The Takachiho Bridge, completed in 1955, spans the Gokase River near the Takachiho Gorge and serves as a notable landmark. While it once carried National Route 218, it now carries Prefectural Route 203. Visitors can appreciate its architecture from the Takachiho Gorge walking trail, where it forms part of the scenic "Takachiho Three Bridges" view, along with Shin'yo Takachiho Bridge and Kami Bridge. The bridge is easily accessible by car, with free parking available nearby, making it a convenient starting point for exploring the gorge and its surroundings. The best views of the bridge are from the walking trail leading to Manai Falls, offering a unique perspective of the valley.
