Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Higashiyama Water Supply Tower, located near Nittaji Temple on Mount Joowang, Chikusa Ward, Nagoya, with a height of 37.85 meters, was built in the 5th year of the Showa era (1930). The tower is the oldest water supply tower in Nagoya. It was used as a daily water supply facility for residents, and later became a disaster emergency water supply facility. In Showa 58 (1983), the observation facility was renovated, and it was located 27 meters above the ground. From a distance, this tower looks like a mushroom and a sitting cat, very cute. The water tower is only open to visit twice a year, and the rest of the time is not accessible.

The water towers are still in use today, but the role is mainly for emergency water use.
Appearance looks nothing special, but it plays a vital role in emergency water supply.
I am not moving Nagoya, the Toyama Water Tower, is a place name with Japanese characteristics. Yes, it is a Japanese city, located in the middle of the central region, it is the center of the political, economic, educational and cultural area, so it is also called "Zhongjing". Before I came, I checked this place. What was amazing was that Japanese general Toyoson Sugiyoshi was also from Nagoya. I can't help but make people love this place a little more. On the day of the play, we came to a water tower near when we were shaking outside. After consulting locals, it was known as Dongshan Water Tower, which is older than everyone we are here and dates back to 1930. It was originally a place for residents to get water, but later became an emergency shelter. From the appearance, this water tower is very solid and heavy, and it is a very close water tower. In addition, the color of the water tower exterior wall is dark brown, which also gives a strong sense of history. Moreover, since it no longer has the task of water supply, there are not many people around, and so no one cares for him, which is called an overgrown one. But the decline of the water tower is, in my opinion, a reflection of the progress of the Japanese people's living standards. It is recommended that the road conditions are not very good, it is recommended to wear sneakers.
