Arakawa, 荒川 一丁目-八丁目 from first to 8th sub-district

Located in the middle of Arakawa ward, see map above.
The name comes from the river Arakawa. In 1932 the districts of 南千住 Minami-Senju, 日暮里 Nippori,
三河島 Mikawashima and 尾久 Ogu became part of Arakawa ward.
The river Arakawa was then relocated and called 隅田川 Sumidagawa.
