Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

In October, a monument of Yodo Odai was built in front of Yaesu Daibiru in Yaesu 2-chome. The patient's child is cute and open.

Yodo Odai, a Chinese medicine physician from late Tokugawa shogunate from Echigo. It seems that he was living around here.

Will it be published in the Chuo-ku Tourism Guide next year and appear in the certification test? !

 

 

The next day after watching "Genroku era Chushingura", I decided to watch "Matsuura Taiko" at Heisei Nakamuraza. A popular performance with many performances alongside "Yotsuya Kaidan" in "Gishigaiden". Matsuura's lord, who lives in the residence next to Kira Uenosuke, the head of the headquarters, was coming to Oishi built-in assistant who did not enter, but he said, "retainer is a Yamaga-style Jin Taiko!" When it is performed at Nakamuraza in Asakusa, the headquarters is close, so I'm glad that you can feel like a "local thing".

"Haiku" plays a major role in this play. At the beginning of Ryogokubashi, where snow falls, Kikaku Takarai, a teacher of haikai, accidentally encounters Gengo Otaka, a Nanji Akaho, who is selling bamboo grass. The corner, who was sorry for the pitiful appearance, gave a worshiper from Hou Matsuura, and turned his phrase, "The flow of the year, the flow of water, and the body of people," Gengo said, "The treasure ship I will wait tomorrow." Returns the phrase ". Hou Matsuura immediately understands the meaning, and at that time he hears the sound of the Jin Taiko.

It is said to have been made during the rain begging at Sankai Shrine, which is also described in the "Edo Famous Zoukai", such as "If you are a god of visiting the sunset or rice fields" and "There is no day when one bell can not be sold in Edo spring" Kikaku Takarai, who is famous as one of the Juetsu Shomon, was born in the first year of Kanbun (1661), the eldest son of the Edo clan in the Edo. At first, he gave himself the last name of his mother's surname, Enomoto, and later called Takarai. In the first year of the Enpo era (1673), he became a master of Basho and edited a collection of phrases such as "Country Hakuai", "Kaguri", and "Kareohana". After Basho's death, he promoted the flashy fashionable haikai and was called "Edoza". The residence at the corner is located near Yakushido (Chisen-in) in Minami Kayabacho, where he died (1707).

The phrase "Ume incense and next door is Ogiu Souemon" is also written in the "Edo Famous Zoukai" and says "... I will help you get close to your home." It is said that Ogiu Souemon advised Yoshiyasu Yanagisawa when deciding on the story of the Akaho incident known as Sorai Ogyu.

At the entrance of Mizuho Bank at Kayabacho Station on the Hibiya Line, there is a stone monument of "the ruins of the corner residence". The tomb is said to be at Chokeiji Temple in Morishita, Koto-ku. Since it was 350 years of birth, I wonder if there were any events? When I searched for it, it seems that there was a recruitment of commemorative Haiku last year.

As an aside, Shigenobu Matsuura (Matsura Shigenobu, this is called Matsura), which is regarded as a model of "Matsuura Taiko" (Matsuura no Taiko), is the fourth feudal lord of 63,000 stones of the Hizen Hirato Domain. As you can see in the play, you have a deep exchange with Soko Yamaga, and a cultural person who started the tea ceremony Iwami-style one-stop religion. By the way, Seizan Matsura (1760-1841), who wrote 278 volumes of "Koshi Night Story" (written anecdotes of Daimyo Hagimoto and customs of Ichii) after retirement, was the ninth generation feudal lord. A rare sword master for a daimyo and became famous as Nomura's reputation, "Winning is mysterious. Lost ... "is the word in Shizuyama's "kendan".

 

 

 

　Ginza Christmas Art Festa 2011 is being held from December 9th to 17th, 2011. It seems that this is the third year's event. Ginzo has participated in the "Gallery Tour by Bus" with his own curiosity. http://www.ginza-galleries.com/xmasartfes.html

　The navigator was Yoko Noro, Vice President of Ginza Yanagi Gallery. I also participated from Narita City and Ibaraki Prefecture in Chiba Prefecture.　Speaking of Yoko Noro, he is the author of "Ginza Gallery Tour-City Planning and Art Education" (New Kyoronsha). The book you subscribed to is not only an introduction to the gallery in Ginza, but also art education for children in Chuo-ku and interaction with local people, so the students of Yasuaki Elementary School visit the gallery in Ginza with the sympathy of the Rotary clubs who are participating.　I participated in the gallery tour in Ginza and expanded my expectations.　I was a gallery tour by bus, but on December 11, a gallerist lead tour was held, and a tour was held walking along four courses from A to D.

Before departure, when asked how many galleries are there in Ginza, there are about 300 galleries. Today, I went around 27 galleries of more choice.　27 galleries are also held to discover and introduce each theme and excellent newcomers. Today, I would like to introduce it to you.

　Each gallery will explain the features of the shop's works in an easy-to-understand manner to beginners.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He also gently answered the customer's questions, gained knowledge, and felt the work closer.

Mr. Waka, here, said, "I don't think I can come today and buy it right away," and seemed to be staring at the gallery business, and I felt a falcony.　I'm a good man.

