Togetsukyo Bridge: Built in the Heian period in the 9th century, it was rebuilt after being destroyed by floods. Its name comes from the fact that Emperor Kameyama in the Kamakura period sighed that the moon seemed to move on the bridge when he was watching the moon. As the most representative scenery of Arashiyama, Togetsukyo Bridge has appeared in the ukiyo-e paintings of Utagawa Hiroshige and Katsushika Hokusai, and was mentioned in the song "Togetsukyo Bridge Thinking of You" sung by singer Mai Kuraki in "Detective Conan: Crimson Love Letter". The current Togetsukyo Bridge was built in 1934. It uses a concrete structure to carry vehicles, and the railings are made of wood, which blends in with the surrounding natural landscape. As the seasons change, spring cherry blossoms, summer greens, autumn maples, and winter snows attract countless tourists to raise their cameras to record this beautiful picture.
