[Chuo-ku to enjoy with children] #04: A movie theater with a baby (Nihonbashimuro-cho)

[Dye] October 29, 2014 09:00

Before giving birth, a senior daddy mom advised, "If you have a child, it is difficult to watch a movie and eat ramen at a movie theater, so it is good to enjoy it now." I remember that.

But now, even with babies, you can watch movies at movie theaters! !

So, I went to TOHO Cinemas Nihonbashi in COREDO Muromachi 2.

 

s08_01.JPG s08_02.jpg

Choledo Muromachi 1 and 3 are along Chuo-dori, and 2 is just one from the street.

The movie theater is on the 3rd to 6th floors.

 

At TOHO CINEMAS, a screening called "Mama's Club Theater" is held about once or twice a month on Thursday that can be taken with a baby.

Lighting slightly brighter, low volume, and above all, even if the baby crys, it's like each other, and I'm really grateful that you are free to enter and exit and have no hesitation.

 

The screenings vary from theater to theater, but at TOHO Cinemas Nihonbashi in October, they were "Chinekiyori Love" and "Grace of Monaco's trump card".

A while ago, "Ana and the Queen of Snow" was screened, I tried to cunkyun on the mountain P, suddenly thinking about women's way of life, and it has a rich lineup.

 

I have been horrified by the beauty of Nicole Kidman at the trump card of Queen Grace of Monaco.

Speaking of which, Nikor Kidman and Grace Kelly are moms, aren't they?

Although his position is different, he had a lot of sympathy points as the same woman, and while holding my child, I watched it closely.

 

On the other hand, Mr. Chibi finally fell asleep while he was mozzling on his knees, occasionally cascading, and staring at the screen.

And the walking child was crossing the bottom of the screen, and it was very smiling.

This is also unique to Mama's Club Theater (*^^*)

 

I can't take pictures during the movie, so I may not be able to convey the atmosphere very much, but I'll introduce some things.

It is easy to hold because it is on the tension tray that rises in the snack corner.

Let's enter.

 

s08_06.jpg s08_07.jpg

There is a parking lot. There is also a child seat.

The screening ended. It might be convenient to have a baby strap. The staff is also kind.

 

Well, about nursing rooms, etc.

There are diaper changing tables in various places in the bathroom in the movie theater.

s08_09.jpg s08_10.jpg 

There is no nursing room in the movie theater, so use a multi-purpose restroom or a seat (dim during the movie, it was quite vacant when I went and there were only women, so some people seemed to be doing so) I think it will be.

 

If you leave the movie theater space, there is a nursing room on the first basement floor of Choledo.

The diaper changing table is located on each floor.

Occasionally, I don't hesitate to change my mind at the movie theater.

I recommend it.

 On both sides of the sidewalk of Ningyocho-dori, Nihonbashi Ningyocho-dori.

Blessed with fine autumn weather, before 10 o'clock, customers were watching the dolls from boxes in front of their favorite shops. There are 57 stores.

 The owner of a handmade shop

The doll put on hand salt seems to have the feeling of giving his child to his bride.                   

 At a long-established doll shop, Japanese-style dolls are available to customers.

 It makes you feel the tradition of Ningyocho.

There are stuffed animals, sculpture dolls, and

Frogs, Japanese racoon dog, and cats, each doll makes the viewer feel relaxed.

The weather is good on both days. Some of them are dressed in Japanese clothes.

As expected, it is the form of "Nihonbashi Ningyocho".

The doll stalls were filled with colorful costumes of many women only on this day.

 

 

You may see the walking tunabushi in Chuo-ku. (Harumi district 2)

 I'm heading to Harumi Wharf.

 

On the right side, the opposite bank of the Asashio Canal is the Toyomi district.

Tsukishima Wharf (Hokai Wharf).

 

 Shortly after we went to Harumi Park. The stone walls are assembled and the atmosphere of the castle ruins.

As you go along the way, you will see Harumi Passenger Terminal beyond the fountain.

P1010002isigaki-1.jpgP1010003funsui-1.jpg

 Proceed to the sea side, sometimes a large ship anchored on the quay.

Looking at the boat, look to the left and see the Venus sculpture.

P1010007kamome-11.jpgP1010006megami-1.jpg

 On the way to the observation tower, there is a wonderful monument. There is a small bird on the surface of the water.

While looking at it, you will go up to the observation tower. Mount Fuji is beautiful when it's fine.

The Sky Tree and of course Triton Square are up close.

Take the elevator to the ground at once. It's comfortable with the gentle air conditioning.

 

Go outside and head toward Triton, this area is a candidate site for the Olympic athlete village.

From time to time, the Metropolitan Police Department White Bike Corps is practicing seriously.

In the past, sometimes airships flew off from here.

When you go east through the construction site of Ring Route 2 and head to the hotel group, you will get a good scent.

 

 It's the Katsuobushi Center. 

Bonitobushi from famous shops such as Nihonbashi are transported here, dried in the sun at this place and shipped.

When I ask the clerk, "Tunabushi" is in front of me. It looked a little thicker.

Tunabushi is said to be used at a long-established soba shop in Nihonbashi.

 Go up Harumi Ohashi, look at the refreshing sea, and this time to the warehouses, something retro.

DSC_0095-18.jpg


 After leaving the warehouses, go to "Hot Plaza Harumi".


There is a stylish Italian restaurant on the second floor. Take a break here.

After looking at the Rainbow Bridge on the terrace on the second floor, head to Asashio Kobashi.

