[2025 Miyoshi Attraction] Travel Guide for Vine Bridge in the Iya Valley (Updated Apr)

Shikoku is one of the best places for a road trip. Due to the underdeveloped railway network and scattered attractions, driving is the best way to fully enjoy the trip. First, we recommend visiting Tokushima's Iya Valley, which is far from any train station and lacks direct bus access. The Iya Vine Bridge, located in Miyoshi City, Tokushima Prefecture, is one of Japan's three most unusual bridges. This bridge spans the Iya River, is about 45 meters long, and is woven from vines. Walking on it, you can see the flowing water of the valley below, which is thrilling and exciting. The history of the Iya Vine Bridge dates back to ancient times and is said to have been built to prevent enemy pursuit, with the ability to be quickly cut down if necessary. Near the Iya Vine Bridge, there is the famous Shin-Iya Onsen Kazurabashi Hotel. The hot spring facilities here include an open-air bath with a view of the Iya Valley, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful scenery while soaking. The hot spring water is a simple sulfur spring, which helps to relieve fatigue and beautify the skin. Staying at the nearby hot spring hotel for a night, you can enjoy the illuminated night view again in the evening. The best seasons to visit the Iya Vine Bridge are spring and autumn. The cherry blossoms in spring and the autumn foliage add vibrant colors to the valley, making it the best time for photography and enjoying natural beauty. The lush greenery of summer and the snowy scenery of winter also have their own charm, suitable for visitors in different seasons to experience. You can reach the Iya Vine Bridge by driving along Prefectural Route 32. There is a parking lot near the Iya Vine Bridge, making it convenient for road trippers to park.

"Iya Man Bridge", one of the three wonders of Japan, is a rare trip to Shikoku, so of course it should be included in the itinerary! Rarely seen 👍🏻 This bridge built using vines, made of approximately 6 tons of vines and wood, 45 meters long and 2 meters wide, is now listed as an important tangible folk cultural property. Whenever you walk across the vine bridge, you can look at the clear river water from the seams under the wooden boards, plus the occasional rocking and shaking, which is always scary, but also very interesting😄!

Man Bridge is an ancient suspension bridge, 45 meters long, 2 meters wide, and 14 meters above the river. It is woven with mountain vines and steel cables. It was an important lifeline for mountain residents in the past. Originally, such bridges were everywhere, but now there are only a few left. Now it is used for sightseeing, allowing tourists to step onto the Man Bridge and experience the scene of mountain residents crossing the bridge in the past! The vine bridge is one-way, and most people will walk forward while holding on to the vines on both sides. It doesn’t seem too scary when standing on the side of the bridge, because I am used to playing exciting amusement rides! You can immediately feel the fear and excitement when you stand on the bridge. Looking down from the bridge, you can see that the gaps between the wooden boards are quite large, and some of the boards seem to be very thin. It would be a bit weak to walk without holding on to the sides! In addition, many people walking on the bridge at the same time will cause the bridge to shake and vibrate from time to time. You really don’t know unless you experience it yourself! Iya Gorge is located deep in the mountains of Shikoku and still retains its unspoiled natural scenery. Looking down from the bridge, you can clearly see the clear water of the Iya Gorge!

The "Iya Kaze Bridge" is located in Miyoshi City, Tokushima Prefecture, Japan. It is an original suspension bridge built on natural vines over the Iya Gorge. The vine bridge is built with vines and is 14 meters above the river. When you walk on it, the suspension bridge will shake. The bridge deck is made only of logs and firewood. As you cross the bridge, you can enjoy the beautiful view of the clear river and deep green valley. When you are on the bridge, you will immediately feel the constant shaking and swaying of the bridge deck. In addition, the footrests of the bridge deck are made of semi-cylindrical tree trunks, with a gap of about 1.5 to 2 inches between the trunks, so you can see the river and riverbed under the bridge.

