🇯🇵One of the three most amazing bridges in Japan📍Iyaman Bridge

Man Bridge is an ancient suspension bridge, 45 meters long, 2 meters wide, and 14 meters above the river. It is woven with mountain vines and steel cables. It was an important lifeline for mountain residents in the past. Originally, such bridges were everywhere, but now there are only a few left. Now it is used for sightseeing, allowing tourists to step onto the Man Bridge and experience the scene of mountain residents crossing the bridge in the past!

The vine bridge is one-way, and most people will walk forward while holding on to the vines on both sides. It doesn’t seem too scary when standing on the side of the bridge, because I am used to playing exciting amusement rides!

You can immediately feel the fear and excitement when you stand on the bridge. Looking down from the bridge, you can see that the gaps between the wooden boards are quite large, and some of the boards seem to be very thin. It would be a bit weak to walk without holding on to the sides! In addition, many people walking on the bridge at the same time will cause the bridge to shake and vibrate from time to time. You really don’t know unless you experience it yourself!

Iya Gorge is located deep in the mountains of Shikoku and still retains its unspoiled natural scenery. Looking down from the bridge, you can clearly see the clear water of the Iya Gorge!
