A meeting to wash the famous bridge Nihonbashi Children's Activities

[Yurikamome] July 27, 2010 08:30

Sunday, July 25 "Meeting for Washing Nabashi Nihonbashi" was held.
In 1968, a local volunteer launched the “Nabashi Nihonbashi Washing Association” and this event is held every year with the cooperation of many participants, including preservation associations, local town associations, local companies, and other administrative agencies.
We will temporarily stop road traffic and refine the traditional Nihonbashi area.
