Shibuya production mint tea

Last weekend, has been bother you on the roof garden of the Shibuya ward office Jinnan branch office.

The word "garden" in the heart of Shibuya also, very much be a match for you, but what a potato in the ward office of the roof, leeks, strawberries and blueberries ... of so fruits and vegetables making was done. Here is made in 2001 as a green roof model for the purpose of mitigation of global warming, is so'm spaces that are experimenting with various possibilities of plant cultivation in the roof.


Receives the light of the warm sun, laid-back, is multiplied even at the waist on a bench, Shibuya scramble intersection, do not lie like the hustle and bustle of the city center, you fall into such illusion. Or also there that the public office of the roof, rather than people other than staff also this day, unexpectedly, no, you might say a hidden spot that has not been known at all.

In Shibuya-ku, grew up, and transformed into a tea by hand to the staff of Shibuya, and, I mean that drunk to me in the now Shibuya ward office.
