Toshima Wetland

Toshima Wetland

【Description】
Although the water is as deep as one meter in places, people have cultivated rice in this wetland. The terrain makes the use of agricultural machinery impossible. The back-breaking work of growing rice here thus earned the area the moniker "the wife-killing fields," as women have traditionally worked the rice paddies. In 2005, a typhoon flooded the area, after which the city bought up the land and turned it into a wetland park.
