Honkawa Bridge, Road bridge in Naka-ku, Japan.

The Honkawa Bridge spans across the river, connecting different sections of central Hiroshima with its concrete and steel structure.

Built in 1897, the bridge underwent complete reconstruction after sustaining extensive damage during the atomic bomb explosion of August 1945.

The bridge serves as a silent witness to Hiroshima's transformation, standing near numerous memorials dedicated to atomic bomb victims.

The structure accommodates both vehicle and pedestrian traffic, providing direct access to the Peace Memorial Park and surrounding neighborhoods.

Several geocaching activities occurred at the bridge, including a traditional cache placed at coordinates 34.393722, 132.450611 in October 2014.
