PONTS OKUIYA NIJU KAZURABASHI

Okuiya Niju Kazurabashi Bridges are two suspension bridges located in the heart of the wilderness of Tokushima Prefecture. They were built using kiwai lianas, a very vigorous climbing plant native to Japan. The Kazurabashi Bridge, the most impressive, is 45 meters long and two meters wide, 14 meters above the water. It was for a long time the only way to travel through the Iya Valley. These bridges are said to be more than 800 years old.
