Megane-bashi of Isahaya, Stone arch bridge in Isahaya Park, Japan

The Megane-bashi consists of two arches spanning across its length, making it one of the largest double-arch stone bridges in Japan.

Local feudal lords commissioned the construction of this stone bridge in 1839, aiming to create an enduring structure over the Honmyo River.

The bridge earned designation as the first stone bridge to receive National Important Cultural Property status in Japan, marking its architectural significance.

Visitors can reach the bridge through a 15-minute walk or 5-minute drive from JR Isahaya Station, with parking available at Kamiyama Park.

Following severe flooding, authorities relocated the entire bridge structure to its current position within Isahaya Park, preserving its original form.
