Akebono Köprüsü, Suspension bridge in Kobe, Japan
The Akebono Bridge extends across the Akashi Strait, connecting Kobe city with Awaji Island through six traffic lanes and emergency lanes.
The construction of the bridge started in 1988 and continued until 1998, with modifications following the 1995 Kobe earthquake that extended its length.
The bridge represents Japanese engineering excellence, standing as a monument to the nation's commitment to connecting communities across challenging maritime passages.
Visitors can access the bridge observation deck through Maiko Station on the JR Sanyo Line, with guided tours available to the 300-meter-high towers.
The structure withstands wind speeds up to 290 kilometers per hour and features 1,800 lights that illuminate the strait during special occasions.
