Concrete vertical dike (commonly known as razor dike) was built in the 1965s due to flood damage caused by heavy rains along the Sumida River. Still, it seems to have been in a situation with the danger of collapse. Super dike was built around 1980, and the Sumida River Terrace was maintained. After renovation work in 2003, Super dike, which is highly safe against major earthquake and storm surges, and Sumida River Terrace with affinity park style were built. You can enjoy "walking", "splendid scenery" and "seasonal changes" unique to the city of water.

-We heard story about Sumida River revetment construction and Hamacho Park at Chuo-ku government office "water and green section"-introduction! The "Water and Green Contact Map" issued by the Chuo-ku Tourism and Civil Engineering Division "Water and Green Section" is full of walking information around the waterside of Chuo-ku. It is a compact and highly valuable booklet. At the same time, the "Sumida River Waterside Terrace Highlights Map" issued by the Tokyo Metropolitan Park Association is also accompanied by a stroll.

It was in 1935 that the first female of the Meiji era was sung, "Floating and floating on the banks of Hamacho, and willows." The Hamacho Riverside, which was buried after the war, is a green road along the Sumida River from Ryogokubashi to Hamacho Park. The Sumida River Terrace is located along the river. "Photos of Hamacho Park" is displayed on the terrace dike wall near Hamacho Park. It is written in June 1929. Designed by a modern park with a hall, Kiki can be seen in the park, and willows are planted along the Sumida River. You can see the building of Meijiza, completed in 1928, in front of you.

It's Hamacho Park! Here, behind the general sports center, surrounded by passages along the Sumida River (about 200m2?) There are places where weeds, trees, and willows are growing, and about 10 large and small rocks are placed.

What kind of place is Chuo-ku government office "water and green section"? I heard ... "In a place built as a garden that is integrated with the landscape of the park." The answer is that rocks are not special, and "If you buy a garden stone trader." As for the information around the sky, the willow trees are two to Yasuaki Elementary School "Yanagi no Ki II"! That's right.
