Kishamichi Promenade, which extends for about 500m, is made of 2 narrow manmade islands connected by 3 truss bridges.
汽車道は、3つの橋梁で2つの 細長い人工島を結ぶ約500メートルの遊歩道。
Original rails used by Yokohama Rinkō Railway are preserved as they were — hence the name, Kisha (汽車 = “steam train”) michi (道 = “road”).
当時の横浜臨港線のレールがそのまま残されており、ゆえに、「汽車道」という名前。
The wooden walkway is made to look like railway sleepers — it is quite mystical on a rainy day when we can see the reflection of the truss on the wet boardwalk.
線路の枕木を模して敷かれた木目の床。雨の日には、濡れた歩道にトラスが映り込んで幻想的。
The promenade offers a perfect setting for a relaxing 10-min walk surrounded by water, greenery and great views of the MM 21 (Minato Mirai) area.
