Christmas in Ginza 2018 Animals

[Silver] Nov. 30, 2018 12:00

 In the latter half of November, the street corners of Ginza were gorgeous illuminations and windows and displays of each shop, and it was a season when the heart was excited.

Santa is coming to the city. A song that comes on a sleigh led by a reindeer strokes his ears.

Currently, Ginza is holding a fun project for 2018WinterSeason.

One of them is Window Display, which each store develops with elaborate tastes. 

Kotoshi enjoys a walk in Ginza with a feeling of healing by the animals talking to at the large windows of each store. We enjoyed strolling around the street corner of Ginza 5-chome.

Sakiko Kiyono solo exhibition [Gallery Ginza]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] Nov. 29, 2018 09:00

This is an introduction of an exhibition held on the 2nd floor of "Gallery Ginza", a gallery in Ginza 2-chome.

sonati201801.JPG

This is the first solo exhibition by Sakiko Kiyono, who lives in Chuo-ku and holds a solo exhibition in Chuo-ku.

sonati201802.JPG

It is entitled "Knitting, weaving, and spinning."

sonati201803.JPG

Mr. Kiyono said that he was able to enter from the so-called "knitting" sweater, and expanded the range of his work to wire races.

sonati201804.JPG

You have a lot of certified instructor qualifications for knitting, wire laces and accessories.

sonati201805.JPG

This time, I learned for the first time that the wire is also described as "knitting".

sonati201807.JPG

All of the works on display were delicate, beautiful, and the fine details of the nerves were meticulous.

sonati201806.JPG

No, it's just something that makes me think it would be fun to make such a variety of works alone.

sonati201808.JPG

At the venue, a race jewelry and accessory kit by Mr. Kiyono is also sold, so that you can make your own work and enjoy it.

sonati201810.JPG

It is an exhibition that can be enjoyed just by looking at it.

Please drop in.

sonati201809.JPG

The period is from Tuesday, November 27 to December 3 (Monday).

Please note that the time is from 11:00 to 19:00 and the last day is until 17:30.

sonati201811.JPG

Regarding the photography in the gallery, Mr. Kiyono himself gave a kind and polite explanation of the production method of the work.

Thank you very much

"Sensha bill stamp & street name quiz rally"-Edamame version, how to turn in one day-

[Edamame] Nov. 25, 2018 14:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.

 
The other day, it started on November 10th (Sat).

Participated in the "Sensha Bill Stamp & Town Name Quiz Rally".

DSC_4218-1.jpg

Collect stamps placed throughout the city.

And let's go around the quiz about the street name.

For more information, please click here.

http://www.chuo-kanko.or.jp/#we-page-single-entry?spot=247604

You can see this page.

There is also an introduction to "Routes that go around all points efficiently"

Please take a look at it.

DSC_4213-1.jpg

 

That's why ... this course may be okay for others.

There are two problems for Edamame.

・With children, I want to make effective use of the morning as much as possible.

This recommended "routes that go around all points"

The starting point is Tsukishima.

Tsukishima Monja Association Promotion Association, the stamp point of Tsukishima, is open at 12:30.

As a child who is clearly expected to be frustrating, I want to go around the morning course more! I thought it was.

・I want to set the start near the Hamacho area.

・・I'm sorry. I'm a resident.

That's why in this article, it goes against the recommendation of the tourist association (laughs).

Introducing "Edamame & Daughter Azuki (a three-year-old child who walks quite a bit) felt like this."

I will also write the passing time, so I hope that it will be especially helpful for children.

(Digital images are convenient~. It's easy to refer to because the shooting time is recorded (laughs).
 

Well, when I leave my home and walk for a while ...

Arrived at the first stamp point, Hakozaki-cho "T-CAT (Tokyo City Air Terminal)".

(Arrival time 10:57 ... 30 minutes earlier if you don't have Azuki's petit ear!)

This is a 100 yen shop, a drugstore, a select shop for children's clothing.

And there are McDonald's, etc.

As a child-rearing generation living in the local area, even if there is no business going to Haneda or Narita by limousine bus

It's a very useful facility. Actually.

DSC_4210-1.jpg

If you go to the second floor, it's already a Christmas tree near the stamp stand.

It's just around the end of the year. It's scary.

But it makes me feel better to see gorgeous things.

DSC_4211-1.jpg

And there was a stamp stand in the space between Cafe Doku Rie and the hall.

DSC_4212-1.jpg

At this height, it is very helpful because the child can push it on his own!

