Smile at Kochi Antenna Shop
When I say next year, the demon will laugh, but can you just make one cheek laugh? I'm intimidating myself. But since this story is related to the drama from April, I guess it's a big laugh.
Yes, the main character of NHK Asadora from next spring is modeled by Tomitaro Makino, a botanist from Kochi Prefecture!
In Kochi Prefecture's antenna shop Marugoto Kochi, related exhibitions and sales of related products have begun.
The place is Ginza 1-chome, the entrance facing Sotobori-dori St., and there are no Kochi people who do not know! The statue of Sakamoto Ryoma welcomes you.
The whole smile of Kochi
Actually, I was born in Kochi City, Kochi Prefecture. I grew up looking up at Kochi Castle. If you hear Tomitaro Makino as a Kochi prefecture person, you can't wait for spring. You have to look at related goods as soon as possible! I went out.
I visited Kochi for the first time when it was just opened. My mother who came to play told me for a long time after leaving my hometown. At that time, we had Tosa's specialty, straw-baked bonito, at the restaurant "TOSA DINIG Okiku" on the second floor. I was disappointed with the sliced bonito tataki at the supermarket, and I was very satisfied with the thick-cut authentic bonito tataki. Since then, in Tosa City on the first floor, I think of Kochi City's specialty, Sunday Market, and I'm sorry for Niyaya, nostalgic products and new products! And shopping.
This time, I reunited with Tomitaro Makino's smile at Tosazo on the first basement floor.
In the back of the sake brewery where Tosa's famous sake is lined up, Tomitaro Makino jumps out of the poster!
The squirrels, which are set up diagonally, seem to have Tosa's gloomy appearance.
Books such as plant art books are available, and there are various related products, so you can purchase them. A botanical postcard is a really precise, academic and lively picture. I have what I bought when I returned to Kochi before, but I am sorry to use it and keep it at hand. I feel like I have a page of the botanical picture book. According to the shop, it is said that the number of items will still increase in the future, so I'm looking forward to it!
There are many tourist pamphlets in Kochi Prefecture, and some people can consult.
Of course, I think it's fine to moisten your throat with Tosa's famous sake and take a closer look at where your cheeks are loose. At the entrance to the basement, you will also be greeted by a large panel such as Mr. Yoshida, who smiles with a smile from a certain station "Tavern Wandering". He is also from Kochi Prefecture, isn't he?
A little PR
By the way, a little PR of Makino Botanical Garden in Kochi Prefecture.
When I returned home in May 2022, I took a walk after a long time. The photo is from that time. It seems that 2022 is the 160th anniversary of Makino's birth, and Makino's panels appeared everywhere in the park. This smile on the poster seems to have lived a very difficult life, but if you pointed such a smile, you will not be able to complain. In the park, rare plants and plants related to Makino are grown, and if you live in Kochi, you will buy an annual pass and go there.
Elementary school students in Kochi City must have visited Makino Botanical Garden once on excursions and social tours. That's the case.
Compared to my memory when I was in elementary school (10 years ago), I wonder if the facilities such as the outdoors, greenhouses, and exhibition halls were much better maintained, so it was so spacious? I thought it. The image of a greenhouse in a dense tree was refreshing, with a small hill and observation deck overlooking the city. On this day of May, it was best to take a walk due to the light cloudy after the rain, but I thought it would be hard if it was fine.
Godaisan, where the botanical garden is located, is home to Chikurin-ji Temple (Shikoku Sacred Ground No. 31) where there was a monk sung in Yosakoi-bushi, saying "I saw a monk's five-storied pagoda buying." Although it is a little far from the city center, it was convenient to use a tour bus from Kochi Station and Maiyu Bus (MY Yu Bus).
In Chuo-ku, people from all over the country have gathered since the opening of Edo, and there are many antenna shops like modern Nakayashiki. Anyone from anywhere will smile on nostalgic tastes and goods at the antenna shop, and the dramas where local celebrities appear will be enjoyed while adding various tsukkomi.
Well, what kind of model will we show, Mr. Tomitaro Makino?
In addition, we received the consent of Kochi as a whole in posting the article.
