Tanize Suspension Bridge, Suspension bridge in Totsukawa, Japan

The Tanize Suspension Bridge spans 297 meters across the Totsukawa River, reaching a height of 54 meters above the water surface.

Built in 1954 by local villagers who collectively raised 8 million yen, this bridge replaced an unreliable log crossing frequently damaged by floods.

The bridge hosts the annual Tsuribashi Festival featuring traditional taiko drum performances on August 4, drawing visitors from across Japan.

Visitors can reach the bridge by taking a bus from JR Gojo Station to Uenochi Teiryujyo stop, followed by a 33-minute walk to the structure.

The bridge features a wire mesh floor that allows pedestrians to view the flowing river beneath while crossing the structure.
