Located in Chuo Ward and Miyakojima Ward, Osaka City. This bridge is located at the northern gateway to Osaka Castle. During the Edo period, it was the starting point for the Kyoto Kaido road to Kyoto and the Nozaki Mairi pilgrimage. Due to its importance, the shogunate designated it a public bridge (a bridge directly managed by the shogunate). The current Kyobashi Bridge was built in 1924. At the time, it was 73 meters long, but renovation work on the Neyagawa River from 1930 shortened it to 55 meters.
Although Kyobashi now refers to the area around Kyobashi Station in Miyakojima Ward and Joto Ward, the area originally called Kyobashi is said to have stretched from present-day Temmabashi Station to Kitahama Station. It is also quite a distance from JR Kyobashi Station.

この橋が元々の「京橋」です。現在の京橋駅や繁華街エリアからはずいぶん離れています。
元々、江戸時代の公儀橋で元和九年(1623年)造立との銘があったそうです。
現在の橋は、大正13年(1924年)に架け替えられた橋が、寝屋川の改修事業や昭和の改修によって現在の姿になったもので、オリジナルよりも短くなっています。
現在、すぐ裏にダブルツリーbyヒルトン大阪城のビルが建築中で、2023年中には竣工予定です。

Osaka Castle as seen from the pedestrian overpass at Kyobashi, Osaka Castle glimpsed from Tosabori Street,
The tunnel that goes under the Keihan Railway, I wonder if the tracks are separated above and below because they can't be widened horizontally? I think it's an irresistible spot for train enthusiasts, there's a bridge that leads to Tenma after going through the tunnel, it's a bit of a warp zone, lots of people on bicycles go through the tunnel so I was curious where they were all going,
Today I was able to visit three places: Kyobashi, Osakabashi, and Kawasakibashi.
Speaking of which, everyone goes there during the Tenjin Festival, it seems like you can get a good view there.
