The newly built Minato Park, the beautiful Eitai Bridge

[Slow of Satsuki's Koi] December 13, 2016 16:00

Minato Park has opened. Some construction work still remains, but once this is completed, you can go to the Sumida River Terrace. There is a slope and it seems that you can go to the Sumida River Terrace even in a wheelchair. When you go up to the embankment, you can see the Reigishi Island Observation Station and Chuo-ohashi Bridge.

Reigishi Island Observation Station. Japan's standard is determined from the average sea level of Tokyo Bay, but here is the survey of the average sea level. At present, the observatory has been moved to the oil vase, but it seems that surveying is still continuing at the Reigishijima Coral Station.

It is designed with the image of Chuo-ohashi Bridge and helmet. The bridge has a structure called Shachokyo Bridge. Shin-ohashi Bridge has the same structure, but the number of wires is greater in Chuo-ohashi Bridge, which is because when the number of wires increases, the calculation becomes complicated, and computers can be used, making it possible to calculate That's it.

There is a statue named messenger at Chuo-ohashi Bridge, praying for the safety of the ship sailing. The Sumida River and Seine connected a friendly river in 1989, and a "messenger" was sent by Jack Sirak, the mayor of Paris at the time, and he donated a "houseboat" to thank him.

Mr. Shirak is a pro-Japanese school, and everyone who loves sumo, knows there are various episodes.

 

 

Another thing that has been cleaned up is the Eitai Bridge. Construction began in the summer (early summer), and on December 2nd and 3rd, all temporary scaffolds have been removed and painted again.
