Kyo Bridge, Historic bridge in central Okayama, Japan
The Kyo Bridge extends 155 meters across the Katsura River, connecting different sections of Okayama with its reinforced concrete structure and cypress parapets.
First established in 836, the current Kyo Bridge was reconstructed in 1934 to improve local transportation while maintaining traditional Japanese architectural elements.
The bridge holds connections to Emperor Kameyama from the Kamakura period and serves as a central location for summer cormorant fishing demonstrations.
The structure provides essential transportation access for vehicles and pedestrians, connecting residential areas with commercial districts in central Okayama.
During spring and autumn, the bridge offers views of seasonal changes, with cherry blossoms and maple trees creating natural displays along its spans.
