Japan's Bridges: Rokugo Railway Bridges across the Tamagawa in Tokyo

June 2011 (35.537 Degrees, 139.703 Degrees) Rokugo Bridges

Although Tokyo is a densely populated city, it is a very pleasant and livable place because of it's excellent railway network. No matter where you are in Tokyo, you are always near a train station and you can quickly get anywhere in the large metropolitan area.

For instance, despite staying near Tokyo Bay, today I was kayaking in the Tamagawa after a half hour train ride. And bridge aficionados can enjoy the hundreds of bridges and viaducts required for the various railway lines.
