The One about the Geidai Taito Sumida Sightseeing Art Project

If you happen to be near Sumida Park near the river with the Tokyo Skytree in the background, you will see structures for the Geidai Taito Sumida Sightseeing Art Project.

The project was created by students and professors at Tokyo University of the Arts and the Geidai Taito Sumida Sightseeing Art Project (GTS) is a series of art pieces that run alongside the river walkway near Sumida Park (which is located between Sensoji Temple and Tokyo Skytree).   Here are a few things you will find in the project but the rest, you’ll need to discover on your own.
