Blog #8: Togoshiginza, My neighbourhood(Arisa)

Hi, I'm Arisa. I'm sorry to too late this blog.

I live in Togoshiginza. It is part of Shinagawa ward and my neighbourhood is located between Togoshi station on the Toei-Asakusa line and Osaki station on the JR Yamanote line.  It takes 10 minutes to get Togoshi and 15minuites to get Osaki on my foot.

This is my house. I live in a mansion.

 

 

This located near the shopping street, TogoshiGinza-shopping street.

 

 

 

 

Togoshi Koen is a big park nearby. I can walk there in 10 minutes.

Long ago, Japanese feudal lord lived in here. We can wache beautiful cerry blossam in spring and beautiful autumn leaves in this season.

 

 

 

 

 

I think Togoshiginza is good to live in. 

BLOG#8 Myouden, my neighborhood(Suzuka)

Hi, this is Suzuka. I'm sorry to late this blog.

I live in Myouden in Ichikawa city. The station near my house is Myouden station on Tozai line. It takes 10 minutes from my house to the station on my foot. Myouden station is small. But many people use this station, so train is very crowded everyday morning. It is hardship to ride to school on a train. I think it is bad point.

This is my house. I live in a mansion. My house has a large balcony, so in summer, my family sometimes do BBQ here. And then my house is near the Tokyo Disny Land, so I can see Disny Land's fireworks everyday from this balcony!

Nearby, there is the Edo River. Many people call at this dry riverbed to fish, to jog, to do BBQ and so on. Sometimes I saunter there.

 

 

There are many shrine and temple in my town. So I can see various portable shrine on street.

 

This is the Yahata Shrine, near my house. 

                                                            

                       

There aren't convenience stores and  supermarkets near my house, but I think my neighborhood has a peaceful atmosphere. It is good place to live for me.                                                                                

 

Blog #8: Tobunerima, my neighborhood (Ayaka)

Hi, I will introduce my neighborhood today. I have lived at Tobunerima, a part of  Itabashi Ward since last year. I am from Mie Prefecture and I live in Tokyo by myself. Tobunerima is along the Tobutojo Line. I work part-time at Tokiwadai. I can get there in 20 minutes on foot, or in 3 minutes by train from Tobunerima.

I live in the apartment of students. All inhabitants of my apartment are college students. I think that the exterior of my apartment is very fashionable. It has a red door and gray wall.

 When I want to buy food and daily necessaries, I go to 'ION'. I can get there by 3 minutes on foot. It is very convenient for me. If I suddenly want tissue, I will go there and I can buy tissue quickly.

Also there are many small supermarkets, drugstores and restaurants in Tobunerima. I always hear the voices of children who are on their way from school in the evening. I also hear the voices of family every weekend. Many families live in Tobunerima. I like to hear their voices. I feel warm at Tobunerima.So I think Tobunerima is good place to live in.

Blog #8: Higashitotsuka, my neighbourhood (Ako)

Hi, this is Ako. I will introduce my neighborhood. I live in Higashitotsuka. Higashitotsuka station is a station of two neighbors of Yokohama station.
It takes 8 minutes to get to Yokohama.

 Only Yokosuka line stops at Higashitotsuka station, but I don't think that my neighbourhood is inconvenient 

because Shonan Shinjuku line of the Yokosuka line direct communication also stops at Higashitotsuka station.

Here is my house. I live in a mansion. 

This is the mansion's photo from the outside. 

The other side.

My house is the first floor,so a balcony is large. My family sometimes do BBQ in the balcony. 

I like it but sometimes we get noisy because Hodogaya bypass in front of a mansion.

Nearby, there is a SEIBU and Daiei. We can get anything here, so it is very convenient.

And, the Daiei is the biggest in Japan!

 

 

Shinanotyo-Kouen is a big park nearvy.There are a big ground and play ground equipments.

 

And a lot of cherry blossom bloom in, sprung, and many people see it.

 

 

Higashitotsuka is a good place to live in, and my favorite place.
