Beautiful Night Views in Chuo Ward
The streets of Chuo Ward are not only clean and beautiful during the day but also enchanting at night. While some night vistas are available throughout the year, others come to life only during winter when they are illuminated. In this article, I aim to introduce several such nocturnal scenes in Chuo Ward.
Chuo-dori Avenue
The initial image showcases a night view of Chuo-dori Avenue in Ginza. This perspective, captured from the location where the Kyobashi Bridge used to be there, extends towards the Ginza area. Due to a slight turn in the avenue at this point, an unobstructed view towards Ginza can be admired from the sidewalk.
Kabuki-za Theater
Kabuki-za is a theater dedicated to the traditional Japanese performing art of kabuki. Reconstructed in 2013, the current building inherits the design of its predecessor.
