Rainbow Bridge
If you are a long-time fan of Japanese dramas, you will definitely recognise the iconic Rainbow Bridge, which is a suspension bridge that crosses northern Tokyo Bay connecting to Shibaura and Odaiba. The bridge first found fame worldwide in Love Generation, a 1997 romantic drama starring Takuya Kimura and Takako Matsu, and acted as a “witness” to the two characters’ relationship. The Rainbow Bridge has now become a popular date spot due to the widespread popularity of the drama series.
To get a good view of the Rainbow Bridge from Odaiba, you can either take the monorail, train, or bus, or walk via the lower deck walkways of the bridge, where you can take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy the scenery of Tokyo Bay, Tokyo Tower, and Mount Fuji.
This famous landmark has also appeared in the Bayside Shakedown series, Destiny of Love, and The Next Generation: Patlabor.
