J-Drama Pilgrimage | ドクターX Doctor-X (2012) — 豊海橋 / OPE.3 Run to the Hospital

In OPE.3 of 『ドクターX～外科医・大門未知子～』, broadcast on 8 November 2012, Daimon Michiko is shown running toward the hospital across Toyomi Bridge (豊海橋) over the Nihonbashi River. The National Location Guide identifies the bridge directly for this scene and places it at the Shinkawa side of Chuo City, making it one of the clearest public-street Doctor-X locations from the first series.

Toyomi Bridge is a real historic bridge at the mouth end of the Nihonbashi River. Chuo City still maps the bridge-side public area at Nihonbashi-Hakozakicho 19-1, while a current engineering account notes that the present Vierendeel bridge dates to 1927 and was raised during 2018–2019 works without changing its characteristic appearance. This memory uses Chuo City’s mapped bridge-side point, 35.677583979226945, 139.7868482919848, rather than inventing the exact place where Michiko or the camera stood.

For pilgrims, the value here is the surviving river-and-bridge geometry: it lets you reconnect a fast-moving OPE.3 exterior with a recognizable piece of central Tokyo. Use the public pedestrian route, watch normal bridge traffic, and treat the pin as a site-level reference rather than a reconstruction of the 2012 shot.
