A wooden-railed bridge crossing the Katsura River, framed by the Arashiyama hills behind it — a scene that appears on Kyoto postcards in every season. Legend holds the name, meaning 'moon crossing bridge,' comes from a Kamakura-era emperor remarking the moon looked as if it were crossing the bridge. It gets crowded during cherry blossom and autumn leaf season, but you can also take a boat ride on the river and pass beneath it.
