Warehouses reminiscent of the Showa era

[kimitaku] October 31, 2017 16:00

From Ginza, go south on Harumi-dori St.

 If you go further from Harumi Island Triton Square, you will find Harumi Ohashi.

If you look up the sidewalk from the right side of the bridge and look on the right side, you can see the Suzue Gumi Warehouses beyond the grass.

 Until recently, there were a lot of transportation cars coming and going, but now it's quiet.

 Night walks are a little scary because there is no traffic.

I'm pointing my smartphone lens to take a picture, but it's too huge and doesn't seem to fit into the subject.

There are entrances on each floor, which reminds you when many people were entering and exiting this warehouse group.

 This precious warehouse group that retains the remnants of Showa. The site area is also large.

What will happen in the future?

 It was sunny today and beautifully towering against the backdrop of the Rainbow Bridge.

 A 15-minute walk from Kachidoki Station on the Toei Oedo Line.

I went to Tsukuda!

[Hikoharu Co., Ltd.] October 31, 2017 14:00

The weather was good for the first time in a long time after a typhoon, so I hanged and went to Tsukuda.

Today's Tsukuda originates from Ishikawajima and Tsukuda Island in the Edo period.

Today, I was hanging around the former Tsukuda Island and the current Tsukuda 1-chome.

As you all know, Tsukuda Island follows village headman Magoemon Mori in Tsukuda Village, Nishinari-gun, Settsu Kuni.

It is an island built by fishermen who descended to Edo.

Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine began with the separation of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine in Tsukudamura, Nishinari-gun, Settsu-kuni in 1646.

 

IMG_0687.JPG IMG_0684.JPG

Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine's ceramic flats and basins are one of the highlights.

The flat amount is due to the dyeing brush of Prince Arisugawa Miyanobori.

In addition, there are sailing boats and scenery of clam digging in the open space of the basin.

The scenery of Tsukuda Island is carved.

 

IMG_0699.JPG IMG_0695.JPG

On the back of the basin of the basin of the basin, it is engraved with "1841 Ox New Year Shirakogumi".

Both Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine pottery flats and basins are registered in the ward Tangible Cultural Property.

In addition, there is a Gosei Kawayanagi and Mizutani Ryotei monument on the grounds of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, which is said to be "a soft and hard".

The phrase "human heart" is engraved.

 

IMG_0721.JPG IMG_0670.JPG IMG_0725.JPG

After passing through the torii gate of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine and walking toward the Sumida River, you will see the stone monument at the site of the Tsukuda Island ferryboat.

I'll come in. The ferry was abolished in 1964 with the completion of Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge.

Nearby, three Tsukudani shops that have continued since the Edo period are still open.

 

IMG_0665.JPG IMG_0664.JPG

Next to the ruins of Tsukuda Island Ferry Terminal, there is the Tsukuda Machikado Exhibition Hall, a lion head and portable shrine.

You can see it.

 

IMG_0656.JPG IMG_0655.JPG IMG_0654.JPG

If you look at the former Ishikawajima area with Sumiyoshi Kobashi on your right, you can see the ruins of Ishikawajima Lighthouse.

You can do it. In addition, you can see the Sumiyoshi sluice gate seriously.

Sluice gates are usually open for entry and exit of ships, but during storm surges and tsunamis.

It is said that it will be closed to protect the lives and property of local residents.

 

IMG_0683.JPG IMG_0676.JPG IMG_0744.JPG

As I walked through Tsukuda, there were several active wells.

And it's Kobashi Tsukuda. In Tsukuda Kobashi, the pillar of the large banner used at the festival of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine is corrupted.

It is buried at the bottom of the river to prevent it. On the white sign, "This place is

It was allowed to be built by Tokugawa shogunate in the late Edo period (1798).

The pillars and hugs of the large banner are buried, so you can enter and dig up.

Don't do it. It was written as Sumiyoshi Tsukuda.

And the last photo shows "River City 21" towering behind Tsukuda Kobashi.

This is a group of high-rise apartments. Do you match this emotional cityscape of Tsukuda?

