Hoi An Ancient Town, Vietnam | Chùa Cầu Bridge: A Century-Old Covered Bridge Where Japanese and Vietnamese Cultures Meet, Quietly Preserving the Ancient City's Prosperity and Transcendence Among the many landmarks of Hoi An Ancient Town, the Chùa Cầu Bridge (Chùa Cầu) stands out. Built in the early 17th century by Japanese immigrants, this wooden bridge is also known as the "Japanese Bridge." It serves not only as a bridge for transportation but also as a symbol of cultural exchange. The bridge is constructed of solid wood and bluestone, with a tiled roof and intricate carvings along its sides. Inside, a porch enshrines the Bac Tai, the God of War, praying for good weather and safe journeys. Walking across the bridge, one feels the weight of history, as if every plank bears the footprints and stories of merchants and travelers. At dusk, lanterns are lit, and the Chùa Cầu Bridge's silhouette is reflected on the river, like a scene frozen in time. Quietly spanning the stream of the ancient town, it has witnessed centuries of prosperity and transformation in Hoi An.
