Chuo-ku Events in October

[Oldrose] 14:00 on October 31, 2016

This month, we had a lot of fun 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 Nishinomiya Osaka was competing with `` Yoyon '' aiming for Edo Minato and which ship would first arrive off Shinagawa off the coast of Shinagawa. It seems that.

The U.K. also had the Tea Clipper Race, and there was a race to transport tea from China to U.K.

 

young sake must have been swept in barrels this season.

The Nihonbashi area probably had a lot of sake brewery.

 

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 tried a bus guide.

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

I'll try it again next year.

 

 

Yagenbori Moving Shopping Street Fair Festival October 28 and 29 2016

[Ginzo] 14:00 on October 30, 2016

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

This year is the 425th anniversary of the establishment of Yagenbori fudoson.

According to the weather forecast, it was raining around 15:00, so I went out to enjoy shopping and talks before that. However, it began to rain before 13:00, and it did not stop easily, and it continued to rain until evening.

Even so, you guys are professional.

The mobile shopping street was open with tents.

Yagenbori Hori fudoson presented a zodiac talisman to those who came to visit.

The entertainment people also enjoy matcha and sweets to customers who come with a smile. It was a good point.

 The talk is a story of "Jirocho Shimizu and Ishimatsu in the Forest" by Mr. Iryu Sai Sadashin.

 Kurenai Kanda's 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. It was my first time to ride a rickshaw.

Despite the rain, the driver of the rickshaw guided us from fudoson to Nihonbashi Junior High School and Ryogokubashi.

 The party of the chindonya also played well in the economy, paraded around the town, and excited the festival.

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

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

Other than that, I borrow it separately.

There is a classroom in the form. So, the demand for studying intermediate and advanced even if it is in trouble, is increasing in various ways, and volunteers have started up and now there are 10 classrooms in total. "

Bettara City

[Tachibana] 12:00 on October 21, 2016

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

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

This year, I entered from Sugimori Shrine.

Kagura was performed on the stage of the shrine.

And at the Bon Dance Festival, people wearing the happi coat of "Bettara Ondo" danced.

There are many shops that are pickled in bettara, but roughly divided into two series: "Kinkyu" and "Shin Takaya".

niitakaya.jpg               "Shin Takaya" is blue happi coat

This year, I bought a pair of unskinned strips at both shops.
 

 

In addition, long-established stores in Nihonbashi also set up stalls and sell them for sale.
