旭川大橋

The Asahikawa Ohashi Bridge spans 225 meters across the Ishikari River with a width of 18 meters, connecting both sides of the northern Japanese city.

Built in 1932 using German steel, this bridge replaced a wooden structure to support military vehicles during a period of increased defense requirements.

The bridge stands as a central element in Asahikawa's infrastructure, marking the connection between the city center and residential districts across the Ishikari River.

Located 1.8 kilometers from JR Asahikawa Station, visitors can reach the bridge by taking a bus to Tokiwa-koen stop followed by a 200-meter walk.

The bridge carries Route 40 traffic and provides clear views of the surrounding mountains, while connecting to numerous local attractions including Otokoyama Sake Museum.
