The other day, when I was blessed with fine weather as if I missed the summer, I participated in the test drive of the water bus "common kingfisher"!
This is the Nihonbashi Pier. It is located in the waterfall square under the police box on the south side of Nihonbashi.
The ship turns 180 degrees and leaves for the Sumida River! You can see that the expressway completely hides the Nihonbashi River. You can see Edobashi in the distance.
Armor Bridge, Kayaba Bridge, Minato Bridge, etc. pass through bridges one after another, and finally join the Sumida River. This fearless figure of Eitai Bridge! It's just one of the words, "I'm glad I'm fine!" In the back, you can also see the waterfront of Chuo-ku, River City 21 and Chuo-ohashi Bridge.
This is also a dignified figure that tickles the heart of a bridge lover, Kiyosu Bridge!
After this, Shinohashi, Ryogokubashi, and the ship finally enters the Kanda River. This is the base of Yanagibashi. In the past, there were many boaters on the Sumida River, and this neighborhood has left a remnant that flourished as a flower town. One of the highlights of this "common kingfisher" is that many houseboats stop along the narrow river.
This is Shohei Bridge. It is the iron bridge on the Sobu Line that passes over it. It's a sight you see when you walk in Akihabara, so many people know it?
In addition, the ship goes back to the Kanda River ... and reaches the climax of this route. Take a look, the beauty of Hijiribashi! It's not a word. This point where the Sobu Line, Chuo Line, and Marunouchi Line intersect, you may be able to take a very good picture if it works! Vickie was so impressed that he enjoyed the scenery than releasing the shutter ^^
In this way the common kingfisher turns left at the end of Korakuen and goes down the Nihonbashi River again. Minnabashi, Hitotsubashi, Nishiki Bridge, Kanda Bridge, Kamakura Bridge ... A wonderful sister who usually works as a voice actor will explain the bridge and river in an easy-to-understand manner.
Well, I've been back to Nihonbashi! Oh, Nihonbashi, which always walks up, is overhead ... Wonderful! The speed was slow, so I was able to take a closer look at Nihonbashi from below.
This mysterious feeling looking up at my town that I usually walk from the river surface. Please enjoy the new "Odo Tour" on the common kingfisher!
