do you know? ! "Hakone Ekiden" tiles! !

The end of the year is approaching.

Christmas is over, and everyone is busy preparing for the New Year and returning home.



It will be a busy time making osechi dishes, decorating flowers, and cleaning the house.

And it's time to celebrate the New Year with the whole family.



The two days of January 2nd and 3rd, after the time of the celebration, are well known to all of you.

There is "Hakone Ekiden".



It seems that it will be the 87th "Hakone Ekiden" that has become a New Year's tradition.

I am very impressed with the appearance of running the whole Hakone road in the New Year with the university's sash.

Do you know there!?

On the road of Sakuras Totsuka, the ekiden is drawn with tiles.

The first is at the traffic light in front of Sakuras Totsuka.

The second is between the Sakuras Totsuka store and the pharmacy next to it.

The third is from the signal to the post office in three places.

It's stuck in these 3 places.

The tile is about 80 cm in diameter, and has a picture of the fifty-three stages of the Tokaido on which two runners are drawn.

It is depicted running.

The tea bag of our Shunpo tea garden also has a picture of the fifty-three stages of the Tokaido.

On January 2nd and 3rd, I think there will be a lot of people who will be cheering along the roadside.

You can get energy from the running figure.

And after cheering, please visit Sakuras Totsuka Shunpo Tea Garden and enjoy a warm cup of tea.

Please pick up a tea bag while drinking and tell us about the state of the relay race while looking at it.

We are waiting for you with warm tea and sweets.
