From the word 9 (ku) 2 (tsu), the day when the women's shoes specialty store "Diana" in Ginza wants to establish in 1992.
This doesn't mean there's a big event, but it's a great deal, so I tried to go to work with different shoes.♪

The relationship with shoes seems to be surprisingly deep, such as the birthplace of the shoe industry in Chuo Ward.

In addition, we must not forget "Ita-e Colored Osensei's Introductory Table", a cultural property of the central inhabitant of a ward.
Shotaro Hanayagi, the role of Sensei, dedicated to the Jizo-do hall on the banks of Nipponbashinishi, when performing this work at Meijiza in 1938.
I drew Komura Saitai, who lived in Nihonbashi Hinokimonocho.

The other day, the schedule of the next year's Chuo-ku Tourism Certification (February 9) and the theme ("To 1964 and 2020": hot spots, events, etc. triggered by the old and new competitions) were announced.
There are only 5 months left until the test, so I would like to check it again for a review of cultural property issues ^^

On this day of 1900, a public telephone that had been only available at telephone stations and telephone stations until then was installed on the street for the first time!
The place is on the premises of both Ueno and Shimbashi stations.
And as early as the following month, the first outdoor public telephone booth appeared at the base of Kyobashi.
The restored Kyobashi public telephone booth is now available in Glover Garden, Nagasaki Prefecture.

At that time, "automatic telephones" displayed on American street phones were translated directly and called "automatic telephones".
Please take a look when you visit Nagasaki.♪

September 12 is the Waterway Anniversary (the day of the establishment of the Japan Coast Guard's Marine Information Department).
The background of this anniversary establishment is relatively complicated, so I will try to sort out the changes.

August 1869: Establishment of the Ministry of Defense (section of the Navy and Army) in March of the following year
July 28, 1871: Separation of the Ministry of Defense between the Naval Department and the Department of War (five stations including the Fourth Waterway Bureau whose mission is to create sea maps)
July 28, 1941: Established July 28, 70th anniversary of the establishment of the waterway club on the day of the establishment of the waterway club.
1971: Taking advantage of the 100th anniversary of its founding, the Chinese calendar was converted to the solar calendar, and September 12 was established as the day of its founding (= Waterway Memorial Day).

(Monument of "Japan Sea Map and the Birthplace of Marine Survey" in front of the government building of the Tokyo National Taxation Bureau.)

If you would like to know more about the changes in the names of the departments of "Waterway Bureau", "Waterway Dormitory", "Waterway", and "Ocean Information Department" and the origin of the waterway anniversary, please refer to the Japan Coast Guard Marine Information Department "Waterway Memorial Day".

This monument is also introduced in the official text of the Chuo-ku Tourism Certification, "Chuo-ku Monoshiri Encyclopedia", but I was set up here every time in 1871, "The Japan Coast Guard Marine Information Department The Ministry of Defense Navy Department Waterway Bureau, the predecessor of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare."
However, this year, when background knowledge has increased, it will definitely be remembered.♪

Although it is a maniac spot that has not been featured very much, it is also related to shipping and national defense and is one of the expansive historic sites.
