中央區觀光協會特派員部落格

在銀座4丁目十字路口附近(三越前),外國人問我路。　　“JR車站在哪裡?　我想乘坐成田快車(NEX)去成田機場第一航廈”。我也正要坐山手線去,所以一起去了東京站。　　

暫且不說東京車站內到NEX乘坐點的移動很困難,突然想到的是,在4丁目十字路口那樣的關鍵點上追加去機場的巴士和JR的標誌嚮導的話會很方便。　　

我覺得中央區地圖等的嚮導表示很充實,如果有外國人意識的版本增加的話會更方便吧?　

帶您去的外國人出差來日本,好像要順道去曼谷、斯德哥爾摩回國了。　

At Ginza 4-Chome crossing (Mitsukoshi front), a foreigner came close and asked me where JR station is. 　　He said " I want to go to JR station and head to Narita International Airport Terminal 1 by Narita Express (NEX)". 　I also was on my way to ride Yamanote Line, so I accompanied with him to Tokyo Station.　

Putting aside the difficulty to get to NEX platform in Tokyo Station, a certain idea came up to me all the sudden. 　

If there were a direction board showing the bus stop and JR station to airport at a famous spot like Gina 4-chome crossing, it would be so convenient to the foreign guests.　

I believe the information boards in Chuo-ward are alreday sufficiently placed, but if there were more boards focused on foreign guests, wouldn't it be so kind?　

The guest I walked along with came to Japan on a business trip and was on his way back home stopping over at Bangkok and Stockholm.

為了送行訪問東京站的時候,在地下街發現了寫著“Edo Tokyo Yaesu History”的櫃檯。　

On the way back from Tokyo Station, seeing a friend off, bumping into "Edo Tokyo Yaesu History" pictures' wall display in the underground shopping area was a lucky coincidence.

地點在八重洲地下街主大道,從外壕地下1號路進入JR東京站東口就到了。

The place is only few steps from Yaesu underground main avenue turing to Sotobori Chika 1st Street to the North Entrance.

在那裡牆壁上裝飾著說明了“八重洲”由來的板子、畫、照片。　　江戶時代的城郭都市圖也裝飾著,很有意思。　　　如果您有去雅蒂卡的話,請一定要來看看。

The display explains origin of the name "Yaesu" with instruction plate and pictures. There also is an old Edo Castle map which would surely interests you. So if you ever have a chance to visit Yaesu underground shopping area, the place is worth stopping over.
