Taiko-bashi bridge 太鼓橋

Taiko-bashi over the Meguro River was a stone bridge built by merchants of the Edo's Hatchōbori area
who used their private funds taking six years from 1764 (the fourteenth year of Hōreki) to complete it.
The bridge was called Taiko-bashi for its round shape and also for its resemblance to a drum.
