Megami Bridge, Footbridge in Minatomirai and Shinkō districts, Yokohama, Japan.
The Megami Bridge is a pedestrian crossing that links two waterfront parks across a small harbor basin in Yokohama. Its steel structure allows open views of the water and the surrounding port area from the path itself.
The crossing opened in 2020 as a new link between the two districts that were previously less directly connected. It represents part of Yokohama's ongoing efforts to improve pedestrian access across its waterfront zones.
The bridge frames views of the harbor and the parks on either side, which are popular spots for people to walk and relax throughout the day. The crossing itself has become part of the local route for residents moving between the two districts.
The crossing is freely accessible and one of the regular pedestrian routes through the harbor area, especially on pleasant days. The path is level and easy to walk for most people, with railings along the entire length.
The place transforms throughout the day depending on light and shadows, with evening illumination creating a different mood than daylight hours. Most visitors use it simply as a route and overlook how the lighting changes the entire character of the crossing.
