“C” GPS Art Embracing the Nature and History of Todoroki Ravine✨
International cooperation by GPS art of “C” onto Tokyo! From March 8 (Saturday) to May 31 (Saturday), 2025, a new project of “Walk in Her Shoes 2025”, “Let’s Walk and Draw “C” on the Earth! Let’s start GPS art!
Walk in Her Shoes 2025″ is an international cooperation program to raise awareness about global water issues and the current situation of women and girls in developing countries by simply walking at a time and place of your choice. Let’s draw the “C” of CARE with GPS art and send it to the world!
GPS art in Todoroki Ravine Park in Tokyo’s Setagaya Ward. Known as the only ravine in the 23 wards of Tokyo, Todoroki Ravine is a healing spot rich in nature located in Setagaya Ward. The 4-km-long course is a valuable experience that allows visitors to walk through the valley while feeling the charm of the valley, which is woven with nature and history.
Todoroki Ravine is a valley formed along the Kokubunji Cliff Line, and the flow of the Tanizawa River, a tributary of the Tama River, creates a beautiful landscape. The valley is dotted with bamboo groves, waterfalls, and springs, and is popular with many people because they can enjoy the changing nature of the four seasons even in the city. The course also includes Todoroki Fudoson, which has been used as a place for ascetic practices since ancient times, a Japanese garden, and a lawn area, allowing visitors to experience history and culture firsthand.
This year, by walking or running and leaving a trail of the “C” of CARE and posting the saved GPS image on Facebook, X (Twitter), and Instagram with the two hashtags “#Walking for InternationalCooperation2025” and “#GPSArt,” you can donate 100 yen.
We are also developing a Walk in Her Shoes 2025 version of the “Reply Art” developed by the “Hokuriku GPS Art Club”. Please try this one as well!
