長六橋, Historic bridge in Chuo Ward, Kumamoto, Japan.
The Chorokubashi Bridge spans across the Shirakawa River, serving as a crucial transportation link on National Route 3 in central Kumamoto Prefecture.
The initial construction of Chorokubashi Bridge dates back to 1601, established by Kato Kiyomasa as the sole bridge crossing the Shirakawa River in the castle town.
The bridge stands as a symbol of Kumamoto's engineering achievements, with its structure being documented extensively by the Japan Society of Civil Engineers.
Multiple train stations surround the bridge within walking distance, making it accessible through various public transportation options throughout the day.
The bridge has undergone eight reconstructions due to flooding, with its most recent renovation in 1990 transforming it into a prestressed concrete girder structure.
