Early - Late Nov 2025
Ibaraki's Ryujin Suspension Bridge spans 375 meters in length and offers some stunning views of the surrounding area, especially during the fall foliage season when the leaves are changing. The Ryujinkyo Autumn Foliage Festival has been running for over 30 years as a way to appreciate the colors of the season from an amazing vantage point.
Normally, there is a bridge crossing fee of 320 yen for adults, but on Ibaraki Prefectural Citizen's Day (Monday, November 13th) the fee will be waived.
