This is the haircut shop I always go to.
I've been going there for 20 years now.
It's a small haircut shop run by the owner by himself.

The name of the store is Peace.
It is located between Kinshicho and Ryogoku in Sumida Ku, Tokyo.

The owner loves Japanese music from the Showa era, and you can listen to old records and Japanese music from the Showa era.
If you are interested in this place, please go there.

A round object on the parapet of a bridge.
I wander what it is designed to represent.
There are various theories, such as fireworks or the round roof of the old Kokugikan.
What does it look like to you?

The Japanese pronunciation is "Momonji-ya".
"Momonji" refers to wild animals such as boars and deer.

In other words, it is a wild animal restaurant.

In Japan, eating meat was openly prohibited in the Edo period.

This is the setting of a ghost story from the Edo period.

There was a man who was fishing in a moat.
He catches a lot of fish, and when he is about to leave, he hears a mysterious voice saying, "Leave it!"
I got scared and rushed back to the house to check the fish box. I thought I had caught a lot of fish, but there was none in there.
