Nishiki Bridge, Pedestrian bridge in Kita-ku, Japan.

The Nishikibashi Bridge spans 55 meters across the Tosabori River with a reinforced concrete arch structure and measures 10.55 meters in width.

Initially constructed in 1931 as a movable weir on the Tosabori River, the bridge underwent substantial renovations in 1985 when it received its current name.

The bridge surface displays ceramic tiles featuring ukiyo-e prints depicting bridges from the late Edo to early Meiji periods of Osaka's history.

Located south of the Asahi Festival Hall, the bridge connects Edo-bori 1-chome in Nishi-ku to Nakanoshima 2-chome in Kita-ku district.

The bridge received the 1986 Handmade Hometown Award for its architectural merit and contribution to local heritage preservation.
