Recommended for those who take the Chuo-ku Tourism Test!
Exhibitions that show the history and present of Doboku 11/22-25
"The 15th Chuo-ku Tourism Certification" to be held on February 18, 2023. According to my analysis of past questions, about 30% of the total have been questioned about civil engineering issues.
The exhibition "Civil Engineering Collection 2022", which is perfect for studying the Chuo-ku Tourism Certification, will be held at the Shinjuku Station West Exit Plaza Event Corner (JR Shinjuku Station West Exit) from November 22 (Tuesday) to November 25 (Friday), 2022. Participation fee is free.
One of the highlights of this time is "basin flood control." Detailed explanations will be given on new flood control measures in the event of frequent heavy rain disasters. The other is "public transportation." 2022 will be the 150th anniversary of the opening of the railway and the 60th anniversary of the opening of the Metropolitan Expressway. Various collections that you cannot usually see, such as historical materials, drawings, photographs, videos, and models, will be open to the public at once.
As a content related to Doboku in Chuo-ku, I think the video about the construction of the Metropolitan Expressway is a must-see. The video of the history of Tokyo Station, right next to Chuo-ku, is also interesting.
At the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Construction "Tokyo Bridge and Civil Engineering Exhibition", which will be held at the same time in the same place, a model of Kachidokibashi and a bridge light-up that beautifully colors the Sumida River at night will be introduced.
