Overview

Nene Bridge spans the Goshogawa River in the heart of Arima Onsen town. Its beautiful red railing evokes a sense of history. It's named after Nene (Kitano-mandokoro), the wife of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who built a villa in Arima and spent time here with Hideyoshi, soaking in the *kin-sen* (golden hot springs) and escaping the turmoil of war. A statue of Nene stands at the foot of the bridge, adding to its historical significance. Nene is known for supporting the Toyotomi clan and actively participating in politics after Hideyoshi's death. As you cross Nene Bridge, reflect on Nene's life and the history of Arima Onsen.
