A Goldenrod Solidago by the appearance of it? This genus has many species which can grow very tall indeed.

Thank you for ID, Birna.  Yes, it looks like the flower of that species.  It is called "Seitaka Awadachi-sou" in Japanese, and "Seitaka" means indeed "tall".  It is extremely invasive and excessively abundant on the river banks.
