Chuo-ku event in October

[Old Rose] October 31, 2016 14:00

This month, I enjoyed it very much at the Chuo-ku event.

 

One was three lectures on "Edo's food" at Nihonbashi Elementary School.

In the story of Mr. Takeo Koizumi's `` Bansen competition '', a barrel boat loaded with sake from Osaka Nishinomiya competed with `` Yoidon '' aiming for Edo Minato, which ship would arrive first off Shinagawa. It seems that.

There was also a "Tea Clipper Race" in U.K., and there was a race to carry tea from China to U.K.

 

young sake must have been boiled in barrels this season and tasted.

There must have been a lot of sake brewery in the Nihonbashi area.

 

The second is the "Chuo-ku Marugoto Museum" on the 30th.

I became a correspondent of the Chuo-ku Tourism Association, and for the first time I did a bus guide.

Sometimes I heard a voice from behind me saying, "Oh, that's right," and I was very happy to respond. 

I'll try it again next year.

 

 

Yagenbori Moving Shopping Street Fair Festival held on October 28 and 29 2016

[Silver] October 30, 2016 14:00

 "Yagenbori Mobile Shopping Street fair Festival" will be held, so I went on the first day of October 28. 

This year marks the 425th anniversary of the founding of fudoson Yagenbori.

According to the weather forecast, it was raining around 15 o'clock, so I went out before that to enjoy shopping and talks. However, it began to rain before 13 o'clock, and it did not stop easily, and it continued to rain until evening.

Even so, everyone who is holding the event is professional.

The mobile shopping street was open with a tent.

At Yagenbori Hori fudoson, a zodiac talisman was awarded to those who came to visit.

The entertainment people also smile and entertain the customers who come with matcha and sweets. Thank you very much.

 The talk was a story by Mr. Sadashin Ichiryusai, a story about "Jirocho in Shimizu and Ishimatsu in Mori".

 "Kurenai Kanda" teacher talked about the human story of "Bunzaemon Kinokuniya" with enthusiasm.

This year's topic was that rickshaws and palanquins will guide you around Yagenbori. I took a rickshaw for the first time.

Despite the rainy weather, the rickshaw driver guided us from fudoson to Nihonbashi Junior High School and near Ryogokubashi.

 The party of the chindonya also performed well, paraded around the town, and excited the festival.

Chuo-ku Cultural and International Exchange Promotion Association 2-Business Contents and Events-

[rosemary sea] October 24, 2016 09:00

This is rosemary sea, which covers "gifts and enjoy yourself" as an understanding.

 

Chuo-ku Cultural and International Exchange Promotion Association (CCIEA) will continue to show.

 

This time, we will discuss the business and events.

I would like to continue to talk to Mayumi Hayashi of this association.

 

― About Japanese language class

"This is, in other words, the main business.

Since it is a classroom normally, this teacher says, "Everyone who is doing it is a volunteer.

First of all, you can use one room here. Other places in the city, such as the Women's Center or the Nihonbashi Social Education Center.

In addition, there are other things that I have to borrow separately. Originally, there were only three classrooms hosted by our association, but there were 2,30 volunteers here to teach foreigners living and working in Chuo-ku and those who are having trouble in Japanese. There is a classroom in the form. So, there is a lot of demand that we want to study intermediate and advanced even if we are in trouble, and there are a lot of volunteers starting up and now there are 10 classrooms in total. "

"It seems that there are many people from China and Korea as a country. About 60% of foreigners living in Chuo-ku are Chinese and Koreans. I don't think it has changed for years. However, there are many things like Europe and the United States and Southeast Asia. In addition to living, it's okay to work."

"If you want to know more about this, please visit our website. In addition to Japanese and English, information can be obtained in Chinese and Korean.

Betara City

[Tachibana] October 21, 2016 12:00

Today (October 20), I went to "Bettara City".

It's very cold in October when "Betara City" is often October! There are many days, but today's day was a warm day with temperatures rising to about 27 degrees Celsius, and it was not cold at all with a single shirt from evening to night.

This year, I came from Sugimori Shrine.

Kagura was performed on the stage of the shrine.

And at the Bon Dance Festival, people wearing happi coat of "Betara Ondo" were dancing.

There are many shops that are pickled in Betara, but roughly speaking, there are two trains, "Kinhisa" and "Shin Takaya".

niitakaya.jpg               "Shin Takaya" is a blue happi coat

This year, I bought one piece without skin at both shops.
 

 

In addition, a long-established store in Nihonbashi also has stalls and sells for sale.

meijiya.jpgAt Meijiya, coffee was cheap, so I bought it in a big bag.

funasa.jpgI bought Tsukudani in "Kaishin" and "Funasa".

Fir laver was a bargain at "Yamamoto Nori".

In addition, bargain products were lined up at many shops such as "Civilizationdo", "Ninben", and "Eel Ise Sada".
