A Walk around Kumano Shrine, Chuo Park, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building (Part 3) / 熊野神社、中央公園と都庁の散歩 (パート3)
Kumano Shrine is located on one corner of Chuo Park, so my wanderings took me further into the park itself. Here is one of the residents I came across. But you know what I really love about these large municipal parks, its discovering the different statues and monuments within.
熊野神社が中央公園の一角にあるので、もちろん次探索するのは園内です。この猫、もしかして公園の住民かも。でも僕がこういう大きい公園散歩の楽しみの一つは園内にある彫刻を見つける事です。
Kizuna / 絆
Ryo / 瞭
Kami / 髪
Yawaragi / 燮 (やわらぎ)
At Chuo Park there are two waterfalls, this one is called the Shiroito Waterfall.
中央公園に滝が二つあります。こっちは白糸の滝。
On the opposite side of the Shiroito Waterfall is the Shinjuku Niagara Falls.
白糸の滝の反対側にもう一つの滝があります、これは新宿のナイアガラの滝!
Its hard to tell from this picture, but you can see the top of the Yawaragi statue.
この写真でちょっと見にくいの思いますが、やわらぎの彫刻が見えます。
This is the Fujimidai Observation Spot which was closed due to damages suffered from the 3/11 quake last year.
これは富士見台です。昨年の東日本大震災でこの建物も壊れましたので、現在は登れません。
Peace Bells / 平和の鐘
This was my favorite sculpture in Chuo Park. Statue of Kuon (and relates to a samurai called Dokan Ota).
これが僕が一番気に入りの彫刻「久遠の像」、太田道灌に関するものなんですが、僕にとってちょっと分かりづらい。
Another view of "Kami" / 別の角度から見る「髪」
Cool clock don't you think? Next, I'm off to check out the view from the top of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building.
この時計も良いね。次、東京都庁の展望台に行きます!(ただなんで!)
