Chidori Bridge, Stone bridge in Bunkyo, Japan

Chidori Bridge connects different paths within Rikugien Garden, providing passage for cyclists and pedestrians near a cascading waterfall.

The bridge stands within Rikugien Garden, constructed during the early 18th century under the direction of Yanagisawa Yoshiyasu, a prominent Edo period figure.

The bridge design incorporates traditional Japanese stonework methods, reflecting architectural techniques that have persisted through generations in Japanese garden construction.

The bridge serves as a crucial connection point for visitors exploring the garden, with an entrance fee required to access the grounds and surrounding attractions.

Numerous koi fish swim beneath the bridge's stone structure, creating patterns in the water visible from the viewing points along its path.
