Amakusa Seto Bridge, Road bridge in Amakusa archipelago, Japan

The Amakusa Seto Bridge spans across the Hondo Seto strait, connecting Japan National Routes 266 and 324 through its steel construction and elevated design.

The completion of this bridge in May 1974 marked a significant advancement in transportation infrastructure, enhancing connectivity between mainland Kyushu and Amakusa islands.

The bridge's orange support structures reflect traditional Shinto design elements, incorporating local architectural principles into modern engineering.

Travelers can reach the bridge through a sequence of train and bus connections from Nagasaki, passing through Isahaya and Shimabara stations.

The bridge features a specialized truss design with four supporting structures that enable ships to pass beneath while maintaining stability during maritime conditions.
