Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

I saw a recent correspondent blog introducing a wonderful view of the Sumida River.

Immediately, I went to enjoy the scenery and atmosphere.
 

As you follow Ningyocho-dori in the direction of Suitengu, the Sumida River Ohashi is built beyond it.

The Kiyosu Bridge upstream is built across the Sumida River Ohashi, and the Eitai Bridge is built downstream.

Both Kiyosu Bridge and Eitai Bridge were designated as national cultural properties in June 2007, so they were designated as national cultural properties.

From the top of the Sumida River Ohashi Bridge, you can see the national heavy cultural properties both upstream and downstream!
 

The Kiyosu Bridge was completed in 1928, and was modeled on a suspension bridge in Rhine in Cologne (Germany).

This bridge is said to be beautiful among the bridges over the Sumida River.

Eitai Bridge is said to have been built in Genroku 11 (1698), and was about 150m upstream from now.

It was a large wooden bridge at that time, and it was known as a cool place in summer!

The current bridge is a steel arch bridge that was replaced in Taisho 15 (1926).

In addition, from above the Sumida River Ohashi, the Sky Tree is located over Kiyosu Bridge upstream.

River City 21 in Tsukuda over the Eitai Bridge downstream, and Sumida River Terrace along the Sumida River along the Sumida River.

I was able to enjoy various scenery.

The scenery dyed in the sunset and the illuminated night view are also good for each!

A tug-of-war tournament was held at the general sports center in Hamacho Park on the 17th (Sun).

The competition was divided into the championship section (boys / girls), the general section, and the junior section from 9:30 am, and the qualifying league and final tournament were held. The game in the championship section was powerful and very powerful.

On the other hand, during the lunch break, various exhibition matches were performed, such as a tug of war for wrestlers and children in the Arashio room, a tug of war for beautiful women and children in the middle of Miss, and a tug of war in the middle of Miss.

The last is a commemorative photo of the wrestler and Miss Chuo.

In addition, there were many stalls outside the sports center.

At the food stalls of the Chuo-ku Tourism Association, there is a watering tub, and you can play with guns, kendama, yo-yo fishing, etc. I also help you.

There was such a person at the Yoshimoto Kogyo stall.

The stalls in the Arashio room sold chanko, so I tried it for lunch.

It was salty and refreshing with plenty of chicken and vegetables, and it was very delicious.

Also, there was a stall selling local beer called Nihonbashi Beer, so I bought it. The taste is fun tonight.

 

 

  From August 4th to 9th, an exhibition of bags made of kimono fabrics is being held at the gallery in St. Luke Hospital.

Fumino Seki was a classmate of Kyoba Peony's junior high school, so I was encouraged to go out.

　There are two nice parasols at the entrance of the gallery. There was a wonderful parasol that could block the hot summer sunshine and pass through the occasional cool breeze of the Sumida River.

I see, there are a lot of handbags that mainly use kimono fabrics.

What impressed me was that in consideration of the users of St. Luke Hospital, a small bag that subdivided drugs was also created.

And not only for Japanese clothing, there was also such a nice casual bag. It's a fun design that imagined Jurassic.

 

　I bought a bag called "Wine Carrie".

I thought this was stylish and wonderful not only for carrying wine, but also for carrying plastic bottle drinks and folding umbrellas.

  

This is like a Hawaiian quilt fabric. It's a cute turtle design.

 

I hope you will meet a wonderful work!

 

 

By the way, here is the article of Fumino Seki of Kyoba peony.

 August 1st is "Water Day" and the first day of "Water Week".

Needless to say, the usefulness of water resources and the importance of conservation, but the secondary utility of "landscapes with water" cannot be overlooked.

The water area ratio in Chuo-ku is 18.3%, which is the best in Tokyo, and is blessed with waterside space.

Especially during this season, when the intense heat continues every day, strolling along the riverside while blowing in the night breeze will not only heal your heart but also enjoy the coolness.

At the mouth of the Sumida River (excluding the school river), the Ryogoku Bridge, Metropolitan Expressway Route 6.7, Shinohashi Bridge, Kiyosu Bridge, Sumida River Ohashi, Eitai Bridge, Chuo-ohashi Bridge, Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, Kachidokibashi Bridge, (Ring Route 2 Sumida River Bridge <tentative name>) are lit up.

The bridge type is different from each one, but the color of the light is also devised.

On the river surface, the light of the bridge lit up, the lights of the riverbank, the illumination of the houseboat, etc. are fused and reflected, creating a unique sense of color.
