Explore Tokyo's waterways

Tokyo’s waterways have some tours designed to show how our life is connected to the rivers. An NPO called Enjoy Eco School operates group tours, using specially designed exhaust-free electric boats to cause minimal impact to the environment.

Different tours explore the Kanda-Nihonbashi, Onagi River and Tennozu areas on half- and full-day trips that offer glimpses of turtles, wild birds and other aquatic animals that inhabit the area. You can also learn about the boats that ply the rivers collecting garbage. Part of the cost goes toward supporting the organization’s monthly riverside cleanup gatherings. English tour guides are available on request

We can observe from the news that Japan has a wonderful environment. I think it is because Japanese always campaign to protect the abundance of the environment. I am the one who like to live in a pure surrounding. It is good to protect a nature that we live with. In my opinion, Thailand do not have a strict law about destroying an environment, so some places are not delightful as expected.

Many people do not know that there are a nice relaxing river in the capital city like Tokyo. Kanda River is a wonderful attraction that many people can enjoy by taking a bicycle along the Kanda River, which runs for nearly 25 kilometers from Kichijoji’s Inokashira Park. There is a beautiful landscaped garden from the early 17th century which has many trees. If you ride a bicycle along the river, you will see a 1000 years old temple and a museum. I think many people can feel relaxed in this place. In Thailand, the place like Kanda River is not appear much in a capital city, so this is a new thing for me. In my opinion, Kanda River is a very great place to visit in Japan.
