Rainbow Bridge, Fuji TV Building at Odaiba
Daiba, literally meaning "fort", refers to some of the man made islands in the Bay of Tokyo, which were constructed in the end of the Edo Period (1603-1868). The platform site installed for a marine cannon battery that was constructed in haste to meet the emergent need for defense of Tokyo against the sudden appearance of black steel ships commanded by Commodore Perry from the United States in 1853.
