About
Red and black lacquered bridge at the entrance to sacred mountains, framed by dense forest.
This historic bridge marks the entrance to Nikkō's sacred mountains. Its red and black lacquered structure stands out against a lush forest backdrop, especially striking in autumn. Short but photogenic, it requires an admission fee to cross.
