Kurufuku-Nihonbashi

[Asunaro] December 30, 2017 16:00


When you go to souvenir shops, various beckoning cats
You can see it.

Shop. jpg

If you look closely, you can see the rising hand (front leg?) But
It's the right hand or the left hand.
It seems to have a meaning.

 

The right hand invites money.
The left hand invites people.
In both hands, both money luck and a thousand customers who invite people
It is said that there is a great deal.

 

And the higher the hand you raise, the more you invite the distant fortune.

Nihonbashi has been famous as a "Prayer for lost cats" since the Edo period.
There are many beckoning cats at the shrine as a thank you for fulfilling your wish.
I have it.

 

Beckoning cats have been loved by many Japanese since ancient times.
I hear that it is becoming more popular overseas.
You are still alive even in the year of the dog.

Edo Komata at Kakigaracho Park Edo komata by Mr. Masayuki Nagare

[Silver] December 29, 2017 18:00

 In a corner of Kakigaracho Park, there is a large foot-shaped sculpture. 

The author is Masayuki Nagare, a world-famous sculptor.

The name of the work is "Edo Komata", and the production year is 1992.

 

It's been about 10 years since I learned about the existence of this sculpture. However, it did not match the year of the adjacent TCAT (Tokyo Shitai Air Terminal, opened on July 1, 1972 (Showa 47) and the Royal Park Hotel (June 1, 1989, adjacent to Tokyo City Air Terminal (T-CAT) in Chuo-ku, Tokyo), so it remained with questions.

 Did these travel and tourism industries set up in hope of "travel safety"? I kept thinking about it. It's been about five years since my friend WLY told me to write a blog post.

 

 This time, at last, I was able to know how this sculpture was installed on the Internet.

According to the report, Chuo-ku said, "To commemorate the Declaration of Peace City, it was installed as a symbol of the city's peace at Kakigaracho Park adjacent to the Tokyo City Air Terminal, which is equivalent to the empty entrance of Chuo-ku." is. 

The URL of the announcement is posted on the "Heiwa, Chuo-ku Prayer Virtual Museum" and is here.

My long doubts were clear and clear. Have a safe trip! Bom voyage!

Originated from Yoshiume name Edo cuisine

[Silver] December 28, 2017 18:00

 We strolled from Nihonbashi to Ningyocho at a high school alumni association and had a meal at Yoshiume Ningyocho Main Store. We arrived at the shop through a alley where geisha could pass. The shop is a quaint entrance in a Japanese house. The frontage is narrow, but the depth and the depth of the dish are deep.

1513937162088.jpg 

 We had delicious food and blossomed in the story of the fun youth.

 

According to the leaflet we received at this time, we received it.

What is the origin of the store name?

"Yoshiume", who lived in Yoshicho, was founded in 1927. Since then, I have been delighted to convey the downtown atmosphere and Edo cuisine, and to have everyone enjoy it. Please enjoy the unchanging humanity and the dishes that you continue to explore every day.  The shopkeeper,'

 

 And in the guide of Yoshiume Yoshicho-tei, I'll tell you

"Yoshicho-tei, who repaired the residence of Kogiku Hanayagi, a famous actress who once stood in an alley called Geisha Shindo. Enjoy a relaxing time while feeling the four seasons in a private room surrounding the tsubo garden. "

The building of Yoshicho-tei was registered in the National Registered Tangible Cultural Property on August 21, 2002.

(C)2018 Movie "When the curtain of prayer comes down" Production Committee

 

The movie "When the Prayer Curtains Fall" will be released on January 27th.

This is a tour of Rosmari's location in Chuo-ku, this time it is File NO.6, Kyogashi Tsukasa Gyokudo.

On July 7th, Gyokuido performed a filming.

The article will be published in January.

It is Mr. Yasuto Imae Imae, who speaks.

 

In addition, here is the article on location tour 1 of the movie "When the curtain of prayer goes down"

⇒ /archive/2017/12/post-4817.html

 

Then...

 

DSC03188a.jpg

The shooting location of this movie "When the Prayer Curtain Down" is outside this shop.

The inside of the store is not the stage of the movie.

At the time of the location of the TV drama "Newcomer" seven years ago, I just filmed in front of my house, but since I was shooting in a hot season, I'm making great air conditioning. Because the goods are good.

Because it doesn't use preservatives, it's easy to get hurt. And the environment is really bad in summer.

It feels great when you come in from outside.

Mr. Abe and Mr. Mizobata came in a lot and were cool here.

I came here except for shooting.

DSC03165a.jpg

It was also used for gifts, tan chestnuts.

Chestnuts are eaten first, and then the guest performers change every time the TV drama "Newcomer" changes.

It seems to have been given to the guest performer every time, thank you.

This time (the location of the movie "When the Prayer Curtain Down"), I said I would like to set up buying Torayaki, and I lined up here (beside the shop). That's all.

I was shooting here all the way side by side from here, so I was watching here all the time.

DSC03171a.jpg

Abe shot in front of our shop during the TV drama "Newcomer", and at that time there was no customer coming in.

So, at that time, Mr. Abe said, "I'm sorry."

And this person is a good man-in-law.

From there, I came to like Mr. Abe.

It was a top runner for us, or a fashion leader.

I'm close to my age and have a close relationship.

There was a drama that Abe did, a single man's drama, but we now live in the apartment we used for location there.

Because of that kind of relationship, I felt close relatives, and I came here, so I thought it was something to do.

 

DSC03167a.jpg

"Newcomer" When I was filming, I was just delivering sweets from here.

My acquaintance happened to buy a lot of ice cream by mistake, and I just bought 200 or 300 when I was told that I would give it just as much as I could.

It was on hand, so the first time I took it because it was hot, and the relationship began.

At first, it's not my own product.

 

After that, bring it with you at the time of the movie "Kirin's Tsubasa-Theatrical Version, Newcomers-".

DSC03166a.jpg

 

Since this movie is the last episode of the newcomer series, I thought Ningyocho wouldn't be too much, so this time I put a little effort into it.

I heard the location date and time and place from the filmmaker I met before, and brought it to me.

Then, Mr. Fukuzawa, the director, should be aware of it.

 

When I filmed at Meijiza, I went with an extra. It's the third filming of Meijiza.

I'm taking a climax scene.

Then Mr. Fukuzawa, the director, will find me.

The staff sat here, here.

It's because Nanako Matsushima stands behind here.

 

Mr. Fukuzawa is a really amazing person. I wonder if Yukichi Fukuzawa's grandson.

Of course, I think it was very good to know Mr. Abe.

 

・・Thank you, Mr. Imae.

After this, we will continue to introduce each location and talk about location.

Please look forward to it.

We spoke with the landlady Kie Shiga.

"I don't know if the entrance was a bit reflected before entering the store, but the whole area around this entrance was shot as if it were operating normally.

Until you enter, the door opens and closes.

I think the camera is from the outside. This time, I didn't talk much about the shooting.

I took the location of the TV drama "Newcomer" in the room, but this time I think it's an extension of that.

I think the Japanese shop curtain on the table was probably different.

Japanese shop curtain was opening and picking up."

 

In addition, here is the introduction article of Kikuya.
