Uminonakamichi Bridge, Arch bridge in Higashi-ku, Japan.

The Uminonakamichi Bridge spans across Hakata Bay with its iron tied arch structure connecting the mainland to Island City over 700 meters.

The construction and inauguration of Uminonakamichi Bridge in October 2002 represented a major advancement in transportation infrastructure for the Fukuoka region.

The bridge name derives from the Umi no Nakamichi area, reflecting the connection between local communities and their maritime environment.

Regular maintenance ensures the structural integrity of the bridge, which serves both vehicular traffic and pedestrians crossing between Higashi-ku and Island City.

The bridge structure provides photographers with numerous vantage points to capture the intersection of engineering and natural landscapes across Hakata Bay.
