See the cherry blossoms

[TAKK...] March 30, 2015 14:00

As of March 28 (Saturday), the flowering status of cherry blossoms in Chuo-ku seemed to be almost buds and some places were in full bloom.

This time, I walked in Chuo-ku in search of a place where the cherry blossoms are blooming.

[The place I walked this time]

①Sakuragawa Park

Close to JR Hatchobori Station, the cherry blossoms at Sakuragawa Park were blooming conditions where you could fully enjoy the flowers.

②Near Minami Takahashi

There are only a few cherry blossoms near the bridge, but the cherry blossoms and the historic bridge match well.

It's no exaggeration to say that it's a famous place.

.

③Cherry blossoms along River Street

There is a road called River Street in Shinkawa, Chuo-ku, where there is a large tree.

It is a shrine with the tradition of Oiwa, the main character of "Tokaido Yotsuya Kaidan" of the fourth generation Nanboku Tsuruya. It was enshrined in Samoncho, Yotsuya, which was a rock residence in 1717 (1717), and moved to its current location (1-4 Echizen moat at that time) in 1879 (1879).

Torii and Momodo stone are registered as private folk cultural properties in the ward.

The cherry blossoms are also quite stunning, and you can enjoy the wonderful scenery along with the appearance of the shrine.

The cherry blossoms on the Sumida River Terrace still have a lot of buds. (As of March 28)

It is a park characterized by a slide inspired by a spine shell.

 The cherry blossoms in this park are also in full bloom, and on this day many people were cherry blossom viewing.

In the row of cherry trees extending from the north exit of Tokyo Station Yaesu to Kayabacho, the largest number of 169 cherry trees in the city are in full bloom.

Flowering has already progressed, but the "Hichihachikai Sakura Festival" is scheduled to be held from April 3 (Fri) to 5 (Sun).

There is a fun event, so I would like to visit again at that time.

Circle Presentation (Shinkawa)

[Satoken] March 11, 2015 15:00

Despite entering March, it was held on a chilly Sunday at the nearby Shinkawa Ward Hall.

 

I went to the club recital. Recitals of Nimai and Children's Music, Photography and Painting

 

There was also an exhibition, and I was impressed by the masterpieces of the local people.

Recommended tour of Tokyo Stock Exchange Arrows

[Silver] March 2, 2015 09:00

I went to Tokyo Stock Exchange Arrows for a tour.

This is only available on weekdays, but it is a great place to study the history of the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

I got off at Kayabacho Station and strolled around the area.

The Mizuho Bank Kabuto-cho Branch, located in the vicinity, is "the birthplace of banks that were predecessors of Daiichi National Bank."

 

We entered the building of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, completed the reception, and entered the Securities Archives Hall.

I saw a lot of photos and objects such as bells used for meetings.

I also saw the photos of the Minister of Finance at that time, and felt very nostalgic. These people have led Japan to a high economy.

In the quiz, I was able to learn how to communicate information at that time. It's interesting, isn't it?

Next, on the 2nd floor, there was a photo of Ms. Charlotte Kate Fox, the role of Elly, who was familiar with NHK's morning drama "Massan", visited the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

Oh, it's really neat and wonderful person with a smile. 

Unfortunately, photography was prohibited here, so please check with your own eyes.

 

On the 2nd floor, we proceeded through the tour corridor.

In the market center covered with glass cylinders with a diameter of 17 meters, large rings showing the stock prices of each company were spinning around.

Souvenir T-Shirts, umbrellas, mobile straps, etc. for the Tokyo Stock Exchange were also sold.

 

After the tour, we visited Kabuto Shrine, a symbol of the promotion of exchange officials, visited Nihonbashi Post Office, Nomura Securities, etc., and enjoyed delicious tea in Nihonbashi.

Please refer to this page for details. I think it's good for children to study during the spring break.
