About Iya Valley & Kazurabashi Bridge ― how to enjoy a walk
One of Japan's three great hidden valleys, deep in the mountains. Famed for "Kazurabashi" — a 45 m suspension bridge woven from Actinidia vines.
Kazurabashi is one-way and requires a toll. The gaps in the bridge floor make it thrilling. The "Pissing Boy" statue and Iya Valley drive are standard. Allow half a day.
Smoking rules and things to watch around Iya Valley & Kazurabashi Bridge
Tourist areas across Tokushima have widely adopted street-smoking bans, with fines for violations. Indoors, the revised Health Promotion Act mandates smoke-free environments by default; smokers must use a designated smoking room, a heated-tobacco-only room, or an outdoor designated smoking spot.
The suspension bridge and valley trails are entirely non-smoking and fire-prohibited (wilderness wildfire risk). Smoking only at designated areas of Kazurabashi Yume-Butai (rest stop) or parking.
How to find smoking areas near Iya Valley & Kazurabashi Bridge
- Check designated smoking areas inside or in front of major stations first
- Use indoor smoking rooms in large shopping complexes, department stores, and airports — weather-proof and reliable
- Heated-tobacco-only rooms sometimes allow eating and drinking; filter by your device type
