Akkeshi Bridge, Sea-spanning bridge in Akkeshi, Japan

The Akkeshi Bridge extends 456.5 meters across the Akkeshi River, connecting the districts of Minatomachi and Ponto in Hokkaido prefecture.

The construction of Akkeshi Bridge in 1972 marked a milestone in Hokkaido's infrastructure development as the first bridge to span across ocean waters.

The deep red structure of Akkeshi Bridge illuminates the night sky, becoming a defining symbol for the residents of this coastal town.

The bridge accommodates both vehicular traffic and pedestrians, providing essential transportation links between different sections of Akkeshi without any entrance fees.

Photographers gather at the bridge during different seasons to capture its reflection in the waters below, particularly during sunrise and sunset hours.