 

 

Chuo-ku Town Walking Tour ★Visiting Ginza Gallery

[Mapo ★] October 15, 2014 09:00

On October 7th, we went around the town walk tour Ginza Gallery.

There are 10 participants.

Meet in front of the clock tower at Sukiyabashi Park and go around the Yanagi Gallery, Nichido Gallery, and Shinminedo Gallery.

 

At first, Yanagi Gallery.

 

There are a few words from the president who left me very much.

I can't buy art museums, but I can buy art galleries.
Aside from buying or not, what if you buy a picture in this?
If you could get one of them?
It's fun to look at the picture while thinking like that.

 

garo1.jpg RIMG1689x.JPG

 

Among Yanagi Gallery, I like Hiroshi Okano's paintings very much.
The color is beautiful, and there are some things that can be bought.
"Decorating this picture of this size in that place in the living room."
I thought it was very fun, and I really wanted a picture (laughs).

I received a pamphlet (upper right)

 

I was doing a Dali exhibition at the Nichido Gallery.
It seems to be the 110th anniversary of Dali's birth.
It's not a picture, so it's hard to carry artworks.
I was able to hear stories such as the story behind Dali.

They also sell postcards and notepads of famous painters.
I received big postcards from Dali and Monet, where the next event is written.

There is a permanent exhibition in the basement, and there are many pictures hanging.
The painter who thought this person's picture was good checks the name!

 

garo2.jpg RIMG1691x.JPG

 

garo3.jpg RIMG1692x.JPG

 

The last is Shiminedo.
I had plenty of time, so I explained the pictures one by one.

Knowing the background and story of the picture
It's interesting because the attachment is born in the picture and the perspective changes.

 

By the way, Mr. Shiminedo's painting doesn't have a price tag.
When asked why, many people look at the name and price when looking at the picture, and then see the picture.
He seems to have not put a price tag because he wants to see the picture without prejudice of the amount.

 

By the way, I heard the amount of money and said, "I'm going to do that much."
If you think, that picture is your favorite picture.
If you think, "Eh, isn't it so expensive?" (laughs)

 

The gallery in Ginza seems to have a high threshold.
Today, I felt like I could go to the gallery more easily.

It seems that going around the gallery in Ginza will be a habit.

Hario Family Sale

[Flatfuu] October 13, 2014 09:00

There was a family sale at Hario headquarters for two days, October 9 and 10.

I visited you in the morning of the 9th.

 The location is 9-3 Tomizawa-machi, Nihonbashi.

It's close to Ningyocho, Kodemmacho, and Bakuroyokoyama stations.

It's just a little from the big street.

Although it is a family sale, you can enter freely even if you are not a related person.

 The Hario headquarters building is a wonderful building that has also become a registered Tangible Cultural Property, former Kawasaki Savings Bank Tomizawacho Branch.

Unfortunately, the road in front of me was under construction and it was very difficult to take pictures....

hario3.jpg IMG_0323.JPG 

The photo is the side and entrance part.

The interior was very nice, with chic, thick wooden doors and stairs on the walls of the white plaster.

If you don't have such a sale opportunity, you can't easily enter, so it's a great deal.

IMG_0328.JPG

 Well, the sale was a great success in the morning and was quite crowded. In particular, coffee-related equipment seemed to be popular.

I also bought a variety of bowls and dressing bottles, but what I'm looking forward to using is this "Fruit Smoothy Maker".

It seems that you can easily make smoothie by adding fruits such as strawberries and mango, milk, yogurt, etc.

Because it is heat-resistant glass, it is said that hot chocolate can be made when it gets cold.

After all, the price was very good!

 On the way home, when I was walking toward Mt. Bakuroyoko, I found such a wild boar in front of Pigeon headquarters for baby goods.

According to the description, it is a reproduction of a wild boar statue in the square of Florence, Italy.IMG_0327.JPG

Any wild boar is a symbol of good luck, and if you touch your nose, it seems to be beneficial for money luck, marriage, child treasure, etc.

Perhaps because of that, the wild boar's nose was shiny

 Although it is an area where new condominiums have increased, there are old buildings in some places, so it was a fun walk behind the alley.

 

 

There is also an antenna shop stamp rally travel guide.

[Silver] October 3, 2014 14:00

 

 This spring, when I traveled to Kanmon Straits, Kintai-kyo Bridge and Hiroshima Prefecture in Yamaguchi Prefecture, I got tourist information and maps at an antenna shop in Chuo-ku, and enjoyed a fun trip.
In Kanmon Straits, "Kanmon TOPPA! It is a commemorative certificate that obtained the "Commemorative Certificate" and passed the age of 60 safely.

In Hiroshima, we visited Itsukushima-jinja Shrine in World Heritage, Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and the museum.

And this time I will visit Urabandai and Ouchi-juku in Fukushima Prefecture.
We obtained tourist information and maps at the Yaesu Tourist Exchange Center in Fukushima 2-6-21 Yaesu on Sotobori Street.
I was told a lot about Yae no Sakura before, but recently NHK's Taiga drama series ended, so I haven't been there for a while.

 You can visit the Kyoto Museum to get information about Kyoto, and also purchase a reference book for the Kyoto Examination here.
That's right! stamp rally, the antenna shop, is it?

 Information on sightseeing events of the Chuo-ku Tourism Association
"The 9th Antenna Shop stamp rally in Chuo-ku" will be held from October 2 to 16, 2014.
