Sumida River Fireworks Festival distant view

[TAKK...] July 31, 2012 08:30

On July 28 (Saturday), the Sumida River Fireworks Festival was held.

This year too, I went to a place near my house where I could see fireworks.

It's on the Chuo-ohashi Bridge.

I think there are more people than last year.

You can enjoy the combination with the Sky Tree for the time being (the fireworks are small)......)。

Because the distance from the venue is far, the fireworks are a little small, and it seems that only what has been launched at the first venue due to its positional relationship, but you can enjoy the combination with the Sky Tree and Eitai Bridge, and above all, it is easy to enjoy the festival I was able to enjoy it.

It is said that the Sumida River Fireworks Festival began when fireworks were launched in Kyoho 18 (1733) at the Water God Festival, praying for the eradication of illness and memorial service for the dead. At this time, pyrotechnician was Yahee, the sixth generation of a key shop in Yokohama, Nihonbashi.

The first generation of Eitai Bridge was a bridge in Genroku 11 (1698), so the position and appearance of the bridge are different, but it was already there at that time.

If you think so, there is something very impressive.
