I went to amazake Yokocho in Ningyocho on the cold Saturday of the twenty-third.

The name of amazake Yokocho is said to be derived from the fact that Owari-ya sold amazake at the intersection of amazake Yokocho and Ningyo-dori.

At present, Mr. Futaba, a tofu shop, can serve amazake at amazake Yokocho.

There was a bench in front of the shop, and on this day there were people who were warming up by drinking amazake in the cold.

And what is famous in amazake is Chiyoda-ku, but there are two sweet liquor stores, Mikawaya and Amanoya, located in front of Kanda Myojin Suijinmon.

"Mikawaya" seems to have been around since the early Edo period, and "Amanoya" has been around since the late Edo period.

There are people who drink amazake deliciously here too.

It's cold, but why don't you warm your body in amazake during the cold?

At the municipal bicycle parking lot from January 5 this year

Temporary use has started.

Immediately at the Bizenbashi Bicycle Parking Lot, I tried to use it.

　First, take a bicycle into the bicycle parking lot, then turn to the vacant number 33.

I'll put the front wheel of the bicycle. Then, in about 10 seconds, "Gachan" and the front wheel were cut.

Rock.

　I'll go back after shopping for about an hour, and then go to the tollgate.

　Enter your number 33 in the number frame.

　Because it is free, the front wheels of the bicycle are released immediately.

　I was able to embark on my bicycle.

　It's still the first attempt, and the staff is waiting.

　When I ask, the first two hours are free.

After that, 100 yen will be required every 8 hours.

　In other words, after placing a bicycle first

It's 100 yen up to 10 hours.

I was kind enough to teach you.

I've got a lot of luggage after shopping.

It's dangerous to go home by bicycle late at night.

I happened to meet my friends and drink alcohol.

It's very convenient.

　Let's enjoy your bicycle life safely using the bicycle parking lot.

For details, please see the December 1st edition of the ward bulletin.

The Doburoku Festival is an event derived from Niiname-no-Matsuri, which appreciates the good harvest of new grains, and was held at Koami Shrine in Nihonbashikoamicho on November 27 (Friday).

This festival is especially popular as the "Doburoku Festival" because it acts to worshipers in Doburoku (Nigori sake made from fresh rice harvested in the year at Shinryoda), which is offered to Jinmae along with new grains.

On the day of the festival, a festival was held in shrine hall from 9 o'clock in the morning, and a long line was formed due to the limited distribution of a bottle of sacred wine and the mischief of good luck.

Koami Shrine is enshrined at Koami Manpukuji Temple built in the Muromachi period, and has been worshiped as a god of fortune and prosperity of business, which is said to have originated from Inari Shrine. After the visit, Mr. Miko advised me to doburoku.

In the past, when the daughter of filial piety was in trouble with the medicine to give to the sick mother, the god told me that `` save the mother with the mizuku made with sosuki ''. It is said that the daughter did filial piety to her mother. "Mimizuku" is based on "Susuki", a representative of the seven herbs in autumn, based on the Doburoku Festival in November, and the benefits of exorcism and thriving business are said to be "Tsuku" to their own "Mi" (body). It seems to have been awarded.

In addition, after noon, "Sato Kagura Dance" from the nationally designated Intangible Cultural Property was dedicated to Kamimae.

The "Doburoku Festival" next year (2016) of Koami Shrine, one of the two major doburoku festivals in Kanto, will be November 28 (Monday).

The Nihonbashi Honmachi area prospered as a drug wholesale district that began in the Edo period, and many pharmaceutical companies are still gathering today. On October 16 (Fri), the "Yaku ancestor patron Festival" was held in Nihonbashi Honmachi.

The Yaku ancestor patron Festival originated in 1908 (Meiji 41) when the Tokyo Pharmaceutical Trade and Commerce Association (now the Tokyo Pharmaceutical Association) welcomed the spirit of the god of medicine from Gojo Ten Shrine (Taito Ward) and started in 1929 (Showa 4), and the scale of the festival wasancestor patron. In 1954, a shrine hall was built on the roof of the newly completed Showa Yakugaku Building in 1983, and the festival was inherited.

At 13:30, a ceremony was held at Yaku ancestor patron on the roof of the Showa Yaku Trade Building, attended by members of the supporting members. After that, general worship was held from 15:30 to 18:30, and a long line of worshipers was formed in front of the Showa Yaku Trade Building. It is said that "Shinko", a lucky decoration, will be distributed to all members, and "votive lanterns" with the name of the member are arranged and lit. On the street of the Showa Yaku Trade Building, a special stall was set up, and the sound of the flute and drums of "Obayashi" was excited by the festival.

The worshipers were served with sacred wine and soup flour, as well as many pharmaceutical companies offering prizes, and those who won the lottery were given "Fukubukuro". The neighborhood of Nihonbashi Honmachi was crowded with people visiting medicine ancestor patron.

I wish you all the best in sound health and next year. I'd like to go to see you again next year.

If you haven't been this year, why don't you come next year?
