The place is lovely and beautiful for several reasons. If you walk along the gate you will reach a small island-like place from where you can view your surroundings well. There are some old stone made chairs and tables under the trees to sit and rest, and a big stone memorial with Japanese writing, I can't read. You can get close to the water from here as there are some stairs that go straight to the water. Besides, you will find Arakawa museum of Aqua, a place for picnic and bar-b-que, baseball field, cycling and jogging trails very near this watergate. To enjoy it most please come to weekdays instead of holidays to avoid crowds. This place is...

Old diversion bridge constructed in 1924, 100 years ago to divert the flow of Arakarawa river to a new diversion done in 1924. Actually this diversion shows the ability of Japanese people to done a massive and lengthy diversion canal for flood protection. Quite amazing. It was said that they used close this bridge to divert the flow in the diversion canal. However, now there is a new blue bride constructed and yet they preserved this old bride as a monument. There is another establishment, showing all historical...

荒川沿いのこの岩淵水門を、私はずっと訪れてみたいと思っていました。実際に赤羽の駅から歩いて向かう道のりは、少し長く感じましたが、その先に待っていた景色は、私の想像をはるかに超えていました。

目の前に広がる朱色の大きな水門は、空と川の深い青色の中で、まるで時を超えてきたかのように堂々と立っています。私はその力強い姿に、一瞬で心を奪われました。この水門が大正時代に造られ、荒川の洪水から東京の人々を守ってきたと知ったとき、ただ美しいだけでなく、とてつもない重みと歴史を背負っていることを肌で感じたのです。この巨大な構造物を、当時の人々がどれほどの苦労と情熱を注いで作り上げたのかを想像すると、胸が熱くなります。私たちは今、彼らの偉大な功績のおかげで安心して暮らせているのだと、改めて感謝の気持ちがこみ上げてきました。

水門を渡って中洲へと足を踏み入れると、そこは別世界でした。賑やかなバーベキュー広場がすぐ近くにあるのに、水門が隔てるだけで、川の流れる音と風のささやきしか聞こえない、静かで穏やかな空間が広がっていました。この静寂の中で、ぼんやりと水面を眺めていると、まるで自分が時間の流れから切り離されたような、不思議な感覚に陥りました。私はこの場所に、単なる観光地ではない、深い安らぎを見つけた気がします。

この日は、ジョギングをする人や自転車で通り過ぎていく人をたくさん見かけました。彼らにとって、この水門は日々の生活に溶け込んだ、なくてはならない存在なのだろうなと感じます。友人と楽しそうに魚釣りをしている人たちもいました。都心からそう遠くない場所に、これほど豊かな自然が残っていることに、私は心から感動しました。春には桜が咲き誇るそうで、その時期にはまた違った美しさを見せてくれるのでしょう。

一方で、日が傾き始めると、少しだけ雰囲気が変わっていくのを感じました。一部では、この場所が「心霊スポット」としても知られているという話を耳にしたことがあります。もちろん、昼間はそんな気配など全くありません。しかし、歴史の重みや、幾度となくこの川が人々に災いをもたらした過去を思うと、夜になるとまた違った顔を見せるのかもしれない、と少しだけ背筋が伸びるような気がしました。

この岩淵水門は、私にとって単に景色を楽しむ場所ではありませんでした。それは、日本の土木技術の歴史に触れ、この土地に生きる人々の生活や自然との共生を深く感じることができる場所でした。都会の中にありながら、これほど豊かで思慮深い時間を過ごせる場所を見つけられて...

Beautiful historical Watergate that is no longer in operation but preserved to showcase the history of the area. The current functional Watergate can be seen in the back. It's pleasant during the day, with people fishing and having picnics in the area. Interesting to learn about the historical usage of the Watergate and the river diversions.
