Don't miss the amazing finale starting @ 8:42. This was the annual Katsushika Noryo Hanabi Taikai held on the banks of the Edo River in Tokyo. This year's 1-hour show was on Tues. July 27, 2010. Boom Factor -- 10000 works. Nearest station: Shibamata Sta., on the Keisei Kanamachi Line, very near the famous Yagiri-no-Watashi boat crossing. The best-kept secret about this fireworks display is that although most people arrive by train from the west side of the river which is the main viewing area (and thus is CRAZY crowded), they open up the golf course on the east side, allowing folks to spread out their plastic sheets on the fresh cool, green grass. I didn't have anyone within 30 ft. of me while filming this !
