Shinagawa Uchimizu Project 2024:
Let’s Lower the City’s Midsummer Temperature by 2℃

Uchimizu (sprinkling water on the ground) in midsummer brings a cool breeze to our city.

Dates: July 22 (Mon.) to Aug. 22 (Thu.)

Uchimizu procedures:
1. Have water ready.
It is a good idea to use recycled water such as water left over after a bath.

2. Sprinkle the water on the ground.
Sprinkle the water together with your family and neighbors.

3. Enjoy the coolness.
The water sprinkled on the ground will cool the surroundings. If you do this in the morning and evening, the cooling effect lasts longer.

Note: Shinagawa City is offering rental goods for uchimizu (ladles, pails, buckets and flags). For details, please visit the Shinagawa City website.
