関屋大橋, Transportation bridge in Niigata, Japan
Sekiya Bridge is a road bridge spanning a waterway in Niigata, connecting different areas of the city across six concrete arches. The structure features granite cladding on its support elements, giving it a formal appearance.
Built during Niigata's modern development period, the bridge has connected different parts of the city since its completion. It played an important role in improving urban transportation links at that time.
The bridge stands as a meeting point for local residents and provides views of traditional festivals and celebrations throughout the year.
The bridge is easily walkable and accessible by vehicle from Niigata Station, which is about 15 minutes on foot or a short bus ride away. The main access routes from the station lead directly to it.
During evening hours, the bridge features special lighting systems that create interesting reflections on the water surface below. This illumination makes crossing the bridge particularly visible at night.
