Tsunoshima Bridge

角島大橋

Tsunoshima Bridge links the mainland with Tsunoshima Island in northern Shimonoseki. At 1,780 meters, it is one of the longest toll-free public road bridges in Japan. White sand beaches and cobalt-blue sea make it a famous scenic spot that often appears in TV commercials. Visitors enjoy walking, cycling and taking photos, especially on clear summer days.

Getting there

Good to know

  • Amagase Park has free parking for 46 cars.
  • The bridge is lit up all year from sunset to sunrise.

Tips for Muslim visitors

  • There is no footpath on the 1,780 m bridge, so be careful of traffic.
  • Buses from Takibe Station to the bridge are limited.
  • There are restaurants scattered around the island.
  • Natural sites may have few facilities. Bring water, a travel prayer mat and a qibla app, and check the weather; mountains and lakes can be much colder than the city.
  • Restrooms for wudu can be far apart on trails. Many Muslim travellers carry a small water bottle for wudu.
  • Plan your visit around prayer times. Below are today's prayer times for Yamaguchi and the verified places to pray nearby.
  • Food stalls and shops near popular sights usually do not have halal certification. Check the ingredients, or choose from the verified places on this site.
