Other Sightseeing Spots in Tokyo Area

  • Mugiyama Floating Bridge
    Travel / Tourism
    Tokyo Nishitama-gun Okutamamachi Kawano
    "A floating bridge on Lake Okutama, one of Tokyo's prime water sources. Commonly called the ""Drum Can Bridge,"" it gives visitors the chance to walk across Lake Okutama. The 220-meter-long bridge was built to provide foot access to the far shore at the time the dam was built. Originally drum cans provided flotation, but today this is done with polyethylene and styrofoam. The bridge doesn't sway much or get much spray, so kids can cross safely too. Still, watch your step as there are some gaps."
