The Hakozaki area in April, albeit even more.

It was a big event that the enshrined deity of Suitengu was returned from the temporary palace in Hamacho where he was in motion and was enshrined as it was.

Originally, the gods were recommended by Kurume as the Arima family's Edo mansion god, so the territory of land such as Tomioka-san and Kanda-jinja Shrine (?) No. What? He came back quite quietly.

 

The photo shows the grounds that were visited and photographed on April 9, the day after he was returned, but it was more crowded than before. Moreover, I heard that the first dog day after being returned was a long line.
 

One day, I would like to visit the main shrine, Kurume's Suitengu Shrine, but anyway, it's far from Edo.

  

And now Kumamoto and Kyushu are under threat from major earthquake.

 

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you.

  

I pray that the prayer to Suiten will calm down the earth.

 

 

 

 

 

Here's a very nice cafe in Kakigara-cho.

"SUNNY COFFEE" opened in September 2014 (Heisei 26).

Turn left at the Kakigaracho intersection on Shin-ohashi-dori St. toward Shinohashi, turn right in front of Toyoko INN Nihonbashi Ningyocho to several tens of meters.

A wonderful cafe filled with the dreams of a handsome husband and a lovely cute wife with a smile.

It's such a shop that you want to support.

 

From 8:00 to 11:00, breakfast with special bread sandwiches and toasts starts from 500 yen, and from 11:00 to 14:00, lunch with organic vegetable sandwiches and drinks starts from 750 yen (weekdays only).

I'm glad that the price setting is conscientious and friendly!

  

It is a small shop with about 16 seats, but the inside of the shop is full of cleanliness and the warmth of wood can be felt.

The polite and soft customer service of the couple is also available◎

Not only office workers, couples, but also women alone are comfortable and completely non-smoking, so it seems that those with infants can relax with peace of mind.

 

Not only coffee, but also morning, lunch, and takeout of baked sweets is OK!

There is also a sale of self-roasted coffee beans.

 

I ordered a cafe au lait and caramel banana chiffon cake.

Wow~, cute cafe au lait art!

The handmade chiffon cake was delicious with cafe au lait, a gentle taste with a modest sweetness and rich flavor of the ingredients.

 

It seems that water coffee is also available from late April. Umm, it looks delicious!

Because it is located near Koami Shrine, it is ideal not only for visiting but also for walking around Ningyocho.

It's not a prominent place, but a secret, but authentic coffee cafe.

Why don't you try delicious coffee, sandwiches and baked goods once by all means?

　Flower of Chuo-ku. It is a azalea (including Satsuki).

　In the neighborhood of Chuo-ku, azaleas are blooming here and there.
If you look closely at the azalea flowers, you can see a spotted pattern on the upward petals.
This pattern is said to be a "mitsuhyo" that teaches insects what honey should be.

 

It is also called "guide mark" because it guides insects to carry pollen according to the wishes of the flowers.
It's called. I feel the wonder and fun of plants. There are great things where you don't usually notice.

If you feel like a plant or insect, you may notice other signs.

There are a lot of square parks in Chuo-ku. Why don't you check it near you?

Cherry blossoms are falling, and more than a month before entering the rainy season is the best of the year.

I think it's a great time.
At that time, the Suiten Miyashin Shrine was completed and was transferred from the temporary shrine on Meijizawaki.
New shrine hall is made of white wood and shines in the spring sun.

This time, I will post photos from last year when I started seeing Suiten Miyashin shrine hall.

　

This was due to the removal of a part of the construction scaffold last August (2015), and its appearance began to appear.

　　

This was in October 2015.

　　

　　

This was slightly scent of wood (hinoki) during the cold New Year's Eve in 2015.

　

　

 This was January

　

　

This was March 9th.

　

　

These are the records of April. It has been changed.

　

　

The new shrine hall has a seismic isolation structure and moves up to 60 cm horizontally.
Therefore, there is a groove around the building and is planted.

　
Be careful in the event of an earthquake. 　

 

 

On April 8, in Nihonbashikakigaracho, the famous god of safe delivery, "Suitengu-san"
New shrine hall looks like a modern and new wood with a seismic isolation structure, at the intersection below it.
It is open along with the Suitengu-mae police box with a kind feeling.

　

　

　

In the first year of Edo's Bunsei (1818), the Arima family of the Kurume clan was recommended for a spirit from the Kurume clan.
It is said that this construction project was promoted because the 200th anniversary of 2018 was reached.

　

　

　

The famous statue of "Koho Inu" has also returned from the temporary residence Royal Park.

Fuku dogs (in dog papier) and dogs wearing bamboo (bags) (if converted into kanji, it is fun only for those who purchased it)

I bought lucky items.

　

If you like, please go out.

　

Thank you.

 

 

On April 10th (Sun), I went to Mr. Suitengu as a prayer for safe delivery and his grandson, first shrine visit for a newborn.

The first thing that surprised me when I arrived at Suitengu after noon was that I only visited main hall and had to wait for more than an hour before entering the precincts.

If you think about it, the first "Dog Day" after Suitengu was returned to oyster shell town. It may be natural that you can't wait and come to visit.

But we still have a two-month-old grandson, and if we thought we would have to give up today, the security guard told us that first shrine visit for a newborn would be able to enter without waiting, so I immediately applied for first shrine visit for a newborn and quickly passed through the waiting room.

The waiting room is a spacious and well-lit room.

　

　

The elbows of the bench in the waiting room can be raised, and if it is vacant, it seems that you can keep the baby sleeping while waiting. There is also a nursing room.
And a celebration flower was received from Prime Minister Abe.


It is a long corridor that leads from the room where Mr. chief priest pays to the exit.

Thanks to Suitengu's consideration so that pregnant women and babies will not be lined up for too long, we were able to complete the visit safely.
Thank you very much.