 

If you leave here, just walk to the Ningyocho Shopping Street Cooperative Office.

The entrance to the office is just on the side street of Daikanonji Temple.

(Arrival time: 11:14)

DSC_4214-1.jpg

The quiz question is affixed to the entrance of the office.
 

After that, I was worried, but Azuki said, "Aru!"

I will do my best to walk to Yagenbori Fudoin, the next quiz spot.

(Arrival time: 11:37)

DSC_4216-1.jpg

The quiz question is affixed to main hall up the stairs.

Let's check the quiz after you visit everyone.

Of course, I also visited Azuki.

(About the difference between shrines and temples, and about whether or not to hit Kashiwate

 I would like to teach 3-year-old Azuki as a future task.)
 

After that, it is just a short distance from Yagenbori Fudoin.

2 stations by train from Higashi-Nihonbashi Station on the Toei Asakusa Line.

Move to Nihombashi Station.

Click here for the next stamp spot.

DSC_4220-1.jpg

This is the Nihonbashi Tourist Information Center.

(Arrival time: 12:02)

DSC_4219-1.jpg

It was a stamp stand at a high place like the Senshafuda stamp rally last March.

Both the stamp mat and the stamp itself were not connected by chains, etc.

"You can use the chair nearby as a desk," a warm offer from the staff.

・・Thank you very much!

And the brochure I found here.

DSC_4221-1.jpg

It's a "real mystery solving game empty exhibition"!

https://nazoxnazo.com/tokyo_ex/

A new mystery solving event, including the Nihonbashi area.

Edamame, a correspondent who loves solving mysteries, is likely to be held soon.

You may find a new event if you take a look at the Nihonbashi Information Center, Chokochoko.

I would like to take a look at it regularly.
 

Here ...

"I'm hungry, Pekopeko!"

"Ah, what do you want to eat?" "Hanbagu!"

That's why I've taken care of you before

Head to "Landmarks" on the 5th floor of the new building, Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store

This was the birthplace of "Children's Lunch".

(including waiting for the restaurant)

I think you've spent about an hour here.)

DSC_4224-1.jpg

After eating, you will reach the entrance to the main building of Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store and Honkan.

Mr. Lion was wearing a "beware of fire."

It's already winter.
 

And walk for a while

Arrived at Nihonbashi Information Center on the 1st floor of Cored Muromachi and 1st basement!

(Arrival time: 13:04)

DSC_4225-1.jpg

This was also a tall counter.

Moreover, it was set up in an area far from the staff ...

Hold the azuki with one hand and press the stamp together with the other hand.

It was a long time.

15 kilograms with one hand. Oh, yes. 。 。

DSC_4227-1.jpg

By the way, there was also a model of a cruise ship coming out of Nihonbashi Pier next to it.
 

And if you push it safely, 3 stations from Mitsukoshimae Station on the Ginza Line.

When you arrive at Ginza Station, it is the next quiz spot.

Head to "Ginfo (Ginza Tourist Information Center)" on the 1st floor of Tokyu Plaza Ginza.

(Arrival time: 13:21)

DSC_2746-1.jpg

Check with the staff here.

"I'm sorry. How long does it take to walk from here to Tsukiji?"

The distance between Ginza and Tsukiji is a walking distance, so I asked ...

"I think it will take 20 to 30 minutes, but you're with your child, right?

It might cost more.

"Platto Tsukiji" closes at 14:00, so it's better to use a train. "

That's why 2 stations take the Hibiya Line from Ginza. I'm heading to Tsukiji.

From Tokyu Plaza Ginza, it's easy to get on the Hibiya Line.
 

Tsukiji on Saturday, which came after a long time ...

Even after the market move, he was a great man.

I could walk normally from the station to the intersection of Tsukiji 4-chome.

After entering the out-of-market area, people were so terrible that I had a hard time walking with children.

This is the next stamp spot "General Information Center Plat Tsukiji".

(It closed at 13:45 at 14:00, so it was barely enough.)

This was also a high stamp stand, so it was a strategy to "hold with one hand and assist with stamp with one hand".

I forgot to take a picture of the stamp stand because it weighs too much.

DSC_4230-1.jpg

Instead, in front of Platto Tsukiji, there is an event-like sale of delicacies. Since it was 500 yen, "I'm going to give you a gift to my uncle! (by Azuki) "I tried it. And he said, "I got rid of it."

DSC_4231-1.jpg

Take a break with freshly squeezed apple juiceApple.
 

