Chuo-ku, heavy snow

[TAKK...] February 10, 2014 09:00

 From the morning of the 8th, snow continued to fall mainly on the Pacific side, causing record heavy snowfall in the Kanto Koshin region, and the snowfall at 11:00 pm reached 27 cm in the city center of Tokyo.
 It is the first time in 20 years that it has exceeded 20 centimeters.

 In the Edo period, it seems that there was a custom of enjoying snow viewing, and there were also snow viewing boats on the Sumida River.

 As you can see in Ginza.

 Snow is beautiful and has a taste, but it is also a troublesome thing, such as disturbing transportation and falling while walking.
