The Blue Wing Moji, one of the symbols of the Moji Port Retro District, is a drawbridge exclusively for pedestrians. The bridge, painted in a vivid blue, is 108m long and 6m wide. The way the bridge rises is as beautiful as if blue wings are flapping, attracting many tourists.
Highlights
- Elegant Opening and Closing: The bridge rises regularly six times a day. The way it slowly opens and closes each time a ship passes is as if blue wings are flapping and is truly worth seeing. Especially the nighttime opening and closing with lights is fantastic and creates a romantic atmosphere.
- Superb View from the Bridge: From the top of the bridge, you can have a panoramic view of the Kanmon Strait and the townscape of the Moji Port Retro District. Especially at dusk, the beautiful sunset dyes the strait, creating an inspiring scene.
- Strolling in the Vicinity: There are many attractive tourist spots scattered around Blue Wing Moji, such as the Moji Port Retro District and Mekari Park. After crossing the bridge, let’s stroll around the area and fully enjoy the charm of Moji Port.
