Connecting the mainland and the sandbar of Amanohashidate, the "Kaisen-kyo Bridge" is a very rare bridge with a mechanism where the center of the bridge rotates 90 degrees every time a large ship passes. The sight of this historic bridge, built in the Taisho era, slowly turning with a sound is a masterpiece, and many tourists capture the moment with their cameras. Waiting for the ship to pass is a luxurious time to feel the leisurely atmosphere of the port town. While crossing the bridge, you can overlook the transparent sea and passing boats, making it a popular landmark that marks the exciting start of an Amanohashidate stroll.
