    Oita Hayami-gun Hijimachi Fujiwara

    大分県日出町の八坂川に架かる石橋です。 国道10号線が八坂川を通る際に見えました。美しい2連アーチの石橋だったので、素通りできず、急遽立ち寄りました。 すぐ近くに駐車スペースが広くあります。少し遠目から橋を眺めながら近づき、最後は橋を渡りました。 この橋は八坂川に架かる日出町唯一の石橋で、『赤松のめがね橋』として親しまれる橋です。 橋から国道10号線の橋も見えます。現代のものの方が技術的には素晴...

Oita Areas

A trip to Oita is tantamount to a long soak in the Beppu baths. The mountainous, coastal prefecture of Oita is renowned for having more onsen than any other prefecture in Japan, most of which lie in the city of Beppu on the west coast of Kyushu, recognizable by its pungent sulphuric aroma and the clouds of steam that puff up across the hillside. Away from the Beppu hot springs await mountains, waterfalls, and temples, so don’t hesitate to explore Oita a little further.
