Tomb and Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine of Toyoin and Tokasha 19

[Minori] January 28, 2016 14:00

Hello, this is Minori.

This time, I went to Kachidoki.

 

At Kachidoki 4-chome, there are Toyo-in and Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, where the tombs of Tokasha 19 are located.

 

Toyo-in was famous as a Koin (Kiyomasa Kodo) in Zenryuji Temple in Zenryuji Temple, commonly known as Shinteramachi "Asakusa Permanent Town" (currently Moto-Asakusa 2-chome, Taito-ku), but was burned down in the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923 (1923) It was relocated to its location as of May 1926 (1926). (By the way, Honji moved to Umeda 1-chome, Adachi-ku). He built a wooden main hall in 1927 (1927), a reinforced concrete charnel house in 1930 (1930), and a wooden warehouse in 1966 (1966).

The tomb of Jukasha 19 is located at the Toyoin Ossuary (indoor graveyard). The nineteen monuments "Tokasha 19 burial ground" (written by Musei Tokugawa) at the entrance of Toyo-in Temple were built by the Tokyo Film Company in February 1958 in the production of "Yaji Kita Dochuki". .

`` Tokaido Nakane Kurige '' is a story in which the main characters Yajirobei Tochimenya and Kitahachi travel on the Tokaido from Nihonbashi, and after Ise Sangu, take the form of a travel record that arrives in Kyoto. It became a masterpiece of 19. 19 died in 1831 (1832) and was buried in Toyoin.

 

Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine is in the same Kachidoki 4-chome.

In resting place of portable shrines during the festival of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, Tsukishima, Kachidoki and Harumi progressed, and as the shrine parishioner area expanded, resting place of portable shrines was established as a place of worship. It moved to Kachidoki 2-chome in 1930 (1930) and then to Kachidoki 4-chome in 1984 (1984). It's near Niijima Bridge.

 

If you exceed Asashio Kobashi (a bridge dedicated to bicycles and pedestrians, completed in March 2003 (2003), you can enjoy "Hot Plaza Harumi" (you can enjoy a heated pool and night view, outdoor jacuzzi, training area, and the latest machine) You can go out. In addition, if you walk straight along the same Harumi 5-chome toward the sea, you can also go to Harumi Wharf Park and Harumi Passenger Terminal.

A winter plant walk

[Sam] January 16, 2016 14:00

R0036828RSG.jpg An annual mini-garden guided tour that takes a walk around the park with the guidance of a green adviser at the Pocket Plaza "Flowers, Water and Trees" in Harumi Triton Square.

This month was held on January 14th. (12:30~ 14:30~)

Although it is a season of winter withering, the flowerbed has been devised to produce color.

At North Triton Park, you can observe Manryo (Manryo) and Senryo (Senryo) used as New Year's lucky items, as well as Karatachibana (100 cars) and Yabukoji (10 cars).

By the way, one of them is Alidoshi.

The seven herbs of spring, Nazuna, Tabirako, are also appearing.

At South Triton Park, one of Japan's representative flowering trees, camellia, is blooming.

This term reflected the warm winter, the Tokyo Regional Meteorological Observatory declared "Tsubaki Flowering" on December 26, last year, 45 days earlier than normal, 20 days earlier than last year.

On the flower terrace, Ginyouakasia (Mimosa / Mame family) has begun to bloom as early as possible.

You can also see the buds of the rare camellia "Elina".

In the form of a supple tree with thin branches and leaves, pretty pale pink flowers bloom in early spring.

Corrubing the leaves with a scent of sesame (watermelonaceae),

From the appearance of the goldfish opening their mouths, spreading the fins and swimming flutteringly

All of which are said to have been named Kindaisou (Gomanaceae), are unique.

The English name is that when the flower cylinder part is sandwiched between the upper lip valve and the lower lip valve opens sharply when the part of the flower tube is sandwiched from the side.

"Snap Dragon (biting dragon)" like a dragon.

One of the themes this time is "flower buds and leaf buds" waiting for spring.

We observed "winter buds" using flower buds and leaf buds of Yoshino cherry tree.

