Ohashi

Ohashi Bridge crosses the Ohashi River and links different parts of Matsue together with a concrete structure that blends modern engineering with traditional design touches. The crossing spans approximately 300 meters and accommodates both vehicles and pedestrians throughout the day.

The bridge was built in 1956 to improve transportation connections across the river in Matsue. This construction replaced earlier crossing methods and became a key part of the city's infrastructure development.

The bridge serves as a gathering place where people meet during local celebrations and festivals throughout the year. Visitors can observe how residents use this space as part of their daily routines and community life.

The bridge is open to both pedestrians and vehicles throughout the day with dedicated walkways along the sides. You can access nearby parks and riverside paths easily from either end of the crossing.

After sunset the bridge's lighting system creates reflections on the river surface that shift with the seasons. This evening transformation makes the crossing look quite different from how it appears during daytime.
