胡荻堂餅店
胡荻堂 Mochi Shop
Under a roof with a gentle upturn, round white lamps hang in a long row. The comment says the building puts you in the mood to sit in a chair and eat mochi.
About this photo
A ridged roof, its lower edge curving gently upward, sits over a two-story shop. On the second floor are two pairs of latticed windows and a long, horizontal signboard, and along the eaves below, round white lamps alternate with ornaments that look like bundles of leaves. On the ground floor, two awnings stick out, with the character 氷 (ice) hanging between them, and a bicycle is parked in front.
The writer of the comment sees this shop as a concrete building that brings in Japanese taste, and finds something interesting in both the wide pillars and the parapet, which looks as if only the lower edge of a chidori hafu (a triangular decorative gable) had been taken.