Flower buds are egg-shaped to long egg-shaped, leaf buds are elongated spindle-shaped.

In winter buds, it can be imagined that preparations for spring are being steadily advanced.

It is a frame that feels the skill of the mechanism of life.

It was a harsh winter garden, but it was a plant walk that learned a new approach, "seeing, listening, touching".

"Toto no Renkai"

[Marsha Horiuchi of Edo] January 14, 2016 16:00

It was in the New Year's pine tree that passed by a hurry. At the end of last year, I participated in the stamp rally called "Toto norenkai".
Many are located in places called downtown Tokyo (Chuo-ku, Taito-ku, Sumida-ku, Arakawa-ku, Koto-ku, Chiyoda-ku, Minato-ku).
It is a story that he made good legs regardless of the rain and wind while traveling back and forth between Edo and the present (exaggeration! I'm going alone.

 

"Toto norenkai" is a collection of 54 goodwill shops founded in Edo and Meiji eras and has a history of more than three generations and 100 years in Tokyo.
It is surprising that it was launched during the postwar turmoil period of 1951.
Tsukudani, eel, amazake, dumplings, glasses, fruits, laver, lacquerware, Japanese paper, tea, brush, bento, folding fan, toothpicks, etc.
Knife, Inari sushi, sweets, taiko, tempura, sukiyaki, tofu, Western cuisine, soba, footwear, Buddhist altars, dolls, duck, sake, anko pot,
Bread, kimono, hahabahabaki, tabi, hampan, bonito flakes and everyday items such as clothing, food and shelter are friendly.
Meanwhile, 26 long-established brands have shops in Chuo-ku. (Chuo-ku, \ (^ o ^)/)

I usually stopped by several shops, but in the future it seems that I will go more easily.

Temporary use of municipal bicycle parking lots has started.

[kimitaku] January 12, 2016 14:00

At the municipal bicycle parking lot from January 5 this year

Temporary use has started.

DSC_1443.JPG DSC_1445.JPG DSC_1444.JPG

Immediately at the Bizenbashi Bicycle Parking Lot, I tried to use it.

 First, take a bicycle into the bicycle parking lot, then turn to the vacant number 33.

I'll put the front wheel of the bicycle. Then, in about 10 seconds, "Gachan" and the front wheel were cut.

Rock.

DSC_1447.JPG DSC_1448.JPG DSC_1451.JPG

 I'll go back after shopping for about an hour, and then go to the tollgate.

 Enter your number 33 in the number frame.

 Because it is free, the front wheels of the bicycle are released immediately.

 I was able to embark on my bicycle.

 It's still the first attempt, and the staff is waiting.

 When I ask, the first two hours are free.

After that, 100 yen will be required every 8 hours.

 In other words, after placing a bicycle first

It's 100 yen up to 10 hours.

I was kind enough to teach you.

I've got a lot of luggage after shopping.

It's dangerous to go home by bicycle late at night.

I happened to meet my friends and drink alcohol.

It's very convenient.

 Let's enjoy your bicycle life safely using the bicycle parking lot.

For details, please see the December 1st edition of the ward bulletin.

Following the Spring Sea

 Sarashi fantasy song, Sanbaso suite, woodworking, and so on.

The elegant sound of the koto, Nagauta Shamisen, bamboo flute, Noh tube, and flute.

It echoed throughout the Grand Lobby.

The audience was intoxicated by the graceful melody.

Next, Edo Hayashi "Lion Dance"

 A lion appeared from the "stall" invited by the flute Takane (Takane) and appeared.

Dance rhythmically in the dance field, followed by scenes of "Shoden" and "Kamakura".

The lion is playing with the orange.

DSC_1491.JPG DSC_1484.JPG

I don't try to add mandarin oranges. When I look around, many children are crazy about the lion's gesture. I'm going to sleep with oranges. I had a slow lullaby around

The sound changed at once, and the lion jumped up, and "4-chome"

I ran around to give a fortune to the audience seat.

All the audience applauded.

At a fun concert, Harumi Triton Square is full of spring

I did it.
