Overview

Do you know Kintai Bridge? Located in Iwakuni City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, the bridge is widely known for its beauty, with five arches spanning a clear stream.
The area was ruled by the Kikkawa clan, a samurai clan during the feudal era, who built mansions, castles, and towns all over the area, including this bridge.
After crossing the beautiful bridge, visitors can enjoy the beautiful nature in the area where the mansions once stood, which has been well maintained. From there, take the ropeway to Iwakuni Castle, Kikkawa's castle on the mountain.
