well 「井戸―ido」


Walk (photo) of Yanaka still continues.
This is a well.
I was surprised to know that it was a personal well.
There are the houses which still uses a well in these area.

That there is such a thing in Tokyo!
Though it is an old thing, will it be new discovery? ( ^▽^)
Tokyo are composition of old and very new things.
I am sorry that old things gradually decrease.

A steamed meat bun 「肉まん―NIKUMANN」


A steamed meat bun ...
Is this English right? (^-^:)

I think that after all a souvenir when I return from Osaka is a steamed meat bun of 551 shops. After all a this of here is delicious.

Because, as for the TAKKOYAKI or OKONOMIYAKI, it is delicious not a souvenir therefore to eat.

Because I used a steamer after a long absence, it was sultry together.
It's delicious.

NAKANOSIMA public hall 「中之島公会堂-NAKANOSIMAKOKAIDO」


I took a walk through the Nakanosima outskirts wiht mother.
The small rosary did not yet bloom very much.

I am interested recently around Minamisennba and Kitasennba in Osaka.
These outskirts are suitable for walk.
This is Nakanoshima public hall.
It is put up in the Taisho era.
Old buildings such as the Meiji era are left in this area plenty.

Athletic meet 「運動会―UNDOKAI」


During homecoming, I stayed one night at a house of an older sister.
A nephew kid just went to look at an athletic meet of a kindergarten.

The appearance that the child is dancing hard is lovely.
It is drawn in the back , saying that "祭、MATSURI=Festival".
In the actual festival of Japan, we can see often people are dancing or carring a mikoshi portable shrine on shoulders in such clothes( a happi coat).

閑宮邸―KANINNOMIYATEI



Only the residence mark of academy KANNNOMIYA'house in the Kyoto imperial garden ,
We can see by being opened as a material pavilion now.

Long long ago, the capital moved to Tokyo from Kyoto, and court nobles moved in Tokyo, and Kyoto went to ruin.

It seems to be pleasant though surrounds the garden to all sides and takes a rest.

Kyoto Imperial Palace 「京都御所―KYOTOGOSHO」


It is a diary after a long time(^ー^;)

I live in Tokyo now,I went home to Osaka after a long time.
The delicious meal and the talking with a friend were very happy.


I went to Kyoto Imperial Palace with a friend.
I like Kyoto .

In some gravel paths which led to the Imperial Palace, because it rained, I did not see most people.

We cannot consider all not to apply for the Imperial Palace beforehand.
Old buildings seemed to stand inside and wanted to look by all means.
Green of trees in an Imperial garden was beautiful.

Because the maple was growth of weeds one of a wonderful leaf, I want to visit you again in the time of colored leaves.

A Street corner of Tokyo Downtown"Yanaka"   「東京下町”谷中”のある街角」


The corner where a tree of this big cedar is planted is a famous point of Yanaka. Yanaka is famous one of walk courses among Tokyo downtown areas.
I like Yanaka.
A foreign artist lives in this street. He would a man be charmed by this town, too.
We can see a lot of such triangle corners be a trace of the Edo era in a downtown area.
