Edobashi was built about 100 meters downstream from the current location. Enlarged map (enclosed in red) You can see Nihonbashi Edobashi. (Blue surrounded by blue) This is the Edo shogunate Fish House. I think he was prepared for celebration. I think it was difficult to change the seawater.⁉

It's around Nihonbashi Post Office.

What's the word "No"? Mischief⁉

Zhubo's ten hands 3.jpgThe stone mark of Ichiishibashi lost child!

What is the character "No" on this stone marker?

(yellow arrow) (enlarged characters are green)

Reference point Mayiko.jpg DSCN1066 - Copy. jpg

It's a syntax.

A stamp engraved to measure the height difference in the early Meiji era. It seems that there are still about 40 places in Tokyo.

At first, 150 places were installed. It is a place where everything will remain permanently.

However, sir. 。 。 ?

Please stand along with the cherry blossom viewing.

 

 

"I think dolls have a doll's life"-"Yoyuki Exhibition" begins-Matsuya Ginza

"Yoyuki Exhibition"-The trajectory of creative dolls-was started in Matsuya Ginza on the 21st of the triumphal Paris and umbrella Kotobuki Memorial. Following the success of the exhibition in Paris for the first time in 12 years, this exhibition, which is the first time in eight years in Tokyo, says, "This time, from overseas stories such as early Cinderella and Peter Pan, the theme of Japanese nostalgia We will exhibit about 150 works, including 70 new works, including hymns for children living in "now". " (From the exhibition guide). The doll created by Yuuki Yo, who is popular not only in Japan but also around the world, is not just a doll, but a creature with a soul. Visitors look very carefully one by one, so the line does not go easily. I decided to go on the reverse course. The last waited was Takeshi Beat entitled "Oira" and Joji of "Tokoro-san". It's just like I'm talking to you. I can't get tired of seeing the expressions of the children playing soccer. You can see the gentle gaze of Yoyuki. Children in the Taisho era and early Showa eras sitting in front of snacks also heard voices from the venue saying, "I miss kimonos."

 

At the entrance, Mr. Yukiyo's words, "I think dolls have a doll's life."

 

What will the future life of the dolls that have been blown into Yoyuki?

When I went out of the venue, I saw the sign of "Kagura Sakaki no Zen". There's an eat-in corner. It was a "regular holiday" when I went out once because it was a famous sweet shop. This is the first time. I went in immediately and made it "Kuzumochi" because I was worried. The people around me enjoy the most famous "Anmitsu". When you leave the shop, the next door is Tsutsui in Shinkawa. Oh! There was also an omurice! I shouldn't have been surprised at this. In addition, next to the store is "Cafe Paulista", the birthplace of "Gin Bra".

 

Of course, the exhibition is also available, but the eat-in corner cannot be removed. It seems that the shop will change in the first and second half of the exhibition, so I have to come again. The first half is until the 27th.

 

Yoyuki Exhibition Until April 10, Matsuya Ginza 8F Event Square

Closed at 17:00 on the last day from 10:00 to 20:00

Admission fee: General 1200 yen

 

 

 

Even though Hatchobori, where is the moat?

It is derived from a canal that existed from the early Edo period to the vicinity of the Kyobashi Police Museum to the Kamejima River until after the Pacific War. It was opened. It was not reclaimed. There is also a theory. ) Is the place where Sakuragawa Park and (Work Welfare Center has been dismantled). There is an explanation version in front of Keika Square.

Hatchobori because the distance of the canal was Hatcho (109m x 8).

 

 

 

The name of the historical writer of the wonderful cloisonne cloisonne is also introduced.

 Today, I visited "Ando Shihoten" near the corner of Ginza 5-chome.

There were spring-like cherry blossoms, my favorite Cattleya flower pattern, designs such as "Owl", and cloisonne products depicting famous peak Fuji.

This time, I especially liked the cloisonne product designed by "Aka Fuji", loop tie.

The city walk in Ginza will be more and more fun in the future.

 They were carefully packaged, and in the box, there was a piece of paper indicating the artist's name and a brilliant award. 

With this casual attention, I became more and more fond of "Ando Shihoten".

 *We received a leaflet describing the production process of Cloisonne.

The technique of the cloisonne was invented by Tsuneyoshi Kaji of Owari Kaifu-gun during the Tenpo era, and the history of the development from the invention of the cloisonne is described.
