by phone before visiting the store.)

The business is from 10:00 to 18:00 from Monday to Friday, so it may be difficult for those who work in the daytime, but it is a few "bookstores where shelves talk about" that can only be understood by book lovers .
If you have a chance, please come and visit us.
