    • Modern_architecture(buildings_bridges_towers)
    Tsukuda Ohashi Bridge was constructed in 1964—the year of the Tokyo Olympics—to replace the "Tsukuda-no-watashi" ferry service. Previously, the Tsukuda River flowed between the islands of Tsukudajima and Tsukishima, but it was filled in during the construction of the bridge, physically connecting the two islands. As part of this process, the old Tsukuda Bridge that spanned the river was removed. The completion of the bridge also brought an end to the ferry service that had operated for over 300 years since the Edo period. Today, reliefs detailing the history and origins of Tsukuda Ohashi Bridge are installed on the bridge's railings.
