The charm of Chuo-ku-"Sumida River and the Seine" ... Part 1 ≪Bridge≫

[Tom downtown] September 17, 2011 08:30

 This is the first series to visit the charm of each town through the real face of these two rivers, which are affiliated with the Sumida River, the Seine River, and the Friendship River. Of course, as a result, you will feel the splendor of Chuo-ku. I will introduce you from my point of view.

 

First of all, the bridge. Speaking of "river", it is a "bridge", but after all, a bridge with individuality becomes a picture and becomes more familiar.ship

In Chuo-ku, "Sumida River Yabashi" is selected among the "18 Views of Ohako".

All the bridges in the city are unique and familiar, but the cool design is [Kiyosu Bridge]. It is a good shooting spot with the bending condition of the Sumida River.

Of course, the other bridges are all very cool. Maybe everyone has a favorite bridge?

In Paris, [Pon Nuf] is famous.
It means "new bridge", but it is said that it was the oldest bridged. Tourists are always taking commemorative photos. camera

Another thing I would like to introduce is [Alexander III Bridge] that decorates the Seine as the most luxurious bridge.
In front of the tourist attraction [Great Palace], you will be noticed by the stunning sculptures.

[Kachidokibashi], famous as the downstream bridge of the Sumida River, is also a unique bridge.
It is a famous bridge that can be thought of together with its history, although it is no longer open and close.


Chuo-ku has been a "city of water" since ancient times, and the traffic between water transport and people has been producing liveliness. Just as the present [Sukiyabashi] set the stage for "Your name is", many famous bridges have created many dramas.

The bridge is where people come and go. Something will meet. Where culture interacts. ・I will remember you in various situations.heart

Isn't it a good idea to sit on the balustrade of the bridge and look at the scenery of the town at a time?
