Shinonome Bridge

The Shinonome Bridge stretches across the Kiso River with a solid steel truss design that incorporates triangular support patterns along its length.

Engineers constructed the Shinonome Bridge in 1931 during Japan's infrastructure modernization period, marking a shift from traditional wooden structures to steel engineering.

The Shinonome Bridge functions as a central meeting point for local residents who gather to observe seasonal changes along the Kiso River throughout the year.

The bridge serves as a primary transportation route across the Kiso River, connecting local communities and supporting both vehicular and pedestrian traffic daily.

Each triangular section of the bridge's steel truss structure creates distinct patterns of light and shadow on the river surface during different times of day.