I thought that the exhibited work was similar to the picture of printmaker Shiko Munakata, and when asked a question, he told me that the painter Dalius was a disciple of Picasso and Chagall, and the connection between the painters.

You don't think the gallery has a high threshold. You'll be greeted with a smile.

First of all, let's go to the "Xmas Art Festa" currently being held.  Then, next time we meet at the gallery. I'll be able to show off to my friends.

◎Correspondent Visit to Shopping Street (20th)◎

Downtown in business district / Kayabacho store association

In 270 years of Edo Taihei, facing the Nihonbashi River and the Kamejima River, Shinohashi / Heisei-dori and Eitai-dori St. run vertically and horizontally, and the Tozai Line and Hibiya Line of Tokyo Metro intersect at 10 o'clock. Kayabacho, where the atmosphere of the history and downtown remains dark.

Chairman Shinzo Tamura is an elegant five-story building.

・・What! In the outer corner of the second floor, a statue of Japanese racoon dog (Shigaraki ware) near 3m lowering the Tokuri is staring at me! ・・・

Daily necessities and cigarettes on the 1st and 2nd floors of the building (one side case with all kinds is amazing!) Handle

He is the owner of "Akasatsuya Tamura Shoten".

He is a lively and lively chairman who is unlikely to be after a major illness.

A wife who has been married for over 50 years,

The president's son greeted me with a smile.

 

This area is a meadow overgrown with kaya at the time of the construction of Edo Castle, and it is said that the name of the town was moved here to open up the town. It has been thriving until the 1930s as a town with many liquor stores, public baths, restaurants, especially craftsmen (carpenters, tatami shops, tin shops, Ishiya, Komaiya = plastering shops, etc.).

　The store association was established around 1965 (at the time of the Tokyo Olympics), but from that time, the form of living has changed significantly due to the conversion of buildings, the development of transportation networks (roads and subways), and the closing of stock sales venues (reduction of 50,000).

　Currently, shops and companies along the 2-3-chome town and Sakura-dori St. are members, but the biggest problem is the sluggish growth of participating members. Aiming to increase the number of members while gaining the understanding and support of young people and wards and cities in the future, cherishing this blessed land and environment for more than 400 years of tradition, next to the three houses next to each other, greetings from children to the elderly He also talked passionately with his son that he wanted to work on creating a "people"-centered city where everyone, from the elderly, can safely and easily.

　The health method of the chairman (80 years old) learned from Dr. Hinohara (100 years old) at the International St. Luke's Hospital, who took a walk in the early morning and spent his life, and said, "The dream of realizing a healthy longevity of 100 years is a dream." It is an ale.

(By the way, Yonezo Kishigami, a 100-year-old, who began the migration of three generations of three couples at the Nihonbashi Bridge Centennial Festival, was born in Kayabacho.)

　Near the Kayabacho Shopping Association, there are also the birthplace of the bank, the Kamejima River and Kameshima Bridge, Sakura-dori St., a tunnel of cherry blossoms in spring, and auxiliary shrine Hie-jinja Shrine, which became resting place of portable shrines during the Sanno Festival and Shinko Festival. Please go out.

 

 

 

The arrival "Ruretto" was delicious, so I visited the shop. It is the first floor of the building where the Hatchobori Post Office is located about 5 minutes from Hatchobori Station. Next door is a flower shop.

It's just lunchtime, so men and women who seem to be working in the neighborhood enter constantly. "I too ..." There is a scent of freshly baked cakes and bread in the small shop. First of all, 1,000 yen for 5 pieces in the "Ruretto" box and 1,050 yen for 6 roses. There are many kinds of cake and bread. When I was wandering around with one tong in my hand, I was told to a shop that felt like a bread shop, "It's also here." A little older shop, "delicious" aura is rising from all over the body. We decided to give bread together at the place we visited, and we had walnuts, blueberry bagels, and raisin rolls. I had a lot of trouble before I decided, but I can't do it at once.

"Ruretto ROULETTE is a cute car in French (which also means a game roulette), a crisp texture and a rich taste, carefully baked one by one. We do not use preservatives, additives, etc. "As you can see in the guide of the shop, it is a pie that feels nostalgic with a firm texture that is a bit different from the fashionable Western confectionery that gives priority to appearance. "When the company was founded in 1960, the city was surrounded by Horikawa, and a mulled fish called a success fish was swimming in a flock, and I often fished and played. However, four years later, most Horikawa was dried up in preparation for the Tokyo Olympics and Horikawa turned into the capital city ... "As stated on the website, Hatchobori, which has now become a business district, disappeared, but the taste of the tradition that has been made for more than 50 years seems to be increasing the number of fans. (I have increased by one person today.)

I thought it would be good for "New Year's cards", and when I asked, it would be sold out every year, so it was recommended to make an early reservation.

It is a resting place for office workers who are tired of business.
This is the area of this photo on the 2nd floor of Nihonbashi Mitsui Tower.
Originally, it might be a meeting place, but it's a little dark.
If you have such a sofa, I'm going to sleep.

In addition, since it is an area where wireless LAN can be received as a great deal of money, it is an inter-connected area.
It can be done crisply, such as online and email.
