Kozuya Bridge (Nagare Bridge)
Built in 1953 (Showa 28), the Nagarekibashi is one of the longest wooden bridges in Japan, measuring 356.5 m. Its official name is Kamitsuya Bridge, and it is characterized by its design that allows it to be washed away even when water levels rise due to typhoons or heavy rain. This simple structure is reminiscent of the original Japanese landscape and has been the filming location for many movies and period dramas.
