Nagahama Bridge is a historic bridge designated as an important cultural property in Ozu City, Ehime Prefecture. It is affectionately known as the red overpass and embodies a part of the modern and contemporary history, with traces of being shot at by fighter planes during the Pacific War.
Nagahama Bridge is not a large bridge, but its presence is anything but small. Despite its narrow width, it continues to serve as a daily means of crossing. Crossing the bridge, you can find the place where Ryoma Sakamoto stayed, allowing you to reflect on history.
As the evening sun shines, the red structure of Nagahama Bridge becomes even more striking, exuding a unique charm. Its quietly standing figure allows you to feel a profound taste that transcends time.
Currently, renovation work is being carried out on Nagahama Bridge, with some parts being covered with temporary boards. However, this effort is aimed at preserving its value as a national important cultural property and passing it on to the next generation.
Visiting Nagahama Bridge will allow you to experience the charm enveloped in history and charm. It is recommended to visit on foot from the tourist parking lot and leisurely enjoy the bridge's presence.
