Taro Okamoto's "Young Clock Tower" Enjoyed in Ginza


Hello. I'm Hanes, an active correspondent.
For a long time, correspondent activities have been around for a long time, but the cheerfulness of spring has increased opportunities to go out.

Nowadays, when I collect information on SNS, I feel that many people have posted the Tower of the Sun (written by Taro Okamoto) at Expo'70 Commemorative Park in Osaka.
I also took advantage of this and went to see Taro Okamoto's work that can be enjoyed in Chuo-ku.
That's about 8m "Young Clock Tower" in Sukiyabashi Park!
It's surprising that there is Okamoto's work in the city of Ginza.

When you hear Sukiyabashi, many people think of "Your name is".
In the park, there is a monument written by the author, Kazuo Kikuta, saying, "I'm here in Sukiyabashi."

The history of Sukiyabashi since the Edo period is engraved on the back of the monument, so if you like history, please check it out!

As you approach the clock tower at the back of the park, you can see that the clock is made of CITIZEN and is marked with "TARO".

At night, the clock tower is lit up, creating a fantastic atmosphere.
When you pass nearby after sunset, please enjoy the scenery unique to night.♪
