Kintai Bridge

An absolutely beautiful bridge in a quaint and quiet location. There is a cable car nearby that can take you to the castle. Otherwise, you can enjoy your time walking around on River rocks, meandering in the river, walking across the famous bridge, or exploring the nearby town. There is a beautiful park just across the bridge with plenty of shrines and Tori Gates. I would absolutely recommend this to a friend

Simply iconic. One of the best examples of interlocking wooden architecture. Always nice to view from a torch-lit dinner aboard a traditional cormorant fishing boat. Convenient bus station hub located a 1/2 block to the northeast of the bridge.

Definitely worth the visit especially when the weather isn’t hot. For those who are into architecture, the design of the bridge and how it was build and is currently standing will be provide a great exposure and definitely a worth visiting experience. The bridge combined with the museums and the castle is a great one day away trip from Hiroshima or any other nearby city. The nature, mountains and pure air was amazing. Totally recommended and the full entrance fee for all activities (bridge, cable rope, museums and the castle) is around ~¥1500 per adult.

Grand bridge, with a small peaceful town owned by a family, lots of great scenic spots, there is a bamboo park, a temple with a pond filled with the largest Koi i have ever seen. Then there is the tram that takes you to the Castle up the mountain. This city was one of my favorites in Japan. I could retire here.

Visited in late March and it was such a beautiful place to visit! Not too difficult to get to but please do take note of the bus timings and plan accordingly. Try to visit earlier so there are less people on the bridge so you can get your perfect shots!
