Geocache Description:

This Cache is on "Kachidoki-bashi" bridge where you would see the fascinating view. This is a "Bascule bridge" just like a Towe Bridge in London, which is rarely seen in Japan. However, this bridge has never opend since 1970 and will not do.

You would enjoy the view by sitting on this bridge, as well as grab the Cache which is 4 x5 x8 (cm) seized plastic container. But if you are an Acrophobia or Tremophobia, you won't fully enjoy this place. You would see the river just under your eyes from the Cache point.

Near this Cache point, there is a famous wholesale fish market called "Tsukiji". Many Sushi shops and fresh fish markets are there (maybe you may find this place in your guidebook). So after the Cache hunting, enjoy your delicious and fascinating meal here! Because the fish market starts very very early in the morning that the most of the shops are closed after noon, and on holidays.

このキャッシュは「勝ちどき橋」の上にあります。勝ちどき橋は日本には珍しい跳開橋として1924年に建てられました。当時は隅田川を航行する船舶も多く、水運を優先するために可動式の橋として建設され、建設当初は1日5回ずつ開閉が行われていました。船舶通航量の減少に伴い、橋の開閉回数も少なくなり、1970年を最後に跳開されることはなくなりました。
キャッシュポイントは橋の上で、ここに座って綺麗な景色を眺めることが出来ます。でも、もしあなたが高所恐怖症だったら、あまり下を見ない方がよいかもしれません。キャッシュは4x5x8(cm)のタッパーウェアです。

このキャッシュの近くには築地市場(魚河岸)があります。卸売市場は朝早くから活気がありますが、その分午後になるとほとんどのお店が閉まってしまいますので注意してください。また、市場が休みの日曜・祝日も基本的には閉まっています。日本の一大観光地「築地」で、新鮮なお魚をご賞味ください。
