Yanagibashi Bridge, Steel arch bridge in Higashi-Nihonbashi, Japan
The Yanagibashi Bridge spans the Kanda River with a solid-ribbed arch structure, connecting Higashi-Nihonbashi and Taito districts in central Tokyo.
Originally constructed in 1698 as a wooden bridge, Yanagibashi underwent multiple reconstructions until its current steel form was completed in 1929 following the Great Kanto Earthquake.
The bridge area developed into a prominent entertainment district during the Edo and Meiji periods, with numerous traditional inns and restaurants establishing themselves along its banks.
Located 270 meters from Asakusabashi Station and 420 meters from Higashi-Nihonbashi Station, the bridge serves as a vital connection point for pedestrians and vehicles.
The bridge features distinctive balance bowls in its design, influenced by the architectural elements of the Eitai Bridge, and received cultural property status in 1999.
