Kamikochi (上高地, Kamikōchi) is a scenic valley with an altitude of 1,500m in the Northern Japan Alps of Nagano Prefecture. It is located in between Matsumoto and Takayama city. The Azusa River flows the entire length of the valley.
To preserve the environment, private vehicles are not permitted to enter Kamikochi. So we reached Sawando by our car and from there we took a Kamikochi shuttle bus.
Kappa Bridge is a suspension bridge over the Azusa .The structure of the bridge is wooden and it has become a distinctive symbol of Kamikochi.
