This year, green curtains have both power saving and healing effects.

You seem to be very active.

 

Even here in Chuo-ku, if you are taking a walk

It's really a lot, whether it's a condominium or a house.

At one house in the Tsukishima area, green curtains are available from the first floor to the fourth floor.

It was like a curtain on the theater.

 

Some of the typical green curtains are bitter gourd, cucumber, and so on.

Hechima, clematis, morning glory, etc.

Kiwi also seems to be popular these days.

At Akashi Elementary School, there are bitter gourd and morning glory flowers.

It covers the wall under construction and softens your eyes.

 

This is a tower apartment in Kachidoki, between apartment Menz Kachidoki and police box.

It's chic and fashionable.

 

Chuo-ku is located in the city center, but when you enter the back street, you can see it.

Isn't it a good place to be able to meet greenery and flowers?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On July 20, Typhoon No. 6, which caused record heavy rainfall in various places at the same speed as a bicycle, is approaching the Kanto region.

I tilted my umbrella and headed to the meeting place while trying to see if it could be held.

 

We have been helping with the “Town Walking Tour” industrial course sponsored by the Chuo-ku Tourism Association.

This course is a tour of the Tsukiji Outer Market.

Tsukiji Market is the world's largest wholesale market in Tsukiji, Chuo-ku.

In the on-site market, stores based on the premise of selling wholesale, middle wholesale, and related businesses are gathered.

In the out-of-office market located in the outskirts, there are many shops for the general public and tourists.

 

Now, let's bounce back the typhoon rain clouds with the enthusiasm of the participants.

 

In this course, "Tsukiji original" of kitchen knives and knives. "Tsukipo Matsuro" of high-grade egg-yaki.

"Kibun Food Sohonten" of kneaded products. I visited Suita Shoten, a kelp and dried food.

It is a popular long-established store.

 

A craftsman who uses several types of whetstones to give sharpness to the knife.

The heat of the in-store workshop where a large amount of egg-yaki is baked by hand.

The manager who explained the diversity and potential of kneaded products with tastings.

A young husband who talked about the unexpected ecology of kelp and their commitment to quality.

 

I think about food that I eat every day.

Reliable skills to keep seeking good things and trained eye strength.

The credibility that we have built up in food was reflected in the wonderful expression of the store people.

 

After Great East Japan Earthquake, we were able to overcome the period when the flow of people declined sharply, mainly from foreign customers.

"The customer has come back again," said the owner.

Through the business in Tsukiji, you can clearly see the trends in the Japanese economy.

Everyone who took the time to explain while I was busy, thank you.

We were able to make delicious shopping.

 

Tsukiji feels a little difficult for the general public to go from the impression of a "professional workplace".

Because it is an area where professionals gather, you can meet polished topics.

 

The repair of the facilities that hurt during the earthquake has progressed, and the tour of the tuna auction in the hall will resume on the 26th.

It's early in the morning, but I'm looking forward to it.

 In the Kanto Koshin region, the rainy season began on July 9, 8 days earlier than last year, 12 days earlier than normal, and finally the summer performance.

Hydrangea is finally remnant here in the Hamarikyu Garden, and the vermilion orange nouzenzura blooms vividly on the flower shelf at the entrance of the button garden, making you feel the arrival of full-fledged summer.

In the wildflower garden at the back of the button garden, in addition to loosestrife, balloon flower Kawaranadeshiko Hagi is beginning to bloom.

In addition, you can enjoy golden lace, Kashiwaba hydrangea, Salsberg, Yabumiga in the park, and camellia fruits in unusual places.

Open every Friday and Saturday from July 15 to August 13 from 8:00 am.

How about walking around the park during a relatively cool time?

Ebizo Ichikawa, who had been modest since last year's "incident", returned to the stage for the first time in nine months, seems to be more social news than the Kabuki world in July.

That's why I'm still in a state of jet lag, and I went to noon on the 8th. The companion was an enthusiastic fan who followed the performance in London in Paris. I'm afraid I can't help but feel calm. "It's okay because the first day is open," said the outfield irresponsible. After all, the day part is sold out shortly after release! It's a great success. There are also many celebrities seen on TV in the audience. There is no doubt that it is one of the actors that "customers can call" in a box office, although there is a topicality. And when you stand on the stage, you can see "Hana" and "Aura". The Tale of Genji, a Kabukiza Theater in 2000 during the Shinnosuke era, still remembers the staggering and sweeping up in the audience for unintentionally when he appeared on stage.

The performance of the return stage is Togashi of "Kanjincho" since the Ebizo attack performance in Tokyo. It means "go back to the beginning and start again." Benkei is Danjuro and Yoshitsune is Umetama. Among the Nagauta members behind the stage, the Tachiuta Misaho is next to Mitaro of the Tateshamisen next to Mitaro of the Tateshamisen, and it seems that it is the 18th Nagaishi Ichikawa Muneya. When the five-colored banners are rolled up and Togashi appears, applause is just broken in the hall. "Waiting" fans' applause was warm. I heard a whispering voice saying, "I'm a little thin." Even so, I really sigh in the appearance of Nishiki-e. First of all, the curtain went down safely.

The daytime section is "Torii-mae" and "Yang Gui-hime", and the nighttime section is "Yoshie Kotobuki Soga", "Shunko Kagami Lion", and "Edo Yuei".

 

　

On the 26th, Chiakiraku. For inquiries, please contact Ticket Hon Shochiku 0570-000-489

In Chuo-ku, there are many buildings that have a wonderful atmosphere while getting older.

Today, I walked [Heisei-dori] from Hatchobori to Tsukiji while looking at such a stylish building.

First, near Hatchobori Station, facing [Yaesu Street] that leads to Tokyo Station, the building of [Tomojosha] shows a distinctive appearance.

It is reminiscent of the former appearance of Tokyo, and even the breath of modern merchants seems to be heard.

The building of [Kikumasamune Tokyo Branch] is located right next to Shintomicho Station.

From Showa 2 to Showa 36, it was [Shochiku headquarters].

Next to this building, there is a building where the Kyobashi Tax Office is located on the site of Shintomiza. His historical interest spreads. 

 

 Finally, the one that stands at Tsukiji 1-chome is [Miyakawa poultry chicken egg].

The famous shop packed by regular customers every day is said to have been built in 1929. The copperplate used for wall goods illuminates blue and black, leaving a stylish and stylish atmosphere.

This year (2011), we were selected as "Historic buildings" in Tokyo.

There are still many buildings in Chuo-ku that are still alive.

Enjoy walking around the town while visiting your favorite buildings.
