The moon bridge originated in China and was later introduced to Japan, where it became synonymous with Japanese landscape architecture.

The climbing ascent and descent of the moon bridge has the advantage of conserving this space.

Some wooden moon bridges employ a “woven-arch” style: cross beams are threaded between the longitudinal members, developing inherent stiffness and shape.

The high arch and its reflection form a circle, symbolizing the Moon.
