Tennozu Canal Boardwalk 天王洲 ボードウォーク
A timber boardwalk along the Tennozu canal in Shinagawa, lined with a brewery restaurant, art galleries and a floating restaurant barge, and lit up beautifully after dark.
About
Tennozu Isle is a small reclaimed island of offices and warehouses that has turned into one of Tokyos most pleasant canal-side neighbourhoods. The wooden boardwalk runs along the Tennozu canal beside the T.Y. Harbor brewery restaurant and the converted Terrada warehouses, which now house galleries, an art supplies store and a museum, with large murals painted on the warehouse walls. Water taxis and party boats tie up along the canal, the bridges are lit at night, and in spring and autumn the neighbourhood holds canal festivals with market stalls on the water. It feels a world away from the station crowds of Shinagawa, two stops away.
Highlights
- Wooden boardwalk right on the water, beautifully lit at night
- Giant murals on warehouse walls along the canal
- T.Y. Harbor brewery terrace overlooking the canal
- Galleries and the WHAT MUSEUM in converted warehouses nearby
- Water taxis and boats moored along the quay
Tips
- Come at dusk for drinks on a terrace and the lit bridges after dark.
- Check the Tennozu Canal Fes dates: the canal fills with floating stalls and pop-ups.
- The Rinkai Line exit B is the closest; the monorail station is on the other side of the island.
- Mural hunting is free and easy: walk the warehouse streets behind the boardwalk.
