Venus Bridge, Spiral footbridge in Suwayama Park, Kobe, Japan
Venus Bridge features curved pathways that connect different sections of Suwayama Park while offering views of Kobe city and its harbor from above.
The construction of Venus Bridge in 1971 marked a significant addition to Kobe's infrastructure, creating a new observation point above the city.
The bridge incorporates a dedicated space where visitors attach locks with written messages, following a modern tradition of expressing romantic commitments.
Visitors can reach Venus Bridge by taking a 15-minute walk from Kenchomae Station on the Kobe Subway line or a 30-minute walk from Sannomiya Station.
The spiral structure of Venus Bridge provides multiple angles for viewing the illuminated cityscape, Meriken Park, and Kobe Harborland throughout different times of day.
