Harimayabashi Bridge, located in Kōchi, Japan, is a small but historically significant bridge that spans the Harimaya River. It is best known for its association with a popular local folktale about a forbidden romance between a Buddhist monk named Junshin and a merchant's daughter named Ouma. The bridge has become a symbol of love and secrecy in Japanese culture. The current structure is a reconstruction, maintaining the traditional design and serving as a picturesque spot for tourists and locals.