When I visited the Iya Vine Bridge, I was overwhelmed by its unique structure and the way it blended seamlessly with the natural scenery. This suspension bridge, made by weaving together vines (shirakuchikazura), is a valuable cultural heritage that has been used for daily life since ancient times. On both sides of the bridge, deep valleys spread out, and a clear river flows below. As I prepared to cross the bridge, I could see the river below through the gaps at my feet, which made me freeze in my tracks. The bridge swayed and creaked with each step, so I proceeded cautiously, one step at a time. It was a thrilling experience, but when I looked up midway, I was struck by the beautiful mountains and valleys surrounding me, feeling as if I was melting into nature. When I finally made it across, I was filled with a sense of accomplishment and relief. Looking back, I couldn't help but appreciate the bridge's architectural beauty and historical significance. Nearby, there are tourist facilities and shops where you can enjoy local specialties, adding to the charm. The Iya Vine Bridge is not just a tourist attraction but a precious heritage filled with the wisdom and ingenuity of the people of the past. It was an unforgettable experience where I could simultaneously enjoy the beauty and thrill harmonized with nature.

Udatsu merchant houses line the streets along the 400m-long street. "Udatsu" refers to a small wall between the roofs of the first and second floors. They were attached to the boundary between neighboring houses as a fire prevention wall, and wealthy merchants competed to build udatsu to show off their wealth, which is why it is called Udatsu Townscape. Although the street is compact, there are cafes and souvenir shops scattered around, making it just the right distance for a stroll. You can reach Udatsu street by parking at the nearby roadside station "Ai Land Udatsu" (free parking) and walking through the Funakiba Park that spreads out around the indigo merchant Sasano Yoshida family residence. Food🍽️: "Aikura" in Udatsu street in Wakimachi, Mima city. I had the famous Awaodori chicken steamed in a bamboo steamer! It was very filling and delicious! #HongKongFreeAirTicket #TokushimaTourism #TokushimaTrip

#樱花2024 If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of big cities, the Shikoku region of Japan 🇯🇵 is a good place to start a comfortable and healing journey 😌. The Shikoku region consists of Kagawa Prefecture, Tokushima Prefecture, Kochi Prefecture, Ehime Prefecture, and islands in the Seto Inland Sea. Among them, Oboke in Tokushima Prefecture and the canyon landscape and hot springs in the Iya area are very famous😍. The hot springs in Iya have a long history and are known as one of the three secret hot springs in Japan♨️. We chose to stay in a hot spring hotel in Iya🏨 and enjoy a one night, two meals trip. At night, we enjoyed the comfort and therapeutic effects of the hot springs and immersed ourselves in the embrace of nature🥰. The next morning we arrived at Oboke Gorge and took a sightseeing boat. Guided by an experienced boatman, we admired the beauty of the Oboke Gorge valley up close. Then we went to the nearby Iya Kazuha Bridge, which is hand-woven with wisteria using traditional techniques and reinforced with hidden steel cables. The Man Bridge spans a steep valley, with turbulent river water rushing under the bridge. Although it is very safe after being reinforced, it is still shaky when you walk on it. If you are afraid of heights, you really dare not walk on it. After mustering up the courage to walk up, overlooking the magnificent view of the canyon from the bridge, you will really be shocked by the unique beauty of nature☺️. 📍Location: Nishiu, Yamashiro-cho, Miyoshi City, Tokushima Prefecture, Japan 🚝Transportation: JR Dosan Line Oboke Station #Overseas Travel #Japan Travel #Japanese Attractions #Shikoku #Tokushima

This trip to Takamatsu was specially arranged to visit Oboke. Takamatsu takes about an hour and a half by JR. Dabu Ke Station is an unmanned station. After walking out of the station, you will see houses and shops. The bus station is also nearby. There are buses running through various scenic spots in Dabuwei, such as the Vine Bridge and the tour boat boarding area. However, the bus frequency is less frequent, so it is recommended to arrange your trip in advance. If you don't take the bus, you can also walk slowly along the trails beside the highway. The scenery along the way is also beautiful. The first stop is the famous secret spot, Iya Vine Bridge. After getting off the bus, you can walk a short distance to the entrance. If you don’t want to walk through the vine bridge, you can admire the vine bridge and take photos on the opposite cement bridge. There is a fee to cross the vine bridge, 550 yen for adults and 350 yen for children. You can only cross the vine bridge in one direction from the toll office, and you cannot swing on it. Although the vine bridge will be reinforced and repaired regularly, when you walk up it, you will find that the vine bridge will sway slightly, and the gap between the pedals is very wide. Fortunately, the vine bridge is not long, so you can walk slowly and concentrate on it, and it will take a few minutes to complete it. When walking across the vine bridge, you need to be careful with your personal belongings to avoid slipping off. After walking over the Manqiao bridge, you can go further to Pipa Waterfall, a small waterfall, but the river water is also clear, so it’s good for taking pictures.
