Geocache Description:

Located near Kitaakabane station in Kitaku ward, near an abandoned pool.

北赤羽駅(北区)近くにある閉鎖されたプールの周辺に

Lately, many foreigners living in Japan have become interested in an activity most refer to as "haikyo" - usually known as "urban exploration" outside of Japan. It is basically the non-destructive exploration of ruins: abandoned villages, theme parks, and any man made structures that time forgot. A quick google for "haikyo" will show you many blogs related to this activity.
This cache is located near an abandoned kids pool which clearly hasn't been maintained for several years. Haikyo areas have an eerie feeling - and this one is no exception.

最近、日本に住むたくさんの外国人が廃墟めぐり-閉鎖されたテーマパーク、遊園地などを訪れる-に興味を持っている。 Googleで‘廃墟’と検索すると多くのブログが見つかるだろう。
このキャッシュはそんな‘ミニ廃墟’の近くに隠されている。 おそらく何年も前に閉鎖され、誰にも管理されていないであろう子供用のプールがある。 この廃墟の周辺は少し薄気味悪い感じがするかもしれない。

NOTE: Please bring a pen to sign the log!
