Kamikochi Kappa-bashi Bridge

So crowded that no Kappa were spotted!

Kappa-bashi Bridge is the busiest spot in Kamikochi, and sometimes feels like the famous Shibuya Crossing intersection. People are always coming and going, taking pictures near or on the bridge, having a break during their hikes, and just sitting and enjoying the beautiful views. But after dark comes a tranquil silence.

I felt a mysterious moment between the daytime and night at Kappa-bashi Bridge. In the story “Kappa” written by Ryunosuke Akutagawa, a Kappa (water sprite) appears near this bridge probably at such a moment. I stayed at a hotel next to the bridge, and waited to spot Kappa. I searched for Kappa for three days, but sorry to say, I couldn’t find any to show you in this video!
