One of Japan's most traditional and historical bridges is located in Yamaguchi in the city of Iwakuni. Every year this world heritage site is the location of the annual fireworks festival held at the beginning of August.

Food and game stalls are set up on the sandy area near the bridge and taiko performances start at dusk.
