August 1st is "Water Day" and the first day of "Water Week".
Needless to say, the usefulness of water resources and the importance of conservation, but the secondary utility of "landscapes with water" cannot be overlooked.
The water area ratio in Chuo-ku is 18.3%, which is the best in Tokyo, and is blessed with waterside space.
Especially during this season, when the intense heat continues every day, strolling along the riverside while blowing in the night breeze will not only heal your heart but also enjoy the coolness.
At the mouth of the Sumida River (excluding the school river), the Ryogoku Bridge, Metropolitan Expressway Route 6.7, Shinohashi Bridge, Kiyosu Bridge, Sumida River Ohashi, Eitai Bridge, Chuo-ohashi Bridge, Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, Kachidokibashi Bridge, (Ring Route 2 Sumida River Bridge <tentative name>) are lit up.
The bridge type is different from each one, but the color of the light is also devised.
On the river surface, the light of the bridge lit up, the lights of the riverbank, the illumination of the houseboat, etc. are fused and reflected, creating a unique sense of color.