Don't you do it? I didn't know well. ・・・

 

 

 

Talk at the whole museum Yagenbori in the rain

[saru] October 31, 2017 12:00

Unfortunately, the whole museum of Chuo-ku on October 29 was raining due to the approach of a typhoon. SARU goes to Harumi Passenger Terminal to serve as the first free bus volunteer bus guide. At around 8 o'clock, we headed from the bus stop at Tsukiji 3-chome by Tokyo bus, but the staff had already begun preparations for the bus stop, and in the cold weather, it was hard outside and went to Harumi. There was an unexpected cruise liner on Harumi. It's called the Costaneo Roman Chika, a large Italian passenger ship. It seems that he had changed his schedule to avoid the typhoon and entered Tokyo. The open Antarctic observation ship "Shirase" arrived behind it. I learned from SARU after finishing the guide, but this release was the previous "Shirase". I thought it was an active "shirase" and guided me. The rain was severe, and the active person had visited Yokosuka, so I passed. I went if I knew it was my predecessor...。 By the way, the Antarctic observation team departs from Harumi Wharf every year on the news. At the Harumi venue, the event outside was a bit severe due to the rain, but the indoor chorus of `` Chuo-ku Priyle Junior Chorus '' also had foreign customers on the cruise ship and applauded the cute singing voice. Was.

As for the bus, there were few customers because it was the first bus in the morning due to rain, but the scenery from the window could not be seen well, forgetting words with tension, and also a passenger ship or a foreigner It was a cold sweat. I'm sorry for the poor guide who got on the train. The most surprising thing was that I stopped the talk of Yagenbori Fudoin, which I was trying to talk about. So I went to Yagenbori Fudoin with reflection. Here, we have a chat with local people while having matcha. "This is better than Kawasaki, which is crowded with protection against misfortune," he said. The next protection against misfortune was the SARU I would like to ask for. So, the talk began in the Edo period when a person named Seizaemon Akamatsu took Taiheiki at nearby Ryogoku Hirokoji Temple and Asakusa Mitsukemachi Tsuji, and a monument to the birthplace of the talk stands. On this day, we had a talk with Mr. Sadatomo Ichiryusai for the entire museum planning. The teacher is also a voice actor who plays the role of the mother of Chibimaruko. The performance is by Jirokichi, a rat kid. Apparently, the talk turned the rat kid into a piracy, and the tomb of the rat was just at Kaikoin, just across the Ryogoku Bridge. Time came in no time with a shy narrative. I think this good tempo matches unexpectedly with the present age. Also, it seems that there are a lot of female lecturers right now. If you are interested, you will have a free talk on the 28th of every month, so why not visit us?

 Harumi Triton Plaza 2F "Ai Green Pocket Plaza Flower, Water, Tree" is an annual mini-garden guided tour to stroll through the park with the guidance of an exclusive gardener.

This month was held on October 13th.

In the "Flower Garden", the bright red-purple Nobutton family "Nobutton" Cote D'Azur "" and the purple glossy large flower "Siconnobutton" attract attention.

The nobutton has a short stamen yellow, a long stamen is purple, and the seconnobutton has both long and short stamens.

The remnant Shirobanahagi, the pretty pale purple flowers of ancestor cyclamen "Hedelifolium" and the colony of grayheaded cuckoo are also impressive.

Purple-based "Murasakixikib", "Carostboku" Perpleia "", "amethyst sage", "Seiyo ginboku", etc. are also colorful.

The conical spikes are sweet, fragrant, mauve, white and red varieties, but the black purple "black night" is unique.

The park was a plant walk with the impression that the signs of autumn became even deeper, with deciduous tree starting to change color, led by Natsuta, and shicent oysters and Himeringo growing fruit.

 

From the left, "Hedelifolium", "Pearple", "Black Night", amethyst Sage. Squirrel

Inhabitant of a ward sports day

[Nyan,] October 10, 2017 13:00

 Today (October 9) is the day of inhabitant sports. Various sporting events were held in the vicinity of the Tsukishima Playground.

I have participated in the 5km section as a test of my hobby running skills. The guest runner is Yuko Arimori, a medalist for the second consecutive Olympic Games. What a luxurious guest!

 

Mr. Arimori, he really supports me with a loud voice that kills my voice, and this power is also boiling. At the start of elementary school students, Mr. Arimori is full of wonderful distribution like a "school teacher" in front of elementary school students who are moving freely. He heard that he has been supporting guests for nine consecutive years, and the participants who were in elementary school have already grown up.

I envy the runners who supported Mr. Arimori while running side by side.

There was also a public relations filming group, Chuo FM Radio City.

Well, to speak, looking at the back of a young junior and senior high school student who jumps out at the same time as the start, "There are many fast people! Well, uncle (I), I can't win the prize with this ... "I gave up early and ran at my own pace. The result is an unexpected prize. Oh ... Did you count the wrong number of people you thought you were running forward, or did you come before you thought by pulling it out little by little? (Result Arai!)

