Visit Report: Kachidoki Bridge

Kachidoki Bridge was built in 1940, with its name originating from Japan's victory in the Russo-Japanese War.

After sunset, the bridge's illumination begins and creates beautiful scenery until 11 PM.

The views from the pedestrian walkway are stunning, with distinctly Tokyo-like landscapes spreading out to both the east and west.

Beyond nighttime views, visiting Kachidoki Bridge in the morning during summer is also recommended.

The angle where Tsukuda Bridge is visible aligns with the sunrise position, so when conditions are right, you can enjoy incredibly beautiful views.
