Yutaka Bridge


There were many of us enjoying the cherry blossoms along Kanda river. This bridge, Yutaka-hashi (豊橋), was a great spot to see all of the branches leaning over the river from both sides.

  2. Nice shot, do you know the girl?
    I like the idea of bridge having plaque with names, which is not so common here...

  6. You would have had to pull me away screaming from this gorgeous view. I have never seen cherry trees like this before. An awesome sight, and your capture is so nice. Lovely work.

  8. Oh, I see that this bridge is near a terminus of one of two streetcar lines remaining in Tokyo. Those are fun.

    Even after the cherry blossoms were a bit past their prime along “my” section of Kanda River, way upstream from here, I loved the way the petals in places fell thickly upon the water like drifts of snow.

  9. I saw a Rotary International scholar from Osaka, Japan this weekend at our district Rotary conference. She demonstrated the Tea Ceremony and gave a speech wearing her beautiful kimono. Many of use bought white or red "Japan Relief" fundraising bracelets from her!
