Sengandoi, Navigable aqueduct in Mishima and Shimizu, Japan

The Sengandoi aqueduct spans across water channels, enabling boats to navigate between the municipalities of Mishima and Shimizu through elevated waterways.

Engineers constructed this transportation infrastructure during Japan's period of water management development to support regional commerce and agricultural activities.

The structure appears in traditional Japanese artworks and prints, including the series Famous Places in Various Provinces, displayed at the Philadelphia Museum.

Located at coordinates 35.11575 latitude and 138.904694 longitude, the aqueduct maintains water flow while allowing vessels to cross overhead.

This engineering achievement demonstrates how Japanese architects adapted canal technology to overcome geographical barriers between Mishima and Shimizu regions.
