Sanj hashi () is a bridge in Kyoto, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. It spans the Kamo River as part of Sanj-dri ( Third Avenue). It is well-known because it served as the ending location for both the Nakasend and the Tkaid. It is unclear when this bridge was first built, but there are records of Toyotomi Hideyoshi orders for it to be repaired in 1590, as well as one of the original giboshi () (onion-shaped posts that are located on bridges, shrines and temples in Japan). The current concrete bridge, which includes two lanes for driving and a walking path on either side, was built in 1950.
