Minato Park, 2-chome Minato, Chuo-ku, has been developed.

In the past, it was a simple park with benches on the lawn, but it seems that it has become a hydrophilic park with a slope and can also be reached on the Sumida River terrace.

It's a sign.

Construction on the Sumida River Terrace side has not been completed, and it seems to be completed at the end of March 2017.

The flow of the Sumida River is a wonderful place.

Kamado-type benches that can be cooked in the event of a disaster (normally open-air fire or cooking is prohibited.)

Solar lighting is also available.

On the other side is the long-established pickle shop "Kitafuku".

I bought yuzu radish pickles.

 

 

On December 24, when I went to Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store, the central hall atrium on the first floor of the main building was decorated very beautifully.

And there was just a live pipe organ performance.

It's a beautiful performance.

We introduce it every year, but this year the Oedo wholesaler festival, which is held on "Shindo-dori" between Bakurocho and Yokoyamacho, has come.

　

The date is limited to one day from 9:00 to 16:00 on Sunday, December 4

This wholesaler's sale is usually a day when a wholesale specialty store sells specially, so there's no doubt that the product will be sold.
　

Products include men's and women's clothing, shoes and bags, towels, ties, kimonos, umbrellas, etc.
　

　

If you have time, please take a look.

Today (November 14), I accidentally passed through Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi.

A Christmas tree is already set up at the entrance of the new building.

　
When I entered inside, the Japanese garden was always in front of the familiar statue of the heavenly woman.
　
A pond is built in the center, and the surrounding area is a garden.
　
A picture of a heavenly woman is drawn on the bottom of the pond.

In addition, chairs were prepared so that you could eat Uji tea and Japanese sweets from Tsuruya Yoshinobu while watching the garden.

But very unfortunately, this event will end on November 15.

I'm sorry for the late information

　

 

 

Today (October 20), I went to "Bettara City".

It's very cold in October when "Betara City" is often October! There are many days, but today's day was a warm day with temperatures rising to about 27 degrees Celsius, and it was not cold at all with a single shirt from evening to night.

This year, I came from Sugimori Shrine.

Kagura was performed on the stage of the shrine.

And at the Bon Dance Festival, people wearing happi coat of "Betara Ondo" were dancing.

There are many shops that are pickled in Betara, but roughly speaking, there are two trains, "Kinhisa" and "Shin Takaya".

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　"Kinhisa" is orange happi coat

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　"Shin Takaya" is a blue happi coat

This year, I bought one piece without skin at both shops.
　

　

In addition, a long-established store in Nihonbashi also has stalls and sells for sale.

At Meijiya, coffee was cheap, so I bought it in a big bag.

I bought Tsukudani in "Kaishin" and "Funasa".

Fir laver was a bargain at "Yamamoto Nori".

In addition, bargain products were lined up at many shops such as "Civilizationdo", "Ninben", and "Eel Ise Sada".　

After passing through Takarada Ebisu Shrine, I went to Umekatei to buy "Kiriyokan" and "Kiri Sansho".

Unfortunately, I couldn't buy it.

 

 

　Walk around Ginza 4-chome, Akihiwa. Cross the intersection from Wako.　

A different atmosphere than usual. The head of the lion statue in Mitsukoshi is black.

　It's a great discovery.

　What a Lion ... he was wearing a big black hat.

　It's not an ancient song of Enoken.

"I'm the most mobo in the village ... Lloyd Glasses like Yamatakashape."

I remembered the song of "Stylish Man".

　

　A customer who found a lion statue on a hat. Don't touch the hat, stroke your feet

Rush your face. It feels like there is more contact with the skin than before.

　

　From now on, Lion　　

　Do you want to drink bura-Brazil coffee in Ginza?

　The lion statue of this hat　

It seems to be an event from September 7th.

From now on, meeting in front of the lion statue will be fun.

　The Mitsukoshi Ginza store is located at the Ginza 4-chome intersection.