Let's walk again after the energy is filled.

While looking at the "place" already in construction mode.

DSC_4237-1.jpg

I'll walk to Akashicho for a while.

I felt that there was a lot of distance here, but I wonder if I can't help it.
 

We arrived at the next quiz spot.

It is Akashicho "Chuo-ku Local Museum Time Dome Akashi".

(Arrival time: 14:18)

DSC_4241-1.jpg

The sixth floor of this building is Time Dome Akashi.

Since the museum is closed Monday, you can't see the quiz here that day. Be careful!

And here's a restroom break.

My diaper doesn't come off yet, so I'm a kid who bothers my mother's head.

Because it is "Time Dome Akashi" which is a public facility, it can be used for multipurpose toilets.

There is also a diaper changing sheet.

It is safe even for small children.
 

And next to Tsukishima.

Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, there is also a sidewalk.

DSC_4245-1.jpg

Both stairs and bicycle slopes are properly attached along the river, so it is safe.

(I know that there is a sidewalk, but it's secret that I was impatient for a moment that I should go up from where.)

DSC_4247-1.jpg

A good view of the boat!

But there's quite a bit of a bicycle running fast.

Be careful about safety when walking with children! Oh, yes.
 

As soon as you cross the Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, a stamp spot on Tsukishima

It is "Tsukishima Monja Promotion Association Cooperative".

(Arrival time around 15:00 ... I forgot to take a picture ...)

This was a low desk and a chair.

It's easy for children to push. Thank you very much.
 

From there, take a train at Tsukishima Station on the Yurakucho Line.

After getting off at Ginza 1-chome Station, head to Yaesu Underground Shopping Center.

・・It was unexpectedly long!

It may have been better to attach the Yaesu underground shopping mall when going around the Nihonbashi area.

Either way, you may have decided to walk as it is ...

I managed to arrive at the stamp spot on Main Avenue.

(Arrival time: 15:30)

DSC_4251-1.jpg

It was also a high level.

I survived the operation of "Holding one hand and assisting one hand stamp". Yeah. It's heavy.

 

All you have to do is walk to the goal.

DSC_4254-1.jpg

Arrived at the Chuo-ku Tourist Information Center on the 1st floor of Kyobashi Edgran at the goal point! ! !

(Arrival time: 15:48)

DSC_4253-1.jpg

Clear the last stamp and quiz here.
 

DSC_4258-1.jpg

"Original sticker with stamp pattern" which is a product that won the stamp.

(Do you think this is quite nice with bright colors?)

DSC_4257-1.jpg

We received the quiz correct answer prize "Original mini drawstring with stamp pattern".

(Because it's for 2 people, there are two kinds of prints.

 I was able to receive both types.)

And when I answer the questionnaire, I draw a lottery and give a luxurious prize ...

All of them are "Hazure".

Well, it's hard to hit.

I was worried about the Ginza Prize's "Chopsticks & incense set".

The Akashicho Prize “Clear File & Constellation Quick View Kit” is also available.

I thought it would be possible to use it when the azuki got a little bigger.
 

Nothing.

It was a good exercise after walking around for a day.

I was able to go to places where I don't usually go.

If you don't have children, you will have more room than we have followed.

You may be able to eat more delicious food on the way.
 

"Sensha Bill Stamp & Town Name Quiz Rally" is until January 14 (Monday) next year. You can enjoy it over a long period of time, so please enjoy the whole area of Chuo-ku by all means.

※In addition to the year-end and New Year holidays, there are periods when stamps cannot be installed or quizzes cannot be posted due to facility closures.

In addition, stamp installation time varies depending on the facility.

For details, please refer to the following website.

GINZA Christmas PLACE 2018

[Sam] Nov. 25, 2018 12:00

DSC07819ELS'.jpgDSC07706RS'G.jpg On November 22, the Christmas event "GINZA Christmas PLACE 2018" will start at GINZA PLACE (Ginza 5).

Period November 22-December 25

Lighting of exterior lighting: 16:00~24:00

The exterior wall, which is inspired by the technique of "watermark carving" of traditional crafts facing the Ginza 4-chome intersection, is colored with colorful special designs that express red ornaments and malls sparkling with silver and gold, reminiscent of snow and Christmas trees.

The dynamic production, which expresses how the tree is decorated every hour, invites people to the city to the Christmas mood.

Decorations are also applied to various parts of the hall, including the entrance, and Christmas-only campaigns are held at each store to excite the holiday season.
