Tsukiji Outer Market is lined with famous shops with professional origami.
Not only the finest ingredients and rarely available ingredients, but also most items related to "food", such as cooking utensils and tableware, is truly "food Wonderland".

Usually, there is little to say "Kan'an" or "Kan'an", but only this day is special.

The gem of each store's specialty will be a half price.

That's why it was very crowded on this day.
So, I will tell you some of the back tricks that I participated every time.

●First of all, get the "Flyer of Half Price Product List"!

It seems that it is undecided whether to distribute it in advance, but on the day, flyers with a list of half-value products at each store will be distributed at rest areas and in front of Lawson at intersections.
The half price market starts at 10 a.m., but most stores are open earlier.
Go early, get a flyer first, and check the items you want.
And I'll also check the location of the shop.
The important thing is to prioritize.
The most congestion is expected to be Terry Ito's home's egg-yaki "Marutake" and egg-yaki "Tsukipo Matsuro".
It's a long line in no time.
Most of the half price products are limited in number, so while you are shopping elsewhere, the items you are looking for may be sold out.
Depending on the limited number, first of all, let's go to the store where you absolutely want this.

●Stretch your legs for a break

There are free rest areas and shops where you can sit down, but it's very crowded.
If you want to calm down and take a rest, let's go to Ginza.
Even if you say Ginza, you can walk 5-6 minutes to Higashi Ginza Station.
"Mother Reef" at the end of "Iwate Ginga Plaza" is a tea and waffle shop, and all-you-can-eat waffle for lunch.
In front of Kabukiza, which is under construction, is Bunmeido, and beyond that is famous for omurice, "YOU".

If the weather is nice, go to Tsukiji River Park, which leads from the back of Honganji to Shintomicho.
Adjacent to the campus of St. Luke's College of Nursing, there are lots of greenery, lawns, and even birds singing, and the hustle and bustle of the market is a different world.
Therefore, while checking "today's results", the ultimate backwasher is to take a break with "Yonemoto Coffee" coffee that has been taken out.

A rare opportunity to get gem selected by food professionals at half prices.
Everyone, please go to "Spring Half Price Market" in Tsukiji Outer Market.

 

 

 

　Even though the cherry blossoms fall, the season of flowers lasts.

　At Tsukiji River Kameibashi Park near Chuo-ku government office, azaleas are beginning to bloom.

　A little congratulations with white and red on the petals (?) There was also an azalea.

　"Tsukiji River Kamei Bridge Park" has a Pele Near Garden, and it seems that about 75 kinds of flowers can be seen.

　Surrounded by tall buildings, it is a place where cars come and go on the Metropolitan Expressway, which was built by reclaiming the Tsukiji River.

I'm grateful that there is a park where you can relax.

　 　

 

As a whole, the azalea flowers are small and cute.

There was also a wisteria trellis in the park, but it seemed that the flowers bloomed.　　　　

 

 

 

I don't think the planting of the open space of the Asahi Shimbun is very famous, but it blooms wonderfully in spring.

 

As of April 21, Yae-zakura, Azalea and rhododendron are competing in the upper right corner.

 

Please take a look at the gorgeous appearance of rhododendron. Azalea is like a flower carpet after this.

 

Please go a little further and drop in for the verse near you.

 

 

The cherry blossoms around the area have begun to fall, and the feeling of heading is Golden Week!  

 

　Located surrounded by Ginza Capital Hotel, Tsukiji Honganji Temple and St. Luke's College of Nursing, Tsukiji River Park is a green oasis.　Following the blossoming of cherries, Hananoki and Yoshino cherry tree since the end of March, it is now called apple flowers.

 

White and neat Japan globeflower,

 

"Karin (Karin)"

 

And on the promenade leading to Harumi-dori St., "American dogwood" tells the arrival of spring and early summer.

 

Please drop in when shopping at St. Luke Hospital or Tsukiji Market.

The walk will be fun.

 

 

 

Hello everyone.　Today we will show you the flowers of the Hamarikyu Gardens, especially the stunning Yae-zakura.

Enter the garden and in front of Shinsenza Kamoba.　From the left you can see "fringed iris", the yellow flower in the center is "Japan globeflower", and the white flower is a wild strawberry. (All photos are as of April 21.)

The bridge to the teahouse in Nakajima is under restoration.　However, splendid cherry blossoms are blooming on the left side of the embankment.

Then, let's walk on the outside promenade. "Fugen elephant" at the foot of Mt. Fujimi.

If you follow the road, you can see Yae-zakura such as Sekiyama and Kazuha.

And some elegant sweet scent drifts.　It's "Surugadai smell."

Then, about 30 meters before the seaside bridge is the rare Yae-zakura, such as Gyoiko, Sekiyama, Turmeric and Kazuha.

Let's go left in front of the canola flower field.　Buttons are beginning to bloom.

I think the best time to see peony is until mid-May, but is Yae-zakura until April 27?

Please go out and enjoy it. For inquiries, please contact Hamarikyu Garden at 03-3541-0200.
