The Himinokyo Bridge, also known as the Himinoe Grand Bridge, is a striking cable-stayed bridge that serves as a "path connecting the sea, harbor, and city." Located in Himi, Toyama Prefecture, it's easily accessible 12 minutes (4 km) by car from the Noetsu Expressway Himi IC. The bridge features a 51-meter-high main tower and is illuminated with seasonal colors in the evenings: white in spring and autumn (sunset to 10:00 PM), light blue in summer (sunset to 11:00 PM), and pale yellow in winter (sunset to 9:00 PM). Visitors can enjoy scenic views of the surrounding area, especially from the nearby Himinoe Park observation deck. It connects Himi Port with the Himi Banya Street.
