Visit Report: Azuma Bridge

Azuma Bridge connects the Senso-ji Temple area with the Tokyo Skytree area.

One of Asakusa's historic structures, it was repainted in vermillion in the early Heisei period to harmonize with the traditional Asakusa atmosphere.

From the bridge, you can enjoy views of Tokyo Skytree and the Asahi Beer headquarters building, while the south sidewalk offers glimpses of Komagata Bridge and Umaya Bridge as well.

At night, Azuma Bridge itself is illuminated, making the red bridge glow even more beautifully.

The area around Azuma Bridge features numerous illuminated bridges and nightscape spots perfect for evening strolls.

Be sure to stop by after your Asakusa sightseeing adventure.
