Mama no Tsugihashi

Located in front of Mamasan Guhoji Temple's Niomon Gate, Mama no Tsugihashi features red parapets and stands beneath stone steps connecting different paths.

During the Edo period, the bridge served as a vital connection point along Daimon Dori Street, which linked the ancient capitals of Kazusa and Shimousa provinces.

The bridge appears in numerous classical Japanese poems from the Manyoshu collection, including works that celebrate the surrounding natural landscape and local traditions.

Visitors can reach the bridge site through local train services, with convenient connections from both Narita and Haneda International Airports to the Mama district.

A stone tablet placed in 1696 by Nagayori Suzuki and Nittei marks the historical significance of the bridge's location near the former Mama Creek area.
