越川橋梁

The Yoshikawa Bridge stretches across a natural gorge along the Kompoku Line, featuring engineering methods characteristic of pre-war Japanese infrastructure development.

Built in 1939, the Yoshikawa Bridge represents a period of rapid infrastructure expansion in Japan, when numerous transportation projects connected remote regions.

The bridge received official recognition as a Registered Tangible Cultural Property, marking its importance in Japan's architectural and engineering heritage.

Visitors can reach the bridge through local transportation routes in Shari, where they can examine the structural elements and engineering techniques.

The bridge combines functional design elements from the 1930s with traditional Japanese construction principles, demonstrating the evolution of civil engineering.
