大池橋

Oike Bridge is a modern cable-stayed bridge in Osaka that crosses a waterway and connects two sections of the city. The structure features a pedestrian walkway and dedicated bicycle lanes for all users.

This location has served as an important crossing between different city districts since the Edo period as Osaka expanded. The modern bridge was later constructed to maintain the significance of this vital transport junction.

The bridge serves as a gathering space during local celebrations such as spring cherry blossom season and the summer Tenjin Festival boat procession. People use it to participate in these events and enjoy views of the waterways below.

The bridge is accessible throughout the day and sits within a 7-minute walk from Temmabashi Station on the Keihan Main Line. Visitors can comfortably cross on foot or by bicycle with continuous access available.

The bridge received recognition from the Japan Society of Civil Engineers for its design that minimizes vibrations during use. This technical innovation allows pedestrians and cyclists to cross simultaneously in safety and comfort.
