雄橋, Rigid-frame bridge in Sakaiminato, Japan.
The Eshima Ohashi Bridge extends 1.7 kilometers across Lake Nakaumi, connecting Sakaiminato in Tottori Prefecture with Eshima in Shimane Prefecture.
The construction of Eshima Ohashi Bridge in 2004 replaced a drawbridge that caused traffic delays due to its need to open for boats.
The bridge gained international recognition after being featured in a Daihatsu car commercial that highlighted its steep gradients and engineering design.
Visitors can reach the bridge by taking a train to Sakaiminato Station and walking two kilometers, or by using bicycle transportation.
The bridge includes gradients of 6.1% on the Shimane side and 5.1% on the Tottori side, creating an optical illusion when photographed from specific angles.
