乙姫大橋, Steel bridge in Nakatsugawa, Japan

The Otohime Bridge spans 316 meters across the Kiso River, featuring a combined steel box girder and truss structure with a width of 8.3 meters.

Constructed in 1995, the bridge initially connected Sakashita town in Gifu Prefecture with Yamaguchi village in Nagano Prefecture until administrative changes in 2005.

The bridge railings display relief sculptures of Princess Otohime, referencing local folklore about the Dragon Palace and the tale of Urashima Taro.

The bridge serves as an agricultural road connecting local communities while providing pedestrian access and views of the Kiso River below.

Located 300 meters upstream from Otohime Rock, the bridge incorporates elements from a regional version of the Urashima Taro legend where the princess saves him.
