The sidewalk in Chuo-ku is interesting! 3 [Pedestrian Bridge]

[Minato kid] May 13, 2018 12:00

Hello, this is Minato kid. Currently, Chuo-ku has a total of 18 pedestrian bridges, 7 in the Kyobashi area, 6 in the Nihonbashi area, and 5 in the Tsukishima area. Today, I would like to introduce two pedestrian bridges that are next to each other over Showa-dori. There was also a nice sidewalk here.

♪ Gin Toichi Pedestrian Bridge

"Gin Toichi Pedestrian Bridge" is located on Showa-dori, Ginza 1-chome 14-20. Here, there were four pictures representing the waterside of Chuo-ku.

There are many waterfronts in the Sumida River, canals, Shinsui-Koen Park and Chuo Ward. There is a beautiful cherry blossom spot, where wild birds such as black gulls visit and make us feel the season. And the bridges full of charm are symbols of Chuo-ku.


♪ Takaramachi Pedestrian Bridge

"Takaramachi Pedestrian Bridge" is located on Showa-dori, Kyobashi 2-9-16. Here, eight kinds of seasonal flowers were drawn in order from spring.

This road, nicknamed Showa-dori, has the name of "Tokyo Metropolitan Road Main Regional Road No. 316". When viewed from the pedestrian bridge, you will notice that the roadway is very large. It is said that this was widely taken with lessons learned from the fact that sparks moved across roads during the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and the spread of fires. In addition, there are many companies in this area, and many business people use this pedestrian bridge on weekdays. It would be nice if I could look at the picture at my feet and feel a little relieved.
