Photo Spot Offering Scenic Views Where Sea and Iron Bridge Meet

About this spot

An iron bridge on the JR Sanin Main Line spanning the mouth of the Yura River where it flows into Wakasa Bay, known as a photography spot offering the rare sight of a train crossing right beside the sea. The bridge has been featured as a film location and offers a view so captivating that even non-railroad enthusiasts will want to snap a photo. From the beach at the base of the bridge, you can also see the horizon of Wakasa Bay stretching out, building anticipation for the upcoming Kanzaki Beach. Visiting at the time of train passage will allow for even more dramatic photographs.
