Yodogawa (Yodo River)
>> Sunday, March 8, 2009
The Yodogawa (淀川) or Yodo River is one of the two longest rivers that runs through Osaka, and I live close to it. The Yodo river banks had been reconstructed to look like just any other river bank in Japan. But this made it more suitable for jogging, strolling, and biking. I have only gone to the banks during the fireworks displays in summer, and recently, I have bid my initial goodbye to Osaka by strolling along Yodo River. Here are some photos and sorry for the quality. I only used my phone's camera. The first picture became like this and I don't know how it happened.

Dear Shiera-san
I'm contacting you on behalf of our website ModernNipponProject.com,
We are planning to renew our site and make it into a more advanced information platform for Japanese and foreigners coming to or living in Japan, to exchange useful information or find other people with the same experience in their area (since it is especially difficult for foreign residents who do not live in the big cities) and introduce the town they live in, its best spots and foods, post photos and articles.
We are looking for foreign residents in ALL Japanese prefectures and would love to hear their experiences and share them with others on our new interactive website, and we hope helpful and interesting discussions will come up in the course.
Maybe you would like to contribute a blog entry you wrote in the past, if the interactive concept is not your type. ANY sort of contribution or interaction would be greatly appreciated and we would be very grateful.
Our current site is not being updated while we are still in preparations for the brand new interactive information platform, but please do have a look and if you are interested in any of the ideas above, please do let us know and write us back.
We hope we can gather a lot of people and create cultural interaction on the new Modern Nippon Project site.
Thanks for reading and hoping to hear from you soon!
Yours kindly,
the members of the MNP team

Hi, I like your blog! Those are some really nice pictures of Yodogawa. Your title image is great, too. I run a blog called Osaka Insider at osakainsdier.wordpress.com that focuses on travel and living, and including sightseeing recommendations, information on great restaurants and bars, and other things readers may want to know about Osaka. Please take a look when you have a chance!
Japan is a beautiful country that has many river tributaries. Yodo river is one of them. The pictures in this post are a little blurred indeed but still clearly recognizable. Thanks for the post and the photos. God bless you all always.
