Let's go to Tsukiji on May 18th!
~ Projection Mapping and Special Visiting Notice ~
Hello. It's Hanes.
The other day I visited Tsukiji for the first time in a long time, but despite the morning of weekdays, it was crowded with tourists from overseas, and I once again witnessed the charm of Tsukiji, which attracts many people.
Therefore, this time, we will deliver seasonal information that will make you want to visit Tsukiji even if you have visited Tsukiji before or not!
First of all, on May 18th, at Tsukiji Honganji Temple, which is known for its distinctive appearance of ancient Indian style, an event that can be enjoyed free of charge "Projection Mapping in Tsukiji Honganji Tsukiji Modern Japan dawned with foreign settlements-Ukiyo-e, Nishiki-e, and recorded images-" will be held.
Projection mapping is projected in three times at 18:30, 19:30, and 20:30, with the theme of Tsukiji settlement, the historical background of the Tsukiji area and the attractiveness of the area such as education and cultural development It is a content that you can experience.
In addition to projection mapping, there are plenty of events such as storytelling, marche, stage performances, charity corners and workshops.
I think this will be an event that you can't miss!
On the other hand, renovation work and restoration of Benzaiten's tooth black lions are underway at Hata Shrine until the end of August.
During that time, the main hall enshrines the Benzaiten Reinspection Act and the Benzaiten Mi image of deity, which are not normally open to the public.
I would like to explain in words because I refrained from taking pictures of main hall, but the "Benzaiten Rewards curtain" is a curtain that is displayed on the back of the lion when it is carried at a summer festival, and it is a substitute that cannot be seen except when the lion is carried.
Seven Lucky Gods's Benzaiten is widely known for having a biwa, but the Benzaiten depicted in this curtain is armed with eight arms.
And "Benzaiten Go image of deity" is enshrined at the corner of the lion, and it is rarely open to the public.
Visit Tsukiji on May 18th and enjoy both projection mapping at Tsukiji Honganji and special visit at Haji Shrine.
