Top ways to experience Nihonbashi Bridge and nearby attractions

The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Ginza / Tokyo Nihonbashi
Ginza is famous for being a trendy hotspot, but it's also a downtown area with shops that were founded over a hundred years ago. Department stores and luxury boutiques line the route from Nihonbashi to Ginza. It's a long established tradition to shop and stroll while the road is closed to traffic. Luxury hotels, world class cuisine from talented chefs, and a collection of glitzy clubs will make this area popular with anyone looking for a night out.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Nihonbashi, as a district, sneaks up on you: there are some very nice scenic and upscale dining areas but local knowledge and fluency in Japanese is adventageous almost to the point of necessity. Neither, however, is required if you're simply checking out Nihonbashi Bridge, which I'd venture to say is the most important bridge in Japan's history. It's a five-minute walk from the Tokyo Station, so if you've got over an hour before your bullet train is fired, you can easily walk to the bridge and back. The original wooden bridge was built in 1603 and called the Edo Bridge (Edo-bashi). However a zero milestone was placed in the center of the bridge, and major roads to connecting Tokyo to the far corners of the country started here. Hence the name change to Nihon-bashi (Japan Bridge). A model of the old bridge is in the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Just over a century ago, the wooden bridge was replaced by a stone bridge in a Renaissance style, and decorated with bronze lions and dragons. The milestone itself was removed to a square beside the bridge in 1972, and a flat plaque laid into the bridge instead. In olden days the bridge commanded an impressive view of Fuji-san, but in anticipation of the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, the government built an expressway over Nihon-bashi, thoroughly ruining the view. They've another Tokyo Olympics coming up in 2020; hopefully the government has no plans to anticipate that one by any other nefarious plot against the bridge, such as dynamiting the old girl to Kingdom Come. Not worth going out of your way to see, but a pleasant relict of both the shogunate and Meiji periods, if you're in the neighborhood.

This is a business center, and expect people in corporate attire to be the main people you will see walking down the street. What is good about this area is that it is rarely crowded past the rush hour. The area is perfect for jogging, and the Imperial Palace running area is also near should you desire a change of scenery. There is an abundance of eateries and convenience stores in and out of the huge buildings that make up Nihonbashi, and Takashimaya as well as Mitsokoshi will surely satisfy the luxury shopper inside of you.

Beyond 11 PM when the stalls and shops are closed, the area is dead silent and you can be reassured of a great rest for your Tokyo adventure the following day.

And since this is the center of Tokyo, lots of attractions are but a train ride away.

The center point where all mileage points are set. Historically interesting. The road intersection at the bridge will lead to major cities in Japan just as it has for the last several centuries.

Nihonbashi Bridge is an iconic bridge of Tokyo.
It is for history loving people. And spend some time to explore the local shops nearby.

This bridge has a long history and is by itself gorgeous with carvings and statues. However, the stark juxtaposition of old and new doesn’t sit particularly well together!

It is a pity that this historical landmark is hidden under an awful highway. Very noisy place. And the river below is polluted

An interesting historical place. All distances in Japan used to be measured from here. Pity about the freeway over the top, but that's Japan!

I don't know whether or not it's because when I first stayed in Tokyo, I stayed in this area, I have special feelings about this area. The Nihombashi area overall is quieter than its other places such as Ginza, Ikebukuro, or Shinjuku. We went to this area for dinner. When we came out, it was night fall. Beautiful nightfall lights and not that crowded. Some of my friends mistaken this place as Ginza when they saw the pictures. It is really Nihombashi at Mitsukoshi area. Great place to look for dinner eats, a great place for a night walk.
