Today’s Japan Photo: Great Seto Bridge 瀬戸大橋

For Today’s Japan Photo, we will be visiting the world’s longest two-tiered bridge system – the Great Seto Bridge 瀬戸大橋. The bridges took 40 years and a tremendous amount of money to build.

The Seto Ohashi Bridge is a collective term for the six bridges that connect Kojima in Okayama Prefecture on Honshu and Sakaide of Kagawa Prefecture on Shikoku, spanning five islands, namely Hitsuishi-jima Island, Iwaguro-jima Island, Wasa-jima Island, Yo-shima Island, and Mitsugo-jima Island in the Seto Inland Sea.