After the excellent award ceremony, we received prizes for the prize and had a good time.

I really want to enjoy a participatory event on the day of inhabitant sports, where various events are held with elaborate tastes.

 

 

Chuo-ku Real Treasure Hunting Event "Oedo Treasure Biden!" I'm here♪

[Edamame] 09:00 on October 7, 2017

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.


I'm with children ... Actually, I really like quizzes, brain training, mystery solving games, etc.

Some of you who read this blog

I think there are many such people, but how about?


What I'm getting caught up recently is the event called "Real Treasure Hunting".

Takarash! There's a company like this.

http://www.takarush.jp/

Solve the mystery and actually go to the place where the mystery showed.

It's about finding clues to treasure more and more.

I knew for the first time this winter, but since then.

I'm having a lot of fun.

DSC_1900-1.jpg

One of them is the "phantom cherry blossoms" that was held in Nihonbashi this spring.

http://www.takarush.jp/promo/nihonbashi2017/

I really liked how to show it to the bright final point. Fufufufufu.

It was an event that was introduced on the correspondent blog at that time.

/archive/2017/03/201731649.html


And at this year's Chuo-ku Tourism and Commerce Festival...

DSC_1918-1.jpg

Takarash! Collaboration event with

"Oedo Treasure Biden! Look for the legendary Ukiyo-e! ~」

It's started!

http://www.takarush.jp/promo/chuo2017/

Of course, Edamame is full of motivation.

I've been working hard on the first day.


Can you solve the mystery with children? Some of you may think about it.

I think there are some parts that can be overcome with ingenuity.


1: Before you go out, check the mystery itself on your home PC.

If you solve the mystery on the go, you will have to wait for the children on the spot ...

I wonder if it is better to solve the mystery itself in advance.

Brochures are distributed at ward offices and ward centers, etc.

The "Treasure Map" is posted on Takarash's website.

You can check it while you are at home in advance.

Click here to download this one. → http://www.takarush.jp/promo/chuo2017/#map_link

If you do so, you can calculate the shortest route of "in what order to go around" the place where mystery shows "".


2: We will also incorporate the fun of children.

Just being taken by parents, even children are boring.

So ... "I'm going to take that train!"

"It looks a bit tasty. Why don't you try it?"

Say to my daughter Azuki (2 years old) also loves "eat-walking gourmet snack"

(If you know what you are eating, it will be a great hint, so this photo will not be uploaded.)

"You can see the boat from the river!"

DSC_1928-1.jpg

What do you do?

Also, if the park is nearby, I will play it there.

Even if it may be a bit detour, if you incorporate a lot of fun things

I think it's a little fun.

(↑ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ This is not the only hint of "where and how did you go?" Maybe.

 The mystery solving event is everyone's promise to "prohibition of spoilage".

 You should never take away everyone's "fun to solve mysteries." )

It's a secret about solving this mystery itself! But...

It was relatively easy to solve and the number of problems was small.

It seems that even elementary school students can work on it.

In fact, it was probably an athletic meet on the weekend, so I thought it would be closed on transfer holidays.

I've encountered quite a bit around the place where mysteries point.

And I think that the number of problems is small = I can act comfortably.

It seems that you can enjoy shopping a little near "the place pointed to by mysteries" or have plenty of time.


If you unravel all mysteries and find a treasure chest ...

DSC_1933-1.jpg

1st floor of Kyobashi Edgran B1F of the Discovery Reporting Office

Let's go to the Chuo-ku Tourist Information Center!

DSC_1934-1.jpg

※Here, we took care of various things before taking the Chuo-ku sightseeing test conducted in February this year.

 I'll probably visit you before you take the sightseeing test in January next year. Thank you very much.



Let me show you the answer to the person in charge of the counter

You can get an application form, so fill in the necessary information and post it to the special post! !

That's right. Those who discover the treasure chest at this event are waiting for luxurious prizes by lottery.

http://www.takarush.jp/promo/chuo2017/#prize_link

JTB travel ticket 100,000 yen, I wonder if it's worth it ...

Dreams are big! I'm going to sleep and wait (laughs).

And as a participation prize

DSC_1944-1.jpg

One postcard from Chuo-ku.

Takarash! You can get digital items that can be collected in the dedicated site.

There were various types of postcards in Chuo-ku.

You can choose slowly at the tourist information center.


That's why the "real treasure hunt" event that enjoyed and went around the city.

It will be held from today (October 2) to November 3 (Friday).

Everyone, please try it out.
