Travel / Tourism

Tokyo Sumida-ku Oshiage 1-1-2

Located in Oshiage, Sumida City, this is a 634-meter tall broadcasting tower with an observatory that became Tokyo's new symbol when it opened in 2012. There are actually two observatories, the Tembo Deck at 350 meters above ground and the Tembo Galleria that is 450 meters high. The Tembo Galleria has tube-shaped glass walls, giving you the sensation that you are strolling through the sky as you gaze out at Tokyo's daytime and night-time scenery. At the base of the tower is Tokyo Skytree Town, a facility that is more like a shopping mall with stores and restaurants.

Tokyo Sumida-ku Mukoujima 1-4-5

A Shinto shrine located in Sumida Park in Mukojima, Sumida City, Tokyo. The shrine was built in 860 to enshrine the god Susanoo no Mikoto. Today there are three principal deities enshrined in the shrine. It is believed that if you are sick, rubbing the same spot on the Nade-ushi (rubbing cow) statue on the shrine's grounds as the affected part of your body will cure your illness. On the final day of the shrine's annual festival in September, local neighborhood associations parade around with portable shrines and bring them onto the shrine grounds.

Loved the combination of the nature walk yo the shrine, the interesting gifts to the Emperor along the way, the wooden doors at the temple/ shrine. Was all very tasteful and beautiful.

地下鉄の押上駅（スカイツリー駅）の近くにあります。防災関係のお仕事をしている人が研修で利用しているようです。講習会がよく開催されています。逆に言えば一般の人にはあまり縁がないようですが、それは残念なこと。防災はみんなに知ってもらってみんなで協力してやらないと意味がないですもの。だから、もっと一般の人に興味をもってもらい、いっぱい来てくれないと。スカイツリーの帰りに寄ってください。
