Top > Self-guided Walking Tour > 10 Routes to Enjoy Waterfront Walk in Tokyo

We have designed ten walking tour routes to introduce visitors to Tokyo's diverse waterfront scenes and views. Our list includes five routes in the Kandagawa River downstream area and the Nihombashigawa River area, where an interesting blend of historic and modern architecture is found. The other five routes cover the vicinity of the Katsushima Canal, where the preserved nature rich in water and greenery welcomes visitors.
Take a break from your busy day and refresh yourself by walking in pleasant breeze and sunshine of the waterfront areas.
