Shin-kyō

This much-photographed red footbridge over the Daiya-gawa is located at the sacred spot where Shōdō Shōnin is said to have been carried across the Daiya-gawa on the backs of two giant serpents. It's a 1907 reconstruction; the 17th-century original was washed away by floods.

The entrance fee allows you to walk upon it but not cross it.
