About This Attraction

The Japanese Covered Bridge in Hoi An is an iconic historical landmark, showcasing the unique blend of Japanese and Vietnamese architecture. Built in the early 17th century by the Japanese community in Hoi An, the bridge originally served as a means of connecting two parts of the town. It features a roofed structure, which provides shelter from the sun and rain, making it a practical walkway for pedestrians. The bridge is adorned with intricate carvings and sculptures, including statues of dogs and monkeys, representing the years they were built and completed.

Visitors should note that while there is no entrance fee to walk across the bridge, contributions are appreciated to help with its maintenance. The Japanese Covered Bridge opening hours are generally from early morning until late evening, allowing ample time for exploration during a visit to Hoi An. Its location in the ancient town makes it easily accessible on foot or by bicycle from most accommodations. This historic site remains one of Hoi Ans most photographed spots, attracting tourists and locals alike who appreciate its cultural significance.
