In some seasons, you can see fireflies if you visit at night, but I came at noon^^

It's just a normal bridge with stairs.

disillusionment Many tourists come to Yufuin with their pets, but this riverside road off Yunotsubo Kaido is covered in feces everywhere. It's so hard to even walk. It's not Yunotsubo Kaido, it's like U○ko Kaido. The image of Yufuin has become quite bad.

Visited on 6/17 It seemed to be late in the season, so there was no light from the fireflies at all. . . It was said that if the timing was right enough to give the bridge its name, it would be a spectacular sight to see, but unfortunately the timing seemed to have been missed. I came here for sightseeing and took a 20 minute walk from where I was staying, but all I could see was two lights at Yufumi Bridge in the foreground. Yufumi Bridge and Hotarukan Bridge are also said to be firefly spots, so I thought I'd like to go back there someday. I didn't see any fireflies, but I think it was a luxurious time after soaking in the hot springs and walking around the area!

After dinner at the inn, I came to see the fireflies. I couldn't find it on this Hotarukanbashi Bridge. I heard from the people at the hotel that they had seen it near Lake Kinrin a few days ago, and some reviews said that it had been seen near the back of Kamenoi Villa, so I went upstream along the river and caught a glimpse of it. I was able to. It was about 200 meters upstream from Hotaru no Yado Sendo. (Early June 2022, around 20:30)
