The shows held on the permanent stage have great lighting and sound, making them very impressive!

<NYに世界最大のバンクシーミュージアムOPEN>

The mysterious street artist Banksy

Banksy Museum exhibits the world's largest collection of 160 pieces

Opening on May 15, 2024 in the Soho area of Manhattan, New York!

Speaking of Banksy,
Although based in the UK,

A mysterious artist who appears out of nowhere one day, suddenly leaving behind his works all over the world.

Expressing serious realities such as war and peace, social and political messages through humor and satire.

The message and the location of the painting,

There are pros and cons,

The work is

They have disappeared in conflict zones, or they have been erased without permission because they were drawn without permission, or they have been quickly removed without a trace for the purpose of resale...

All the works that were erased or removed

Several selected talented artists have created life-size replicas

It is being exhibited in New York, with a street atmosphere intact.


I think most of Banksy's works are viewed on small screens such as smartphone photos,

It's amazing that you can see everything here in life-size.

If you come to NY, this is a must see!

< Banksy Museum NYC >
277 Canal Street, New York, 10013

10am - 8pm
Adults $30

Hafaadai! Hello everyone.

As many of you may already know,
Hyatt Regency Saipan will close on June 30, 2024.
I haven't been in touch with you recently,
I went to Miyako Restaurant, which I often visited when I was a Hyatt member.

Truly Hyatt quality!
All the dishes were very delicious and left me full.
It was a very satisfying dinner, but I felt a little sad...

<NYの新名所ハドソンヤードのシンボルやっと再開>

One of the new attractions in New York after the coronavirus pandemic is

Hudson Yards is a district in west Manhattan where buildings tower like a futuristic city.


In the center is the "Vessel" that was released in 2019.

Its unique beehive-like design made it an instantly popular symbol.


Then shortly after that, coronavirus hit

During the strict curfew in New York

As people continued to take their own lives in this deserted building,

It closed in 2021.


This vessel that I had only seen from the outside

Finally!
Before long

It was announced that it will reopen after iron fences have been installed to ensure safety.


We will let you know again when the opening date is announced.


New York is back to its peak as tourists from around the world return to pre-COVID numbers

I went to MARA, a Mediterranean restaurant that just opened this month.
This is a healthy dish made with delicious ripe tomatoes, vegetables, olives, feta cheese and high-quality olive oil.
The photo shows BOCOCHINI with fresh mozzarella and roasted beets.
Chicken kebab and Roman-style pizza. The interior is stylish and comfortable.
It's located in front of Ala Moana Shopping Center, so it's easy to access.

During low tide during the full moon, the water level in Hanauma Bay is shallow, making it feel like a natural swimming pool.
Hanauma Bay is now reservation-based and as you can see in the photo, it is empty and comfortable.

In terms of seismic intensity, would it be around 2 or less?
Some people didn't feel the shaking at all.


nevertheless,
It was a very rare experience

All day long, TV news and people's conversations were dominated by stories of "earthquake experiences."

Meanwhile,

Within 20 minutes of the earthquake

"I survived the NYC earthquake"
I survived the NYC earthquake.

As soon as it hits the shelves
There was a 2-hour queue.

In just one hour, they sold over 1,000 copies, totalling about 1.5 million yen.

A former bank employee and shop owner is attracting attention.


"There was no major damage, so we were able to do this.
