Have you ever wondered what is under the Capital Area of Japan?👀🏙️🌧️
These incredible columns are part of the Metropolitan Outer Area Underground Discharge Channel in Saitama Prefecture. While they appear to be out of a futuristic sci-fi movie, this vast space diverts any potential floodwaters away from Tokyo. The channel tour allows visitors to view this majestic scenery and understand the necessity of the water control facility.
